Does tattoo aftercare balm help minimize redness and swelling? | QM Makeup Guide

Numb up tattoo cream mainly acts on the epidermis and dermis of the skin, blocking the transmission of nerve signals, thereby quickly relieving pain and discomfort.

Different numbing products have different duration of effect. For example, body numbing cream lasts longer than eyebrow numb tattoo cream. For the specific duration, please check the product description or contact us for more details.

In terms of penetration speed, numbing essence penetrates the skin faster than numbing cream and takes effect faster, but it has higher requirements for the operator and needs to avoid the numbing liquid from flowing into the eyes. For new beginners and semi permanent eye makeup tattoo treatment, we recommend using numbing cream.

The ink is not colored on the skin after the tattoo operation, which is a common problem encountered by novice tattoo artists. There may be several reasons:

Technical problems: If the tattoo technician is not skilled, the ink may not be properly implanted into the skin during the operation, resulting in the inability to color the colorant.

Selected ink type: The type of ink used does not match the tool used, resulting in the inability to color the colorant, such as using liquid ink with a manual pen. Or the ink is practice pigment, it is not professional-grade permanent makeup pigment.

Skin condition: The condition of the skin will also affect the tattoo effect. If the skin is too dry, greasy or inflamed, the ink may not be absorbed well.

Insufficient depth: If the appropriate implantation depth is not reached during tattooing, the colorant may remain in the epidermis and cannot penetrate into the dermis.

Postoperative care: Improper postoperative care (such as excessive cleaning or improper use of skin care products) may cause the tattoo colorant to fade or fail to be properly absorbed.

If this happens after tattooing, it is recommended to consult a professional tattoo artist for evaluation and adjustment.

Currently, the more popular thicknesses are 0.16mm and 0.18mm; the popular sizes are 16U, 18U, and 18P. How to choose a microblading brow tools that suits you can refer to the advice on choosing a best microblading blade to use, which depends largely on several factors, including the type of eyebrow tattoo, the degree of detail required, and personal tattooing skills. Here are some basic guidelines:

Type of eyebrow tattoo: Detail and line tattoo: Finer lines and details can usually be achieved with finer needles (such as 0.16mm or 0.18mm).

Filling and shading: Slightly thicker needles (such as 0.20mm or 0.25mm) may be required to achieve better color coverage and shading effects on the skin.

Personal tattooing technique: Novice tattoo artists may tend to use thicker needles to minimize the operation time on the skin, while experienced tattoo artists have the flexibility to choose needles of different thicknesses to achieve more diverse effects.

Skin type: The texture and thickness of different skin will also affect the choice of needles. Thicker skin may require slightly thicker needles to ensure color and lines penetrate effectively.

Hair Condition: The thickness of your client’s natural hair is also an important factor in choosing needle thickness. Thicker hair requires slightly thicker needles to ensure lines are consistent with the natural hair.
