  • A: While marketed to men, the products are suitable for anyone looking for high-quality skincare for tattoos, regardless of gender.

Q: Would you be able to use this as just a regular balm for dry skin not necessarily for tattoos. It seems like it would work really well! We love all your products so far!

submitted by Mags - 9 months ago

  • A: Thank you for your feedback - we are always excited to hear from our consumers. While Papatui Enhancing Tattoo Balm was developed to provide immediate hydration & vibrancy to ink, it is also great to use on skin that could use moisture!

submitted by Kyle - 2 years ago

    Picked this up curbside and the packaging was ripped up and crushed like it have been opened or thrown around.

    Product is thick and heavy, a little gloppy. A light scent wouldn't hurt.

    Brings out the colors

    This product does exactly as it states. It definitely rejuvenates the tattoos and brings out the contrast. A little wax feeling but that is to be expected.

    tattoo balm

    I am very please with the balm, my tattoo looks almost new. Thank you for a great product. I also bought the balm in a twist up and it is more convenient for me. I see that it is a men product. I think you need o come up with a woman's product. I have told all my lady friends that they need to try it.What fragrance would you use in one for the ladies?Sincerely yours, Dawn Cookie Smith

    Makes my tattoo brighter!

    While I do like this product, it is hard in the container so I really have to push into it with my fingers to get it then apply to my skin. The ingredients this product has is good for both my tattoo and my skin. I would buy again.
