The Ultimate Guide to TBNC Products for Tattoo Aftercare
The Best Numbing CreamSo, you’ve finally gotten that tattoo you’ve been dreaming about—congrats! Whether it’s your first ink or one of many, proper aftercare is the key to keeping your tattoo vibrant, clean, and healthy. That’s where TBNC (The Best Numbing Cream) steps in—not just for numbing before the needle, but for supporting your healing journey afterward too.
Let’s break down which TBNC products to use during tattoo aftercare, and how to use them like a pro.
🧴 1. TBNC Soothing Gel – Your Tattoo’s Best Friend
When to use it: Right after your tattoo session and in the first few days of healing.
Why it’s great: TBNC Soothing Gel is designed specifically for post-tattoo care. It contains calming ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, and panthenol that help reduce redness, inflammation, and itching. It’s lightweight, non-greasy, and won’t clog your pores—perfect for keeping your tattoo hydrated without suffocating it.
How to use it:
-
Gently wash your tattoo with lukewarm water and TBNC Foaming Soap.
-
Pat dry with a clean paper towel.
-
Apply a thin layer of TBNC Soothing Gel.
-
Repeat 2-3 times daily for the first week.
🌿 2. TBNC Healing Balm – For Deeper Moisture and Protection
When to use it: After the initial healing phase, typically around day 3–7, depending on your artist’s guidance.
Why it’s great: The TBNC Healing Balm is richer and thicker than the gel, offering extra protection as your tattoo starts to peel and regenerate. It locks in moisture, prevents scabbing, and helps preserve the colors and linework. Plus, it’s fragrance-free and made for sensitive skin.
How to use it:
-
Switch from the Soothing Gel once your tattoo starts feeling dry or flaky.
-
Apply a small amount of balm after cleansing.
-
Massage in gently until absorbed—less is more!
-
Use daily for 1–2 weeks or until fully healed.
⚠️ Bonus: What Not to Use
Stick with TBNC’s tattoo-specific products and avoid:
-
Petroleum-based ointments (they can trap bacteria).
-
Heavy-scented lotions (they often irritate fresh ink).
-
Harsh exfoliants or scrubs.
🔄 Pro Tip: Continue Aftercare Beyond the Peel
Even after your tattoo looks healed, the deeper skin layers are still regenerating. Continue using TBNC Healing Balm or a light layer of their Soothing Gel for up to a month, especially if your skin feels tight or dry. And don’t forget sunscreen on your healed tattoo—UV rays are ink’s worst enemy! Use TBNC Tattoo Lotion for daily moisturizing after your tattoo has healed.

TBNC built their reputation on making one of the most effective numbing creams in the game, but their aftercare products deserve the same spotlight. Safe, soothing, and tattoo-artist approved—using TBNC for your aftercare routine ensures your fresh ink stays bold, beautiful, and healthy.
