Questions

What people ask before they buy.

Anything else, our concierge will answer personally.

Ask our concierge

Is each formulation packaged separately?

Yes. LUME and SHIELD each arrive in their own packaging.

In what order do I use them?

LUME first, twice daily for at least 10 days, then twice a week. SHIELD every day as the last step of your routine, 30 minutes after LUME.

Is LUME right for my tattoo?

It works best on solid black, grey and colour work that has faded. Diluted washes may see limited results, so we do not recommend LUME for them.

What if my piece is larger?

LEGACY includes LUME 30 mL, for pieces up to a full sleeve or lower leg. For full legs, chest panels and back pieces, add LUME 50 mL.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. Every SKINGRAPHICA® formulation is dermatologist approved and suitable for sensitive and freshly tattooed skin.
