INK-EEZE Black Tattoo Ointment — Lavender 6oz, Petroleum-Free Essential-Oil Salve

INK-EEZE Black Tattoo Ointment is a petroleum-free, essential-oil infused salve designed for use during tattoo application and as a lightweight aftercare moisturizer.

Formulated by tattoo artists and skincare specialists, this 6oz balm blends sunflower oil, beeswax, chia seed oil, turmeric extract, activated carbon and soothing bisabolol to provide a non-petroleum option for both studio use and at-home maintenance. Cruelty-free and made in the USA, the ointment functions as a lubricant while tattooing and as a sparing, protective salve for healed or healing ink. The texture is rich but spreadable, so a small amount covers a large area without leaving an overly greasy residue.

How does INK-EEZE help during the tattooing process?

As a studio lubricant, INK-EEZE Black reduces friction and helps the needle glide more predictably over skin. Its non-petroleum base prevents clogging that can occur with heavier mineral oil products and supports comfortable machine work for both artist and client.

• Provides consistent lubrication to ease needle movement
• Non-petroleum formula minimizes heavy residue
• Small quantity covers large areas, reducing product waste
• Infused with essential oils chosen for skin comfort and scent

Can I use this ointment for aftercare and daily maintenance?

Yes — applied sparingly, the ointment helps maintain skin suppleness and protect fresh ink from excessive drying. It’s intended for short-term use during the initial healing phase or as an occasional protective balm for finished tattoos.

• Use a thin layer to avoid over-saturating the wound
• Suitable for intermittent moisturizing as tattoos settle
• Helps reduce tightness and keeps pigment looking vibrant
• Made without petroleum, suitable for clients seeking alternative formulations

What are the key ingredients and why do they matter?

The recipe relies on plant-based oils and waxes plus active botanicals to create a protective, emollient balm. Ingredients like sunflower oil and chia seed oil restore lipids, beeswax provides a breathable barrier, and turmeric extract and bisabolol offer calming botanical properties without heavy synthetic occlusives.

• Sunflower oil and chia seed oil for skin-conditioning fatty acids
• Beeswax to form a light, protective film over the skin
• Turmeric extract and bisabolol for botanical soothing action
• Activated carbon for the product’s signature color and clean aesthetic

How should artists and clients apply INK-EEZE safely?

Application differs slightly for studio use versus at-home care: artists use the ointment intermittently during sessions to control friction, while clients should apply a very thin layer after cleaning and only as directed. Avoid heavy coverage or continuous occlusion of the tattooed area to support proper healing.

• Artists: dab small amounts onto gloves or directly on the area during shading and lining
• Aftercare: cleanse first, then apply a fingernail-sized smear spread thinly
• Reapply only when skin feels dry or tight, not continuously
• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight

Who is this for? INK-EEZE Black Tattoo Ointment is aimed at professional tattooers looking for a petroleum-free lubricant and collectors who prefer botanical-based aftercare. It’s a good match for artists and clients who want a concentrated, cruelty-free salve made in the USA, and for anyone seeking a minimal, effective product that covers both in-studio needs and short-term post-tattoo maintenance.
