Complete guide: Vaseline Inktrox Fresh Yellow 150ml
InkTrox Fresh Yellow ointment is a scented cosmetic ointment, in a 150 ml container, designed for tattoo studios. It has a lemon/citrus note and is suitable for both tattoo artists during the session and tattoo owners. Its main role is to ensure proper machine glide on the skin and protect the worked area, reducing discomfort caused by friction.
How to use
- Before the session, portion out the necessary amount of InkTrox Fresh Yellow ointment into a clean secondary container — do not insert tools or gloved fingers directly into the original jar.
- Apply a thin layer to the clean, dry skin of the area to be tattooed.
- Gently massage to distribute the layer evenly, without rubbing too hard.
- Reapply during the session whenever you notice the skin drying out or needle friction increasing.
- You can also use a little ointment to secure the ink cups on the work station, so they don't slip or spill.
- At the end, remove the excess from the skin according to your usual aftercare routine for the worked area.
- Close the container lid tightly and store it in a dry, cool place, away from heat and direct light.
Tips from us
- Never dip unsterile fingers or tools directly into the original jar — portion it out separately for each client to avoid contaminating the rest of the product.
- A thin layer is enough; too much ointment does not improve glide and can make it harder to see the lines being worked on.
- As a scented ointment, ask the client if they have sensitivities to fragrances or citrus before using it on large areas of skin.
- The distinct yellow color can help you visually spot already covered areas more easily, especially during long sessions.
- Keep the jar sealed tightly between uses and away from heat, so the texture and fragrance are not altered.
- If you have clients with highly reactive skin, it's useful to have a neutral, fragrance-free ointment on hand as an alternative.
Warning: InkTrox Fresh Yellow ointment is a cosmetic product, not a disinfectant or antiseptic – it does not replace the disinfection/preparation steps of the skin before tattooing, but is used additionally for glide and protection. Being scented, it contains among its ingredients fragrance allergens listed according to cosmetic regulations (e.g., Limonene, Citral, Linalool, Citronellol, Eugenol) – for clients with very sensitive skin or known allergies to fragrances, a test on a small area is recommended before applying to larger surfaces. For hygiene, always portion the necessary amount into a secondary container and do not insert used tools directly into the original jar, to avoid contaminating the rest of the product.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly is InkTrox Fresh Yellow ointment used for?▾
It is a scented cosmetic ointment used during tattooing to ensure the machine glides over the skin and to protect the worked area from irritation caused by friction. Some artists also use it to secure ink cups on the work station, so they don't slip or spill during the session.
How do I maintain hygiene when using the same jar for multiple clients?▾
Never insert used fingers or tools directly into the original jar. Portion out the necessary amount for each client into a clean secondary container before the session, so the main jar remains untouched and free from cross-contamination risk.
Is it suitable for clients with sensitive skin or fragrance allergies?▾
Being a scented version, its ingredients include fragrance allergens listed according to cosmetic regulations (Limonene, Citral, Linalool, Citronellol, Eugenol). For clients with highly reactive skin or known allergies to fragrances/citrus, we recommend either testing on a small area first, or using a neutral, fragrance-free ointment if you have one available.
What is the difference compared to the other scents in the InkTrox Fresh range (Green, Blue)?▾
They are part of the same range of scented cosmetic ointments InkTrox Fresh, each color having its own olfactory note — Fresh Yellow has a lemon/citrus aroma. Functionally, they all have the same role of lubricating and protecting the skin during tattooing; the choice between them mainly depends on your or your client's preference for a particular fragrance.
How thick should the layer applied to the skin be?▾
A thin layer, applied with gentle massage, is sufficient. There is no need for large amounts — you can reapply during the session if you notice the skin drying out or needle friction increasing, instead of applying a thick layer from the start.
Is it suitable only for artists, or can people who already have tattoos use it too?▾
According to the product description, it is suitable for both tattoo artists during the session and tattoo owners. We recommend following the instructions on the packaging and, if needed, advice from your artist about the proper routine for tattooed skin.
