For the best results:

Please ensure a patch test is completed 24 hours prior to use.
Numbing agents react differently for each person making a patch test essential before use.

Do not consume alcohol or drink excess amounts of milk 24 hours before using.

APPLY TO UNBROKEN SKIN
– Wash hands thoroughly
– Remove any excessive hair
– Make sure the area is clean, dry and not cold!
– Spread a thick layer over the area, around 2-3mm thick! Don’t rub it in!
– Cover it with plastic film – make sure its air tight, but not too tight. Masking tape is great for awkward places! (this process can prevent evaporation while encouraging slow and proper -absorption into the skin
– Wash your hands thoroughly after application !
– Leave for 1 hour
– Remove the film, wipe/clean the area (your artist/nurse will probably do this for you)

For piercings, film is better where possible but the cream should still work without!

For extra large areas (full back piece), when possible, only remove sections of the film at a time to keep the area numbed for longer

Only apply the cream to exterior skin
