I swear by sunscreen sticks, I always keep one in my bag. They're so handy for carrying around and there's no risk of them spilling in your bag.
I love unrefined cold-pressed Coconut Oil, It works amazing and you can buy a huge jar for $8.00 depending where you live. Also Tattoo Goo Lotion and Color Guard Stick SPF 30 is amazing, all dermatologist tested and has essential oils in their products to rejuvenate the color of the tattoo.
PLEASE use sunblock everywhere, but esp. on all tattoos - not just colored one. A close friend worked in the medical field for yrs and she saw so many ppl w/ sun cancer tumors the exact shape and size of the tats. Something about the melanin. Idk. But skin cancer is so serious, its not just something fair skinned ppl have to worry about. Every skin color can get it & you don't need to use a tanning bed to die from it. And if it sounds like I know ppl who have had it, you'd be right. Pls be careful.

Rebekah Navarro Yes you are right, but especially if you are fair skinned you are more at risk to get skin cancer. Darker people like myself have more tolerance to the sun because of melanin; therefore, they tan easier. This is why pale people usually get sunburns and freckles.

Jeffrey Rohan While what you say may or may not be true, it's a fact that more African Americans die from skin cancer than other races due to the fact that an abnormality such as a dark mole that looks rough around the edges, is harder to notice on dark pigmentation than lighter pigmentation.

Essential oils are different from cosmetic oils, definitely don't put pure essential oils on your skin! They're really strong and can cause a major reaction! They're just for making your house smell nice :) but the oils you showed here were fine for skin, no problem.

Beverly Martin can you use argan oil or coconut oil on them ? And if so how many times should you apply it?
I always get comments at work about how bright my half-sleeves are(people always ask me if I keep having touch ups lol). I exfoliate about 3 times a week, in addition all the tips mentioned in the video. One of my favourite moisturizers is shea & cocoa butter baby lotion mixed with a couple cap fulls of body oil... it's amazing and smells lovely as a bonus! :)
wow I've never seen tattoos that bright and colorful you really do know how to take care of yourself.
i love your channel, but you should never really put essential oils on your skin, especially lavender oil, since it's highly phototoxic (makes your skin more prone to sun damage) it kind of does the opposite of what you're trying to do argan, jojoba and coconut are perfectly fine though

lavender isn't phototoxic- you might be thinking of an allergic reaction. mainly citrus oils are phototoxic/photosensitive. but yes, you should usually not use essential oils directly on your skin without first diluting them in some sort of "carrier oil" such as coconut oil. some oils like lavender, rose, and chamomile are typically considered safe for undiluted skin use, but honestly, i'd still dilute them anyway because they're soooo concentrated and they're made up of molecules so small that they can easily enter the bloodstream.
Yeah shaving your arms or any spots you have tattoos make them look so good !
Qcknd my saviour! I just got 2 new tattoos and this video couldn't have come at a better time xx
I always reach for oil when my tattoo is looking dull. Even Palmers skin therapy oil worked great.
You're tattoos are crazy beautiful. I'm hopeful that one day you'll change your mind on doing a "Tattoo Tour" video... ^___^
Jojoba oil is so versatile - I use it to stretch my septum and ears, and it's great for my tattoos too. :-)
Your sleeve looks awesome...Nothing like a vivid artsy tattoo.
Your tattoo ink and artist is perfect 👌
I love the sleeve. You got a new sub. Again LOVE IT.
she talks very inspritional and knowledgable
Great advice. I do just about all u have said lol. Very cute too by the way. Great ink
I also prefer body oil as a moisturizer! Alba botanica makes a great body oil that smells amazing!
i'm currently using organic virgin coconut oil ! works fine for me, not that greasy.
You can buy wash-in UV protection additives for your clothes. I've used them, and they're great, as it adds protection to clothes you already own.

You see of online pics where guys have these incredible tats. The area is shaved so the artist can work and 2 inches away its VERY hairy. Maybe I'm just a weirdo, but I'm the kind of person that thinks "Oh, you are going to start shaving the whole area, aren't you?" Even in black and gray, what's the point in dropping $$$$ to put art on yourself, then ruin the effect if you're hairy?

