I had a hand tattoo done a few years ago in Caracas .... After much debating and gesturing with obvious lingo issues in a pharmacy type of place I left with cream that did the trick , both for the healing process and itching ..... I was later informed that the ointment was in fact pile cream !! ..... it did work a treat though ......

"witch hazel gel, keeps your skin cool when its going thro that burning stage
the feeling I have now  "
try it, its like a blue gel, works in the same way as after sun I guess, takes the sting out the burn, feels cold when you apply it and cools your skin down |

"what do you use for the aftercare of a new tattoo we find dove or bepanthen is great 
You can't beat vaseline"
I've never met a tattooist yet that recommends Vaseline, everyone I've ever spoke to says avoid Vaseline. |

I just had one done at NY Ink and he said soap and water twice a day and a good moisturiser... I've had two before both wrapped in cling film with germoline and they were fine but I took his advice and it worked a treat. |

I hate Bepanthan, it's greasy, horrid and doesn't come off well. I just wash with soapy water twice a day and put E45 cream, or another flavour free moisturiser on as often as needed. Never had any problems yet. |

I used bepanthen once and the tattoo got infected (probably just bad luck), every other time I've used Preparation-H. Yes, its pile cream but it stops infection, promotes healing and stops the itching... |

Ive always used Bepanthan as well, Vaseline draws out the colour so don't see why anyone would say to use it. I also do the slapping rather than scratching when it gets itchy haha |
