tattoo aftercare question

dudewolf  said about 2 years ago  or at  11:09AM on Friday, November 26 2010 in chat

so i was in a rush and not paying complete attention the other day in safeway and purchased bepanthen 'nappy rash' cream instead of the standard use antiseptic cream. does anybody know if its basically the same shit??? thanks. i will accept 'rub it on your bum and find out' responses also.....


littlesmoke  said about 2 years ago:

bepanthen is fine...recommended even.


littlesmoke  said about 2 years ago:

oh...sorry, you got the wrong type of bepanthen? Probably still fine.

picking the scabs will make it look great! honest, guv...


carli  said about 2 years ago:

yep bepanthen recommended as littlesmoke said.

if your tattos is of a baby's bum then this is fine..


pagey  said about 2 years ago:

i've only used bepanthen. just don't slather it on too thickly or it can leach the ink out of your skin.


Jsweat  said about 2 years ago:

I've used the nappyrash one a few times... works a treat, but it's pretty thick and gooey.


pagey  said about 2 years ago:

note to self: read post properly before replying


electricsound  said about 2 years ago:

the antiseptic aspect of it seems to be the only difference. it's probably better to have the antiseptic one


Mo  said about 2 years ago:

not sure brother dude

i will say this - make sure it doesn't have vitamin E in it! that shit will pull ink out like a mother


fzchk  said about 2 years ago:

vitamin E in it! that shit will pull ink out like a mother

And also sting like a mother.


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

ta.... so the answer is it should be cool? i've used standard bepanthen for the past 3 days. the initial brutality is over. reckon i've got one more spoooge left in my old tube before it's nappy time.


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

bump for confirmation??


Block  said about 2 years ago:

Did you end up getting PROPERTY OF SHE HUNTER across your bum, like you wanted to?


kittymunroe  said about 2 years ago:

Dude its fine and the nappy one is totes fine, just don't put too much on there so that it gets like... soggy (ew).


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

back piece actually


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

thanxx kittypants


gabbo  said about 2 years ago:

they make another 'first aid' one that uses a better antiseptic in it than the regular 'bepanthen antiseptic'. the ointment is just a protectant (like most nappy rash creams) so you'll have a nice smooth tattoo-ed area (i presume it was your arse you got done?).


rosevich  said about 2 years ago:

bepanthen is totally fine


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

the question actually was is all the variations of the bepanthen range ok. apparently the answer is yes!!


mulligan  said about 2 years ago:

Yep. Used it for all mine.


LoadMyRig  said about 2 years ago:

i love how virtually every single person in this thread has misread yr question, volfy.


filterfeed  said about 2 years ago:

i also enjoyed that, aside from the value of asking chats serious questions.


TransientRandom  said about 2 years ago:

Thirded. I was going to write some arrogant snarky comment about it, but I thought better of it.


electricsound  said about 2 years ago:

i read it properly :(


slothman  said about 2 years ago:

i thought the thread was ''taboo aftercare question''


gabbo  said about 2 years ago:

it's not basically the same shit, though. it is different, and not as good, but in your situation it wouldn't have mattered.


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

i thought my initial question was pretty clear. USE YR EYEZ DICKHEADS!!! love yewwww


radiotron  said about 2 years ago:

Lucas paw paw ointment is all I've ever used


Tramdriver  said about 2 years ago:

I have bepanthan nappy rash- that it what was reccommended to me.


TransientRandom  said about 2 years ago:

I use Doubt Seeds - Bluebottle Kiss


filterfeed  said about 2 years ago:

I have bepanthan nappy rash- that it what was reccommended to me.

yes but what for?


Tramdriver  said about 2 years ago:

Reccommended for my tattoo would you believe?


miserable  said about 2 years ago:

Reccommendded


miserable  said about 2 years ago:

what is your tattoo tramdriver, is it on your bottom


Tramdriver  said about 2 years ago:

That appears to be a question, but there is no question mark so I guess it is just a lame joke.


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

Haha at this thread. Proving quite definitively that roughly 75% of people with tattoos are idiots.


Peter  said about 2 years ago:

and your post offers 100% proof of?


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

I have no idea Peter, I'm sure you can come up with something suitably scathing and/or witty though.


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

nappy rash bepanthen had it's first turn this morning. ol' sticky pants mcgee they call me.


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

Apologies to 75% of people with tattoos, I woke up at 4am with a blocked nose and was in a shitty mood because I couldn't get back to sleep. You guys are alright!


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

FUCK YOU DUDE


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

Hey, I thought you made the question pretty clear DUDE.


hungryhungryhippo  said about 2 years ago:

Don't apologise Happycow. You made me giggle lots.


happycow  said about 2 years ago:

Yeah I regret that now, F U 75%


dudewolf  said about 2 years ago:

Tramdriver  said about 2 years ago:
