Petey’s How-To

Lesson 1

Prep your skin

1. The day before: patch test for 10–20 minutes on the area to be tattooed. Redness is normal, but stop if there’s soreness, raised skin or blistering.
2. No alcohol within 24 hours of your tattoo.
3. Wash and exfoliate the area with soap, water and exfoliator. Dry completely.

Lesson 2

Apply the Signature Numbing Cream

1. Apply a thick 2mm layer. Don’t rub it in.
2. Cover tightly with cling film or our Numbing Garments. Tape the edges if using cling film.
3. Leave on for 60–90 minutes. Do not exceed this time.
4. Let your artist remove the wrap, wipe off the cream and clean the area.

Numb for 3–4 hours. On broken skin, apply for no more than 20 minutes.

Lesson 3

Top up with Miracle Numb Spray

1. Made for use during your tattoo, once the skin is broken.
2. Spray sparingly: 1–2 sprays, only on the area being worked on.
3. Allow 5–10 minutes to absorb, then reapply as needed.

Numb for 1–2 hours.

Lesson 4

Heal it right

1. Remove the wrap as directed by your artist, then wash your hands.
2. Shake Keep It Clean Foam, pump onto the tattoo and massage gently for 20 seconds.
3. Rinse with cool to warm water and pat dry with a clean paper towel.
4. Follow with Easy Heal Balm.
