Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 55 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Many customers are highly impressed with the product's quality and its effectiveness for tattoo aftercare, noting that it helps with healing, reduces itching, and maintains vibrancy. People appreciate that the cream is non-greasy, light, and versatile, often using it for various skin ailments like eczema and dry skin, not just tattoos. The staff is frequently praised for their helpfulness and for treating customers like family, contributing to an overall excellent service experience. However, some reviewers were not happy with the product for new tattoos, experiencing stinging pain or finding the cream too thin, which led to issues like cracking scabs. A few other people also felt that it couldn't alleviate extreme itchiness in specific areas, particularly during tattoo removal, despite its general effectiveness.

Omg ink nurse is the best thing ever…

Omg ink nurse is the best thing ever for your tattoos 😍 as soon as I applied some to my new tattoo ( after 2 days of being done) it felt so moisturised like nothing I’ve ever used before, not Greasey, no left residue, felt & looked unbelievable, you only need to use a little bit but a little bit is more than enough, it also helps your old tattoos to come to life again they look great, honestly forget all the other stuff people tell you to use on your tattoos and go for Inc nurse it’s a bit more expensive but it’s well worth it you’ll never go back,

I feel like the product was average.

I feel like the product was average.
A lot of hype for something that didn’t actually do much for my new tattoo.
The product is quite wet so didn’t really moisturise my new tattoo.
I managed to use a whole 100ml in 6 days.
$30 every new tattoo is a lot especially when I’m covering my whole back.
Pretty dissatisfied, I feel like coconut oil would do the same.

I bought the tester as I have abnormally annoying sensitive skin. It's great for tattoos and I use it on my most recent tattoo. Have had no skin irritations, highly reccommend!

Fantastic Product

For me this product is fantastic but if you are sensitive to citrus(grapefruit and mandarin) then be very careful because you could possibly have a reaction.

No Regrets Thanks

The customer service was outstanding. Quick to email back when I had questions and supplied me with another full order when Australia post had rough handlers. Have Ben using it now for 4 weeks on old tattoos and it has brought them up from faded.
Just recently got a couple of new tattoos and it is fantastic with the healing process. Thanks Ink Nurse

My new favourite tattoo healer!

This cream is amazing. Super moisturising, you only need a tiny bit and it goes a long way. Doesn't feel heavy or greasy and sped up the healing of my tattoo so much. Made the itchy stage very short and bearable. Customer service has also been excellent. Fast order fulfilment time and quick shipping, well packaged and protected. I have told other friends and family to buy this for their next tattoos

The cream is amazing

The cream is amazing. One of my tattoos have started being very itchy (it’s two years old) and nothing helped until I found this cream! I only applied a little bit every day and now it’s looking vibrant again and not itchy anymore. Great moisturiser but the smell is not great. But the effect is more important to me!

To be honest the price is too much

To be honest the price is too much. Sorry. I didn’t find this product so amazing. I’ve bought cheaper ones that are just as good. When u have a lot of Tatts this can get very expensive . Thank u. Have a great day🌻🌺

Great product

Purchased after reading reviews. Works great doesn’t leave thick film, absorbs well, reduced all itching and peeling and has started to heal beautifully on fresh Ink. Have already ordered more.