Omg, I’ve never thought about shaving my arm to make my tattoo look a little better. Could an electric or battery operated shaver work as well, or would a razor most likely be the best option?
My mom have tattoos and it really helped her!❤️❤️ she love your tattoo videos❤️
Nice video and your tatto is just like a painting which is painted by world best painter
I know I'm late to the party, but I just recently got this product from the LUSH UK website called Elbow Grease and it's worked wonders on my tattoos. I use it after shaving or exfoliating my tattoos when I get out of the shower and it really brightens them up! The only downside is that the international shipping fee is a bit pricey.
Your tattoos really are beautiful. I'm enjoying watching your videos!!
As I guy I actually do all three. Ever since my first I've been diligent about UV protection and using sun screen. Any outside work I'd wear pants to protect my legs (Ive got two calf and two thigh tattoos) and now I'm wearing a long sleeve when mowing grass since I'm working on my tattoo sleeve. The heat sucks but I'd rather prevent skin aging and faded tattoos if I can. I may go as far as arm shaving one day but probably when my sleeve is complete. I do trim it back though else it'd be way too much. I've been leg shaving/waxing for a few years already. Mostly because it gets out of control and it's hard to feel clean when you seem to genetically be part bear. I've kinda given up about dealing with what's considered "normal" and just go with it. There's many reasons why (tattoos look much better, easier to apply lotion and sunscreen, easier to wash, less sweating, and overall just feeling cleaner). I also use some kind of almond oil for freshening them up. It's shocking how well they work. Helps make blacks appear darker too.
I'm a guy with hairy ass arms and i swear my tattoos look brand new after I trimmed down the hair
I moisturize mine all the time!! Keeps it looking so nice.
would coconut oil be good?
I feel like other tattooed people laugh at me, im constantly rubbing oils and lotions on my tattoos. But im two years out and all my tattoos look almost as fresh as when i got them.

Very helpful! Great tips. Glad I came across your channel for tattoos 😍❤️
I use coconut oil to make my tattoos look better/brighter/fresher
Those are some stunning tattoos. 💛
I was a lifeguard too, had to reapply sunscreen every 90 minutes.
I work graveyard and if I'm out during the day, I avoid the sun as much as possible. lol. I've found drinking water and lotion have worked wonders on my older tattoos. I usually use a child's sunscreen spray that applies clear and haven't seen it damage my clothes. Obviously everyone is different and love advice about tattoos and aftercare.
I was scrolling quickly and for some reason my brain read this as '3 tips for a brighter future'?!?! Is this my subconscious trying to tell me something? :o
love your hair in this video. super helpful tips too!
it's looks so great your tattoos.
I like to use coconut oil :) I use it for my tattoos and my stretched piercings (ears, septum, philtrum) and it works the best for me ;)
Oh no, I’m also planning on getting a tattoo that has orange, yellow, and green in it. I’m gonna have a lot of fun trying to remember sunscreen this summer😅
I've been using these methods for awhile too!
honestly i dont go outside that much. from home to school/work or if i do go out with friends its when the sun is setting or at night. and i cant remember the last time i went to a park. so i dont use sunblock. only times i do is at the beach. but i might start wearing some just because i live were its sunny all year around
Woah, that oil really worked!
damn girl, i LOVE your tattoos. you suit them so much xx
I like to use coconut oil and vitamin e lotion
Have you tried coconut oil? My tattoo artist recommended it cause it keeps your skin moisturized, has uv protection and makes your skin soft. Tell me what you think and if you have tried and and think something is better, cause I want the best for my tattoos ^_^
Thank u sister cauze of u now I can make my tatoo look new 😍😘☺😊😉👍👍✌
If you want to walk out with an umbrella by all means have no shame walk that umbrella anywhere you want to go. :3 YUP. Wear something with a hood a hat layers everywhere rain or shine! That's my motto! We should all go for it!!!!!! Because it could rain and then you'd be ready for it too! They'll get plenty of Backlash alright if they ask or w/e.
literally have put lipbalm with sunscreen in it on my finger/inner wrist tattoo when i forget. I keep it in my car, so it's usually with me when i'm gonna be out.
I use a&d ointment
You are gorgeous, great tattoos by the way.

What brand of ink are they using on your tattoos? That also makes a huge difference in the quality of tattoos, as do so many other variables. Great advice, btw.
1. Shave hairy areas 2. Beware of the sun. Wear (stick) sunscreen or uv protective clothing 3. Moisturize. Oil based moisturizer recommended
Your tattoos are perfect.
Ive seen your videos about how you heal your tattoo and the mention of the sunscreen like chapstick made me think, have you used chapstick on your healimg tattoos? I do and I really like it. I use it on my tattoos and evwn burns, deep cuts, other injuries. Its very healing.
My oldest Tats are 30 yrs old..very faded .was looking at tattoo pens to go over the colour but would like any other options.❤️

David A.P. pimples can make your tattoo not settle properly, sometimes the ink will just go around it and you'll have a blank spot where the pimple was in the center of your tattoo. Its best to have fully healed and as smooth as possible skin before getting your tattoo, but always ask your artist before anything! The internet doesn't always know everything😊 good luck!
I thought that sun screen faded the tattoos. That you needed a special one that's only for tattoos. Or can I just use any type? Thank you so much 🤗
