Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Body Lotion 400 ml

For my first tattoo, I ordered a £20 cream from Amazon, which I'll be honest worked well. But for my second, I told the tattooist about the cream, and he said just go to Boots and get a bottle of Vaseline intensive care. They didn't have any, so I ordered it from Amazon. This was three years ago, and I've used it for every tattoo since. It works just as well as these fancy creams you get labelled tattoo-something-or-other. My steps for caring for a new tattoo are below (depending on size). 1. Keep it wrapped for two hours after or until clingfilm falls off. 2. Gently wash then air-dry until bedtime. 3. Before bed, gently wash and dab on the Vaseline intensive care cream. (air-dry while sleeping if you can). 4. For the next five days, gently wash and apply cream three times a day. 5. See how it feels and looks then continue creaming as necessary. That's it. Adding the cream to an older tattoo also seems to rejuvenate it. None of my tattoos have itched while using this cream which is a godsend. It's also a fraction of the price of the fancy creams and works just as well, if not better. I'm bigging up this cream for tattoos because it saves me money, works just as well as fancy stuff, helps repair the skin, stops itching, protects it all day, and there's no weird smell with it. Highly recommend for a new tattoo.

Someone who suffers from extreme dry skin this is the one! I’ve used every cream you can think of and nothing compares to this. It keeps me hydrated all day u til I shower the next day and put on again. It’s amazing. Dried quick non sticky or greasy just amazing. No scent so good for sensitive skin.

Have been using this for years and it's really good at keeping skin clear and moisturised.

Good lotion and keeps my skin soft and doesn’t feel very sticky.

Been using this for years on both body and face. I have sensitive dry skin on my face but never had any issues. Found it to be more hydrating than most face creams.

I really like this, not too greasy and it’s unscented. Plus the bottle stands upside down easily so you get every last bit out Great price too

Great product, as described - non greasy once applied and leaves skin soft A+

This is my go to moisturiser. Leaves my skin feeling fresh.
