Product details
Mad Rabbit Tattoo Artist Glide is a petroleum-free, vegan tattoo lubricant and protective ointment formulated to ease tattooing and support skin comfort before, during, and after sessions.
Created for professional tattooists and meticulous clients, this Glide blends clean emollients, plant butters, and essential oils to reduce friction during needlework and to help skin stay supple. The formula replaces petrolatum with sunflower, shea, and cocoa butters plus lavender oil so artists can work smoothly while minimizing pore-clogging residues. It’s cruelty-free and designed for use across all tattoo stages: prepping, inking, and initial aftercare.
How does Mad Rabbit Tattoo Artist Glide help during the tattoo session?
The Glide lowers needle drag and creates an even working surface so ink flows consistently and the artist can maintain better control. Its slick yet non-greasy feel prevents excessive buildup on needles and machines while preserving skin visibility.
- Lubricates needle movement for smoother lines and shading
- Reduces skin irritation from friction during long sessions
- Leaves minimal residue so tattooists can see detail clearly
What are the main ingredients and why were they chosen?
The formula centers on plant-derived oils and butters that hydrate and condition without using petrolatum. These ingredients are selected for their emollient properties and skin-friendly texture to maintain a protective barrier without suffocating pores.
- Sunflower oil — helps skin retain moisture and stay flexible
- Shea butter — conditions and supports the skin’s barrier
- Cocoa butter — nourishment for softness and elasticity
- Lavender oil — provides a calming scent and soothing sensation
When should I use this Glide in my tattoo routine?
Use it from the moment you begin prepping the skin through the tattooing process and into the first hours of aftercare. Applied sparingly, it protects and conditions without creating a film that traps ink or contaminants.
- Before inking — to hydrate and prepare the area
- During inking — to lubricate needle movement and reduce friction
- Immediately after — to soothe freshly tattooed skin while avoiding heavy occlusion
Does this product suit different skin types and tattoo styles?
Yes. Its clean, non-petroleum formula is compatible with most skin types, from dry to normal, and works for fine-line, blackwork, and color pieces. For very oily or acne-prone skin, use a lighter application and monitor skin response.
- Dry or flaky skin benefits from the nourishing butters
- Normal skin gains protection and reduced irritation
- Oily skin: apply sparingly to avoid excess shine
Who is this for? Mad Rabbit Tattoo Artist Glide is aimed at professional tattoo artists and clients who want a clean, vegan alternative to petrolatum-based lubricants. It suits artists who need dependable glide and low-residue performance during sessions, as well as clients who prefer cruelty-free ingredients and natural emollients in their tattoo aftercare kit. If you need an all-purpose, non-petroleum ointment that supports comfort and workability from prep to the first recovery phase, this Glide is engineered for that workflow.
