CBD based aftercare has been taking the industry by storm in recent years, and it's not showing any signs of slowing down in the near future.

What is CBD?

For the uninitiated, CBD stands for cannabidiol. It's the most prevalent of over 100 chemical compounds (aka cannabinoids) found in the cannabis plant. CBD oil is made by extracting CBD from the cannabis plant, then diluting it with a carrier oil like coconut or hemp seed oil.

CBD by itself won't get you high (there's no THC), so it's become an appealing option for those who are looking for pain relief without the mind-altering side effects of marijuana or over-the-counter prescription drugs.

Benefits of CBD

CBD infused products provide your clients with all-natural pain relief, and reduces redness and swelling to help them sit longer. As a result, you'll get a chance to get in those last-minute white highlights...

We carry a number of CBD options in the Eikon store. We've listed them below so you can check 'em out, and see which one will work best for you and your clients.

Ink-Eeze CBD Glide

Ink-Eeze's CBD glide is an all-natural ointment infused with essential oils. The formula was developed by a team of tattooers and skin care specialists. It can be used as a glide during the tattoo process, and also works well as aftercare. Apply a thin layer of CBD Glide prior to bandaging to help reduce redness and swelling.

CBD Glide is available in 2 sizes; a 155ml artist sized jar that will keep you working for a while, or a smaller 30ml jar perfect for resale to your clients.

Tip: Tattooing all day can be hard on your body. Try applying CBD Glide to your own sore wrists and joints for soothing pain relief.

Ink-Eeze CBD Soap

If you're looking something that feels a little less greasy, Ink-Eeze CBD Soap may be just what you need. It's specifically formulated to sanitize and reduce bacteria on the skin, providing temporary relief from the pain and itching associated with tattoos and piercing.

Tip: Another great resale item, CBD Soap is a great post-tattoo cleaning soap that will help reduce redness and soothe the skin. Help your clients keep their new tattoo comfortably clean, even when you're not there.
