I think it was around 2015 it was said to have changed, could be an urban myth but it makes sense. It's a rash cream that's designed to speed up healing a bit too aggressively, better to just use a neutral moituriser like unscented coconut oil. I got a bunch of little pots of H2Ocean cream after my last tattoo and that seemed to work really well.
You can't use Bepanthen any more, they changed the formula some years ago and now it can risk drawing the fresh tattoo out of the skin.
