We’re feeling the holiday spirit this year (mostly because it’s so close to the end of this crazy year). We've launched a new blog series The 12 Days of Tattoo Supplies, where each day we’ll be highlighting a different product that we know can spruce up your tattoo shop. It's day 9 and we're talking about a brand we know and love, Recovery!
The 12 Days of Tattoo Supplies: Day 9
A key feature of Recovery Aftercare Tattoo Salve is that it is a dye-free, clear formula, so you can see exactly what you are putting onto your skin. Keep your tattoos vibrant and soothe your skin with Recovery Aftercare Tattoo Salve. Natural ingredients to condition and protect the skin were used to make this balm, along with a specially formulated synthetic beeswax for a completely vegan-friendly product, making it compatible with all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Recovery Lustra Compressed Towels are the safe and hygienic perfect alternative to paper towels you can depend on. These towels are made from 100% non-woven viscose that is biodegradable, vegan-friendly, and smooth to the touch. While paper towels can often absorb moisture and bacteria in the surrounding environment, these compressed procedural towels are designed to resist such absorption and promote cleanliness. Additionally, these non-woven towels offer a gentle, smooth wipe, and do not rip or pull when dampened.

Derm Shield (10” x 8 Yard Roll) by Recovery is an easy to use and reliable product, gently clean and pat dry the tattoo and surrounding area, ensuring there is no soap or any residue on the skin. With clean gloves, remove Derm Shield from the sterile pouch. Cut the Derm Shield to cover the tattooed area plus a 1 to 2-inch margin from the edge of the tattoo. Peel off backing to expose the adhesive side and position the Derm Shield over the tattoo with the adhesive side facing the skin. Gently apply using light pressure, starting from the center to the edges to eliminate air bubbles. Do not stretch the Derm Shield during application. The first Derm Shield application should stay in place for 24 hours, depending on the level of exudation. (Please note it is normal for blood and fluids to collect under the bandage).
