Viking Revolution Tattoo Care Balm - 2 oz (2 Pack)

This is my second time having this product - my first run was a gift from a friend a few years ago and I used it for aftercare as well as just keeping my tattoos looking fresh. I have mildly sensitive skin and am mindful of the products I use, and this was an excellent addition to the routine. When I moved cross-country, I lost my last tin so when I scheduled the tattoo I just got, I knew I had to pick it up. It doesn’t have a color so it won’t affect the coloring or irritate the tattoo, it has no scent at all - doesn’t smell strongly one way or another and I love the neutral smell. It is great for maintaining and brightening older tattoos as well as for aftercare on new tattoos. The 2 oz tin lasts FOREVER even with daily use, and for that it’s a good cost. I will use this tattoo balm until either I or the company cease to be.

I just got my 9th tattoo done about 5 days ago and didn’t want to spend almost $15 on Aquaphor. I searched for tattoo balms here on amazon and came across a few products, this one included. I’ve never heard of this product before but the reviews were great and the price per ounce was excellent, especially compared to the well known tattoo products. I received this product on January 20, 2020. It came in a cool box and the product itself it in a round tin container with nice graphics on it. I opened the tin and tried the balm on my new tattoo, which is dry and scaly at this point of the healing process. There is hardly any scent at all and the consistency is silky smooth. It made my tattoo feel immediately less irritated as well as soothed. The dryness was gone and it felt amazing. I’ve been using it for only 3 days and it works so well that I also started using it on my dry hands! The winter weather makes my hands dry and rough and this product softened it. I also use it as a cuticle balm for my fingernail cuticles that also get dry in the winter and lead to hangnails that are painful. This product softened them as well!! Not only is my tattoo healing better (see pic), but my hands and cuticles are softer! I highly recommend this dual purpose tattoo balm. It’s an amazing product and the value is excellent. I like it better than aquaphor and A & D ointment , which I normally use for my tattoos during healing. It’s cheaper and works so much better. I’m so glad I came across this product. Thanks for making this!!

I have been using this tattoo balm for years and it’s been working very well. Any time I am going out somewhere and wearing short sleeve shirts or tank tops, I put a thin coating of this on my half-sleeve tattoo to make the colors just a little more vibrant (although it’s kind of hard to tell in my before and after photos). A little bit if this goes a long way so I don’t apply much, but it works well and doesn’t leave my skin feeling too oily. I recommend this balm for anyone who has tattoos and wants them to look brighter or more defined. I haven’t used this balm before getting a tattoo or for aftercare so I can speak to how well it would have worked during the healing process but I’m sure it would have been helpful if I had been using it at that time. My only gripe is that they changed the container from the taller style to an almost flat style container. The new container is extremely hard to grip for opening it because it’s so thin. Once I finally got it opened, I made it a point to not put the lid back on too tight. I hope they switch back to the original container in the future but I still love the product for what it is and give it 5 stars with an asterisk that the new container was the wrong choice.

Good product. I was a little surprised at the small quantity but it was enough for two small tattoos to heal. I would buy it again as it is soothing and doesn’t have a strong smell. My tattoos healed with even scabbing.

LOVE this stuff! I've used it on 6 tattoos so far and it's the best product I've ever used for aftercare. Spreads easily and evenly, keeps skin super soft, dab off the excess and it doesn't transfer to or stain clothing. 10/10

