The Three-Step Tattoo Aftercare Routine
Most people overcomplicate healing, or reach for whatever is in the
bathroom cupboard. Fresh ink needs three things, in order.
Fragrance-free across all three. No added perfume, no parabens, no
petroleum, no fillers. We publish the full ingredient list for every
product, in order, with plain explanations of the ones that sound like
they need explaining. See every ingredient
Step I
Line Work Gentle Wash.
A mild cleanser that lifts away plasma, excess ink and build-up without stripping the skin. Twice a day for the first two weeks.
Step II
Stand Fast Aftercare Cream.
Lightweight daily moisture for the first two weeks, while the skin is doing its repair work. Thin layer, not a thick smother.
STEP III
Hold Fast Tattoo Balm.
A richer balm to seal in moisture and protect the work long-term, once the peeling has finished. This is the one you keep using at six months and six years.
— WHY PENGUIN TATTOO CO —
Aftercare That belongs on an Aussie's skin
BUILT FOR TATTOOS
Not a repurposed body lotion. Not a face cream pulling double duty. Every formula made specifically for what tattoo ink and healing skin actually need.
MADE FOR THE AUSSIE CLIMATE
Imported aftercare wasn't built for our beaches, our gyms, or our humidity. Penguin was formulated locally for the way Australian skin actually heals.
AS CLEAN AS THE LINE WORK
Fragrance-free. Cruelty-free. No parabens, petroleum, or filler ingredients. Your skin reads every label - we keep ours short.
WE STAND BY THE BATCH
Aftercare not pulling its weight? Tell us what's up within 30 days and we'll make it right - refund, replacement, or credit. No need to send anything back. We back the formulas. You will too.
