For piercings: Film is recommended where possible, but the cream can still work without it.
For large areas (e.g. full back pieces): Remove sections of the film gradually to help maintain numbness for longer.
For external use only.

We would not recommend leaving the cream on longer than 1 hour.
Each tube contains 10g and must be applied in a thick layer (approximately 2–3mm) for best results.
Coverage will vary depending on how thickly it is applied and the area being treated. As a general guide, two full tubes are typically required to cover a full forearm.
Applying too thinly may reduce the effectiveness, so always apply generously for optimal numbing.
You might not have the full effective numbing experience, we recommend always leaving the cream on for the recommended application time.
The deep numb can last up to 3-5 hours
The fast numb can last up to 1-3 hours
Yes, this is completely normal.
When the cream first takes effect, the treated area may appear paler than usual. As the numbness begins to wear off, it’s common for the skin to look slightly red or flushed. This happens because the blood vessels naturally widen again as sensation returns.
Mild redness is a normal temporary reaction and should settle shortly after.
Yes, this is completely normal.
When the cream is exposed to air, it may gradually change to a brown or pinkish colour over time. This does not affect its effectiveness.
As long as the cream has not dried out and has been stored correctly, it should continue to work as intended.
If you don’t have cling film, a sandwich bag secured with masking tape can work just as well.
Covering the cream is important, as it helps prevent evaporation and allows proper absorption into the skin. If the area is not covered, you may find the numbing effect is weaker or does not last as long as expected.
For best results, always ensure the area is covered securely but not too tightly.
Numbing levels can vary from person to person, as everyone has a different pain threshold and skin type.
However, when applied correctly and left on for the recommended time, most customers experience very strong numbing across the treated area.

Once opened, the cream should be used within 2 weeks.
Exposure to air can gradually reduce its effectiveness, meaning it may not numb the area as intended over time. For best results, ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use and store as directed.
After 2 weeks, we recommend discarding any remaining product.
We always recommend informing your artist before your appointment, so they’re aware that numbing cream has been applied.
While it’s not always essential for tattoos or piercings, professional awareness is advised.
If you are using the cream for any procedure other than a tattoo or piercing, you should always inform your practitioner beforehand.
No.
Our cream is water-based, not oil-based, meaning it will not interfere with the ink, the tattooing process, or the normal healing process when used correctly.
For best results, always follow the recommended application instructions.
