I actually recommend using neosporin. Personally, I have many tattoos on my body and I've found the best results using this. I DEFFINATLY do not recommend using vasoline, even if your tattoo artist recommend it!

This is basically a trick tattoo studios do to get clients to come back. Vasoline damages your tattoo and will pull some of the ink out. It makes the skin soggy and the ink raises to the top. Tattoo artists tell you to use it because if your tattoo begins to fade and you want it fixed. You'll probably go back to them to have it redone.

There are other tattoo ointments out there that you can use too, but I think they are just scented abstracts of neosporin, and they cost quite a bit sometimes.

Just dont use very much of any petroleum jelly based product. And only use it for three days. Rule of thumb is 'if ya can see it on there, you got too much'.
