The minimalist butter in the line

While the Candy and Zest variants feature added fragrance, the Clove variant does without it entirely. It carries only the natural, subtle scent of cloves, making it the minimalist signature formula of the line. For studios, this is the go-to choice for sensitive clients: a care product that forgoes additional fragrance components yet still offers the same nourishing base of plant butters and oils.

One butter for the entire process

The Clove serves two purposes. During the tattooing process, you use it as a lubricant: it ensures smooth glide and reduces smudging. After the session, it transitions into a skincare product, keeping the fresh tattoo supple. Its base of shea and mango seed butter, along with coconut, grape seed, jojoba, and wheat germ oil, makes it nourishing; clove extract is traditionally known for its skin-soothing properties and is said to reduce redness.

Clove Instead of Lidocaine

Biotat also relies on clove instead of synthetic anesthetics like lidocaine in its Clove formula. The formula contains no chlorhexidine and no added synthetic fragrances; it is vegan and not tested on animals.

Directions

Apply a thin layer to the skin during tattooing. For aftercare, apply to the cleansed tattoo two to three times daily until it has healed, and continue using it afterward to care for the skin. For a softer consistency, store the butter at room temperature. Use within 6 months after opening.

Warnings (Manufacturer’s Information)

Keep out of reach of children and pets. Avoid the eye area; if contact occurs, rinse immediately with water. If swallowed, seek medical advice. Discontinue use if a skin reaction occurs. Do not use if you have a known sensitivity to eugenol (an ingredient in clove oil).
