What Lotion is Best for Tattoo Aftercare? A Guide for PMU Artists
Choosing the right lotion for semi-permanent makeup aftercare is crucial for optimal healing and client satisfaction. Many lotions on the market claim to be suitable, but not all are created equal. This article clarifies which lotions are best and why, helping you provide the highest standard of care.
Understanding the Needs of Healing Skin
Immediately after a semi-permanent makeup procedure (like microblading or lip blushing), the skin is vulnerable. It needs a lotion that's:
* Hydrating: Dryness can lead to scabbing and impaired pigment retention.
* Unscented: Fragrances can irritate sensitive skin.
* Non-comedogenic: It shouldn't clog pores, which can hinder healing.
* Gentle: Harsh chemicals can cause inflammation and adverse reactions.
Recommended Lotion Types for PMU Aftercare
We generally recommend fragrance-free, unscented lotions containing simple, natural ingredients. Look for lotions that prominently feature:
* Aloe vera: Known for its soothing and healing properties.
* Hyaluronic acid: A potent humectant that attracts and retains moisture.
* Vitamin E: An antioxidant that supports skin repair.
Avoid lotions with added colors, preservatives (parabens), or alcohols, which can dry out the skin and interfere with the healing process.
What to Avoid
Certain ingredients can negatively impact the healing of semi-permanent makeup:
* Petroleum-based products: These can trap moisture and impede healing.
* Fragrant lotions: These can cause irritation and allergic reactions.
* Lotions with harsh chemicals: These can damage the delicate skin.
Always advise your clients to avoid harsh scrubs, exfoliants, and sun exposure during the healing period.
Client Communication is Key
Clearly communicating aftercare instructions, including the recommended lotion type and application method, is paramount. Provide your clients with a written aftercare guide and address any questions or concerns they may have. Using a consistent, high-quality aftercare routine contributes significantly to the longevity and vibrancy of their semi-permanent makeup.

Does it come with a Super Glue? I am afraid that the lashes will pop off during the lash lift process.
Eyelash lifting
If I apply perming lotion after using glue balm, will it cause the eyelashes to fall off the silicone perm rod?
Our glue balm have two formulas, regular formula and anti-falling formula. If you are used to using plastic wrap or covering strips during lash lifting, you can choose one of them; if you don’t use them during lash lifting, we recommend that you choose the anti-falling formula to ensure that after you use the perming lotion, the liquid in the perming lotion will not dissolve the glue balm, thus achieving the anti-falling effect.

Powder Pigment
What is the difference between inorganic and organic permanent makeup ink?
The main difference between organic and inorganic pigments lies in their chemical composition, properties and performance. Here are some key points to distinguish them:
Chemical composition:
Organic tattoo pigment are composed of carbon-based compounds, usually containing carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and other elements (such as nitrogen, sulfur, etc.). Their molecular structure is complex and usually has organic chemical characteristics.
Inorganic tattoo pigments are mainly composed of inorganic compounds and usually do not contain carbon. Such pigments may contain metal oxides, salts, minerals, etc.
Color saturation:
Organic permanent makeup pigment usually have higher color saturation and brighter colors. Inorganic permanent makeup pigment are generally more stable in color, have strong hiding power, and have low color saturation.
Stability:
Organic cosmetic tattoo pigment have poor stability in light, heat and chemical environments and may fade. Inorganic pigments are generally more stable and resistant to high temperatures and chemical erosion.
Permeability:
Organic pigments are usually composed of organic compounds, which often have good water solubility and can dissolve in water faster. Therefore, organic pigments have stronger permeability than inorganic pigments.
In general, organic and inorganic pigments have their own advantages and disadvantages and are suitable for different application scenarios and needs. In order to take into account the brightness, saturation and stability of the ink, most tattoo supplies ink currently use a mixed formula of organic and inorganic.
