Complete guide: UNISTAR balsamFIX Watermelon 200ml - Tattoo Care Butter
Unistar BalsamFix Watermelon 200ml is a tattoo aftercare balm with a watermelon scent and citrus notes, designed for the aftercare routine following a tattoo session. It contains shea butter (Butyrospermum Parkii), mango seed oil (Magnifera Indica), avocado oil (Persea Gratissima), and coconut oil, ingredients with hydrating and soothing properties for freshly tattooed skin. It is intended for both tattoo artists, who can keep it handy in the studio, and clients who need a home care product throughout the healing process. It is part of the BalsamFix range, also available in other scents (e.g., Mango&Peach), with the same base formula.
How to use
- Wash your hands before touching the tattooed area, especially in the first few days after the session.
- Gently clean the tattoo according to your artist's instructions (usually lukewarm water and mild soap), then pat dry with a clean towel until completely dry.
- Take a small amount of BalsamFix on your fingertips — you don't need much, the product is designed to cover a large area with a small amount.
- Apply a thin, even layer over the entire tattooed area.
- Gently massage until absorbed, without rubbing the still-sensitive skin vigorously.
- Repeat application whenever the skin feels dry or tight throughout the day, for the entire natural healing process (typically 2-4 weeks).
- Close the tube cap tightly after each use to protect the remaining product.
- After complete healing, you can continue to use it occasionally as a general moisturizer, including on older tattoos.
Tips from us
- Apply a thin layer — excess product doesn't speed up anything, it just leaves the skin greasy and hard to cover with clothes.
- Use a clean applicator or wash your hands every time you take product from the tube to avoid contaminating the remaining amount.
- In a studio, avoid letting multiple clients dip their fingers directly into the same tube — dispense a separate amount for each person.
- The formula contains fragrance, citral, and limonene (visible in the ingredient list) — if you know you have sensitive skin or are prone to fragrance allergies, test on a small area before applying to the entire tattoo.
- Keep the tube closed, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat, to maintain its texture and scent.
- If you prefer a different scent, the BalsamFix range also comes in variants like Mango&Peach, with an identical formula — only the scent differs.
Warning: Cosmetic product for external use only, exclusively on skin — avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes, and in case of contact rinse with water. Do not apply on open, infected, or allergic-reaction-prone skin without first consulting the artist who did the tattoo or a doctor. Contains fragrant ingredients (fragrance, citral, limonene) as listed on the product label, which may be allergenic for sensitive individuals — test on a small area before extensive use. Continue to follow the care instructions given by your artist; the product complements, not replaces, the aftercare routine recommended in the studio.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a 200ml tube last?▾
According to the product description, the amount is sufficient for the entire healing cycle of most tattoos, as it is applied in a thin layer and absorbs quickly. Actual consumption depends on the size of the tattoo and how often you apply the balm, so it may vary from person to person.
What is the difference between BalsamFix Watermelon and other scents in the range, for example Mango&Peach?▾
The difference is only the scent — Watermelon has a watermelon smell, Mango&Peach has mango and peach. The base formula and active ingredients are the same, so the choice between variants is a matter of olfactory preference, not effectiveness.
Is the watermelon scent suitable for men as well?▾
Yes, it is a neutral and fresh scent, not floral or overly sweet, so it works well regardless of gender. Many male clients choose it precisely for its discreet character.
How do I keep the product hygienic if I use it on multiple clients in the studio?▾
Wash your hands before each use and, if possible, dispense a separate amount for each client instead of dipping your fingers directly into the tube multiple times. Close the cap tightly after each application — the tube has a stopper designed to prevent leakage and contamination of the product.
Can I use BalsamFix on older tattoos as well, not just during the healing period?▾
Yes, it can also be used on older tattoos as a general moisturizer for tattooed skin, not just during the initial healing phase.
Does the balm leave a greasy or oily feeling on the skin?▾
The texture is described as easy to apply and quick-absorbing, with no visible greasy residue, allowing it to be used during the day, even under clothes.

Many men prefer this variant precisely due to its fresh and non-intrusive character. The fragrance dissipates quickly after application. How quickly are results visible with Balsam Fix? Results are visible from the first applications: skin becomes more hydrated, itching decreases, and comfort sensation increases.

Clients who consistently use Balsam Fix report smoother healing and a final result with more vibrant colors. Can I use Balsam Fix on old tattoos? Yes, Balsam Fix can also be used on old tattoos as a general hydration and care product. Regular hydration of tattooed skin contributes to maintaining the vibrant appearance of the tattoo long-term. Apply a thin layer whenever you feel the tattooed skin is dry or needs additional hydration. Does Balsam Fix Watermelon contain parabens?

If you notice irritation, excessive redness, or discomfort, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist. Can I apply Balsam Fix before going out in the sun? Balsam Fix does not contain SPF sun protection, so it should not be the only product you apply before sun exposure. During healing, completely avoid direct sun exposure. After complete healing, first apply Balsam Fix for hydration and then an SPF 50+ cream for sun protection, especially on color tattoos.
