Natural Tattoo Aftercare

 

Natural Tattoo Aftercare

Aloe Vera is famed for its skin soothing properties, and when it comes to tattoo aftercare, soothed skin is exactly what you need. Sorry, Gertrude (my plant) but I'll be rubbing your gooey insides all over me. Ooer! Natural substances with no added anything has surely got to be better for you?

Even though aloe veras are hardy by nature, I still felt a pang of guilt when breaking off parts of the plant. On the upside, the aloe's insides are very slimy and there's something really quite fun about the whole process; aloe vera feels very light on the skin with none of the greasy feeling that can come with a cream.
