wheresmypiggy Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 I got a new tattoo on my foot. Its gir for those who care. In robot form of course Anywho. Obviously I have a few tattoos but none have ever acted like this one. Probably because its the first one I have gotten in winter. I can't keep it from getting so insanely dry. Its starting to crack and peel and I just can't have that. Doenst matter how much A&D or cow utter cream I put on it. Any suggestions? I might just wrap it back up in saran wrap again. But that feels yucky.
bean Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 For my last few tattoos, I have used Vaseline intensive care advanced healing lotion, fragrance free. It takes care of the dryness without being greasy and goopy, and made my tatts heal faster. Hope it helps!
Guest Game of Chance Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 after the first couple of days, let it breathe... Also...hate to be a nazi, but its Karma Chameleon.
Homicidalheathen Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I saw this thread and thought of Marcs new name on here.......heh. I like vasaline but my friend suggested Farmers Friend. Whatever that is...Feed store perhaps? Got some herb as the base.....I hear good for skin.
Rayne Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I've been thinking about getting a Gir tattoo myself ...

Msterbeau Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Did someone call? Oh... nevermind.. There was no doom involved.
Crazed Vampyress Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 ive used Tattoo Goo on most of mine (the places i get my tats sell it) one guy suggest A&D ointment, tho i cant speak from personal experience on that one.

I dont believe its healthy for your skin. My personal opinion. I have been using A & D ointment. I've just never had a tattoo this dry before. Its getting better now that I am using more cow utter cream. The color didnt hold for shit though. I'm disappointed. Oh well. I'll just go back and get it redone.