I’ve got a few tattoos. I recently spent a day getting quite a bit of work done to finish my sleeve. I actually had to travel out of state to see my artist after he moved, and I didn’t think to bring anything with me after the session other than the traditional Aquafor. A couple of the new tattoos ended up being pretty dry. Colorado is a semi-desert and it’s been nothing but fires this summer. I can’t remember the last time it rained... needless to say, my skin was incredibly dry. Aquafor is petroleum-based and seems to sit on the surface of my skin and just makes things greasy. I decided to try out several different products to see how well my skin and new ink responded. Of all of these, the Viking Revolution was by far my favorite. I’ve used their beard oil before and I like that product too. Compared to the other products, the Viking Revolution 1. Goes on really smoothly 2. Is hydrating and moisturizing 3. Has a light and pleasant smell I compared this product to Tattoo Goo and Mad Rabbit Tattoo Aid. I’d say that this product is very similar to Tattoo Goo. In comparison to Mad Rabbit, this product doesn’t last as long and doesn’t penetrate as well, however it is much smoother and smells much much better. I plan on using this product to hydrate my tattoos in the future. I really like how well it works and smells and it is easy enough to keep on my bedside table or pack on a flight.

Darkens up my tattoo, keeps it moist. Good product

I used to love this tattoo cream, definitely was easy to use, felt nice on the skin, and left a pleasant odor. But now they've changed the container. Now it's flat and wider and much more difficult to handle as well as fit in my bag. I hope that the quality has at least stayed the same. But change back the container!!

Utilisé juste après un tatouage récent, ce baume fait globalement très bien le travail. Il aide à apaiser la peau et à maintenir une bonne hydratation pendant toute la phase de cicatrisation. ⸻ 👍 Points positifs • Très bonne hydratation : la peau reste souple, ce qui limite les tiraillements et les croûtes  • Favorise la cicatrisation : aide la peau à se régénérer plus rapidement et protège la zone tatouée  • Texture agréable : s’applique facilement, pénètre bien sans laisser de film trop gras • Apaise rapidement : diminue les démangeaisons et les sensations de brûlure ⸻ 👎 Points négatifs • Peut être un peu gras selon la quantité appliquée • Odeur parfois présente selon la composition (naturelle ou parfumée) • Doit être appliqué régulièrement pour être vraiment efficace ⸻ 🧪 Mon utilisation • Application 2 à 3 fois par jour sur tatouage neuf • Puis en entretien pour garder des couleurs vives 👉 Résultat : peau bien hydratée, cicatrisation propre et tatouage qui garde son éclat. ⸻ ⚠️ À savoir • Toujours appliquer en fine couche (sinon la peau peut “étouffer”) • Éviter les produits parfumés ou agressifs au début • Bien nettoyer le tatouage avant application 💡 Beaucoup de baumes utilisent des ingrédients comme le panthénol ou des huiles naturelles pour accélérer la réparation de la peau et apaiser les irritations  ⸻ ⭐ Conclusion Un indispensable après un tatouage. Ce type de baume permet une cicatrisation plus confortable et aide à préserver la qualité du tatouage sur le long terme. 👉 Note : 4,5 / 5

Originally used it for tattoo aftercare, and kept using it for daily tattoo maintenance. It's also very good as an after-shave to prevent the skin from drying too much. A little goes a long way with this balm. A very small quantity is all you need to cover a very large area. It absorbs relatively fast and may leave a greasy feeling on your skin, but any excess balm can be easily cleaned with a paper towel. Since it's made with natural ingredients, it may cause allergic reactions if your skin is very sensitive. Try it on a small spot away from any fresh tattoo (preferably on a different limb).

Ich muss sagen, ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Pflegebalsam. Gerade auf frisch gestochenen Tattoos ist es sehr angenehm. Man braucht nicht viel und es riecht angenehm. Es zieht nicht so schnell ein, so daß wenn man ein Kleidungsstück drüber zieht es immer noch gut feucht bleibt. Klare Kaufempfehlung von mir.

Really helped me during the healing process. I needed something to help reduce the itching and the redness and this did a wonderful job. Will use it again for my next tattoo!

I have tried this product and its not very good for the fresh tattoos. The tattoo takes a longer time to heal than when using simple and cheaper creams found in any pharmacy like Bepathene cream. Considering the price of the cream you would expect great things but there is no difference between this balm verses other cheaper tattoo creams on the market. There is no scent to the cream and it takes some time to be absorbed into the skin. I will not be buying it again simply because I think its overpriced.
