We like to keep it simple and clean! Every ingredient that we included in our original formula is there for a specific therapeutic reason. This results in a pure, concentrated, and highly effective formula which can be used in every stage of the tattoo process. It helps to make your skin softer and suppler, offers awesome glide in the tattoo process, and helps moisturize and heal wounded skin afterward.
Propolis
In short, propolis is a waxy substance formed by the combination of tree sap and beeswax that bees use to create their nests. It contains a very complex mixture of anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial compounds. Its widest use has been for its antibacterial and anti-fungal properties, useful for protecting a bee’s nest from the elements. This function was co-opted by humans thousands of years ago for wound healing and for the treatment of skin and dental infections. Due to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, Propolis speeds up the wound-healing process, reduces redness, and retains more moisture for a healthier, more vibrant complexion. Rockabilly Tattoo Butter is the first tattoo aftercare product powered by this miracle ingredient — setting a new standard in natural healing and skin regeneration.
SHEA BUTTER
100 % pure, unrefined shea butter aids in numerous skin conditions. It has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe irritated and wounded skin. It’s quickly absorbed by your skin and provides immediate softness and smoothness thanks to its extreme moisturising and hydrating properties.
BEESWAX
Beeswax is a beehive product, carefully crafted by honeybees. It forms a natural barrier on the skin surface, protecting skin from irritants and harsh weather. Beeswax is particularly exceptional because it allows the skin to breathe, keeping pores free from blockage, making it beneficial for tattooed skin.
COCONUT OIL
Coconut oil is a powerful moisturiser that is beneficial for restoring dry or flaking skin. Perfect for the 2nd healing stage of a tattoo, infamous due to the dreaded itching and flaky skin. While Shea Butter will be absorbed quickly into your skin, coconut oil will nourish your skin for several hours.
GRAPESEED OIL
Biochemical research into grape seed oil has found it is rich in oligomeric proanthocyanidins. Otherwise known by the acronym OPC, these flavonoids remove free radicals and promote the restoration of collagen at the cellular level, making your skin feel firmer and minimising more signs of damage.
MANGO BUTTER
Mango butter reduces the degeneration of skin and restores elasticity like nothing else! Stretch marks and scars become more pliable and less noticeable after using this wonderful butter. It also protects skin from damaging UV radiation, and it’s often used in UV protection lotions and creams.
VANILLA EXTRACT
Vanilla extract reverses skin ageing. It is very rich in antioxidants, which neutralise free radicals and reverse skin damage. It helps to slow down signs of ageing like fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots. It not only makes your skin rejuvenated but also smells lovely.
VITAMIN E
Vitamin E is a nutrient that the body cannot make on its own. It comes from certain foods, such as nuts and seeds, and supplements. Vitamin E is an antioxidant, which means that it can stop or reverse the damage that free radicals cause to cells. It can also reduce inflammation. The body stores vitamin E in the skin, in both the outer epidermis and the deeper dermis layers. This is one reason why many skin care products contain vitamin E and why it is essential to take care of every layer of freshly tattooed skin.
