Every tattoo has its own story. Every canvas deserves care.
4 oz Jar
A tattoo is more than ink on skin. It’s an expression of individuality, a memory, a milestone, or a piece of art you chose to carry with you. And while the tattoo artist brings that vision to life, caring for your skin afterward is just as much a part of the experience.
Introducing Beyond the Ink, a botanical tattoo balm designed to nourish, soothe, and condition tattooed skin throughout its natural recovery and long after the artwork is complete.
Calendula, yarrow, chamomile, lavender, and plantain are infused into jojoba and olive oils and blended with beeswax to create a balm that softens on contact and glides smoothly across the skin. Its buttery consistency provides lasting moisture and a soft, conditioned finish without feeling heavy or overly greasy.
Whether you’re caring for a newer tattoo or maintaining artwork you’ve had for years, Beyond the Ink brings botanical skin care into your tattoo-care routine.
The Botanicals Behind the Balm
Calendula
Freshly tattooed skin can feel tender, tight, and irritated as it begins its natural recovery process. Calendula’s traditional vulnerary and anti-inflammatory properties help soothe stressed skin, while its oil-extractable botanical compounds contribute to a comforting, restorative skin-care experience.
Yarrow
The tattooing process places physical stress on the skin, often resulting in redness, tenderness, and localized inflammation. Yarrow’s traditional vulnerary, astringent, and anti-inflammatory properties complement the skin’s natural recovery process, helping soothe and condition tattooed areas.
Chamomile
Tenderness, irritation, and tightness can linger as tattooed skin begins to recover. Chamomile’s calming and anti-inflammatory properties help comfort sensitive skin, making the moisturizing process more soothing during this delicate stage.
Lavender
Freshly tattooed skin can remain sensitive as it settles and renews itself. Lavender’s traditional soothing properties help comfort stressed skin, while its naturally aromatic constituents contribute to the balm’s gentle botanical character.
Plantain
As tattooed skin enters the peeling stage, dryness, flaking, and itching can become particularly noticeable. Plantain’s traditional vulnerary and anti-itch properties make it especially relevant during this stage, helping soothe the discomfort associated with dry, irritated skin.
Caring For Your New Ink
A beautiful tattoo deserves thoughtful aftercare. While every tattoo and healing experience is different, a few simple habits can make a difference in keeping your skin comfortable and your artwork looking its best.
Follow your tattoo artist’s instructions. Every artist has their preferred aftercare process, including when to remove protective coverings and begin moisturizing.
Keep it clean. Gently cleanse the tattoo with clean hands, lukewarm water, and a mild, fragrance-free cleanser once the protective covering has been removed according to your artist’s instructions.
Pat, don’t rub. Gently pat dry with a clean towel. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing sensitive skin
A little goes a long way. When moisturizing is appropriate, apply only a thin layer of a suitable aftercare product. Your skin should feel conditioned, not heavily coated.
Let the peeling happen naturally. Flaking and itching are common parts of tattoo recovery. Avoid scratching, picking, or pulling away peeling skin.
Protect your artwork. Avoid soaking your tattoo, unnecessary friction, and direct sun exposure while it heals. Once healed, use sunscreen to help preserve its appearance.
How to Use Beyond the Ink
With clean, dry hands, take a small amount of balm and gently spread a thin, even layer over clean, dry, intact tattooed skin.
The buttery consistency softens with body warmth, allowing the balm to glide easily without excessive rubbing or tugging. A little goes a long way - a light application is enough to leave skin feeling nourished and conditioned.
Reapply as needed to relieve dryness and maintain soft, comfortable skin.
For recently completed tattoos, follow your tattoo artist’s aftercare instructions and wait until the skin barrier has recovered before introducing this botanical balm. Avoid applying to open, weeping, or otherwise compromised areas.
Beyond the initial recovery period, continue using Beyond the Ink as part of your regular skin-care routine to moisturize tattooed skin and maintain the appearance of your artwork.
More Than Just Ink
Together, calendula, yarrow, chamomile, lavender, and plantain create a balanced botanical blend rooted in traditional vulnerary and skin-soothing herbal practices. Combined with the conditioning properties of jojoba and olive oils, these herbs create a balm that brings moisture, softness, and comfort to the skin that carries your art.
Beyond the Ink is for the artwork you love and the skin that wears it - because caring for your tattoo doesn’t end when the peeling stops.
The needle does its work. Nature does hers.
Every tattoo has its own story. Every canvas deserves care.
