Inktrox - Vaseline Set Fresh - 3 x 150 g

InkTrox Glide Set Fresh, 3 x 150 g Tattoo Vaseline in three scents

The InkTrox Glide Set Fresh (also listed as Vaseline Set Fresh) combines three 150-gram tubes of cosmetic Vaseline in one set. Used as tattoo glide, they provide the necessary lubrication during the tattooing process, protect the stressed skin, and keep the lines visible when wiping. The difference between the three jars lies in their scent and color: green with lime and basil, yellow with lemon and mint, and blue with fresh green cucumber.

Use During Tattooing

Vaseline is the standard lubricant in tattooing, and the Fresh line fulfills this purpose perfectly. A thin film reduces friction between the needle and the skin and protects the treated area during the procedure. While working, the Vaseline keeps excess ink fluid without smudging the tattooed design, ensuring the motif remains clearly visible throughout the entire session. Well-moisturized skin is also more comfortable to tattoo.

The Side Effect at Work

One benefit that many only come to appreciate in practice: Thanks to its viscosity, Vaseline is ideal for securing ink caps at the workstation. A dab under the cap prevents it from slipping or tipping over when the needle is dipped. This saves a lot of frustration when setting up the workstation before a session.

Why Three Scents Instead of One Jar

The difference between green, yellow, and blue lies solely in the scent and color; the function is the same for all three. This offers two advantages for everyday studio use: You can switch between them depending on the client and your preference, and the color of the jar lets you tell at a glance which one is currently on the workstation. If you manage multiple workstations, you can also use this to keep them organized.

Application and Storage

Apply a thin layer to dry skin and massage in gently. Store in a cool, dry place.

Practical Note on Skin Compatibility

The manufacturer states that the petroleum jellies are suitable for all skin types and non-irritating. At the same time, they are perfumed and contain fragrances that must be listed on the label (including limonene, citral, linalool, and geraniol) as well as dyes. If you have a known sensitivity to fragrances, you should therefore test the product on an inconspicuous area beforehand and follow the instructions on the container. If you need a completely fragrance- and dye-free option, it’s best to choose a neutral white petroleum jelly.

Distinction from Hygiene

The Fresh Vaseline products come in a jar. If you scoop it out with your gloves multiple times throughout the day, this is a classic route for cross-contamination. Therefore, always use a disposable wooden spatula to scoop it out, or, if necessary, use individual packets for each customer.
