VITA NOVA TATTOO
Vita Nova as its latin title means new life. It was a published text in 1294, as an expression of the medieval genre of courtly love.
Aftercare
Leave clingfilm on for 2-5 hours, it’s a fresh wound so you need to protect it.
When you take it off wash with warm soapy water then pat dry with clean paper towel. (It may sting a little which is normal!)
When the tattoo is dried out, moisturise little & often! Make sure you work it into the skin! We recommended Palmers Cocoa Butter.
While healing they may look shiny or scabby but this normal. Everyone’s skin is different so healing time can vary.
Don’t -
Do not scratch or pick your tattoo. Scabs can lead to ink loss and picking the tattoo can lead to soreness and a damaged tattoo.
Avoid fake tan, sunbathing, sun beds or submerging the tattoo in water like bathing or swimming. Showering is fine! All the things can affect healing time and tattoo damage.
