Tattoo Aftercare Waterproof Bandage,Second Skin Healing Protective, 15cmx1m

Really good , waterproof Easy to cut and to apply on the surface A bit hard to take off

This is something I used as a healing tool post tattooing. The film clings to skin like a plaster, but gives you none of the scary ripping it off pains that a standard plaster would. This allows you to heal new ink with minimum fuss & maximum outcome. My only advice would be to add a very thin layer of vaseline or similar over the fresh ink, prior to applying. This will allow your ink to relax & you won't pull any pigment out when removing after 48 or so hours

Works well for a while but then starts to peel back, so I advise to replace every 2/3 hours.

I liked how easy this was to apply, and that I could could into the shape I needed. It did start to curl at the edges a little so would say to make sure you have a bigger area covered than you think you need. Great value for money, I would buy this again!

Really sticky and lasted a good 5 days. Bit tricky to put on on your own though

I bought this with the hope to put it over a dressing on a minor surgery site, so I could have a brief swim whilst on holiday. I did and it worked, no leak. I have a few worries about this product though, and could not personally recommend it because of these reasons, and certainly wouldn't use it for extended periods. 1. It's not sterile. In this case I had it over a dressing so I was not as worried, but this is a concern as may present an infection risk, especially over a new wound. 2. It's unclear if it meets UK safety regs. I've not heard of the manufacturer, I can't find clear info on the type of adhesive used, and I can't see anywhere that it's been registered/approved by the UK regulators such as the MHRA. 3. It's too adhesive to put directly on a wound. Overall, I took the risk and used it, I put a dressing under it, but I can't recommend it due to the above reasons.

Easy to use, very affective on your new tattoos, it can hurt when taking it off for the first time, but I use it all the time

I used this to replace the second skin that my artist applied as it was leaking and then I replaced again the morning after my tattoo. Where this second skin was applied I can still see red marks where it was and I’m on day 4. Hopefully I won’t have this red mark forever. It was also extremely painful to remove even with hot water in the shower which is what I always do and never have a problem. I can actually see where it has pulled my skin up. Hopefully no damage to my tatt but we will see. Won’t be buying again
