the idea with Bepanthen or any other wound skin care ointment is the use of "dexpanthenol"
.
Dexpanthenol keeps the skin moist and does help to create new skin tissue.
.
Most important with any cream for tattoo healing is to use just a thin coat, do NOT use the cream as a "barrier" as this will weaken the scab an make it more fragile.
.
I recomment to wash fresh tattoo with warm water n soap. than tap dry and let air dry till its completely dry. Than but a thin layer skin care cream 3 to 6 times a day till the scab is fully gone.

I thought the idea with Bepanthen was to use it as a barrier for a few days, then go onto unfragranced moisturiser? This cocoa butter is fragranced moisturiser. Ingredients don't seem too bad otherwise.
