Numbskin 5% Lidocaine Maximum Strength Pain Relief Cream - 30g

This was by far a miracle! I started my first session of my lower back for a cover up tattoo. Used uber numb at first and it didn't work at allllll! For the first time ever I had to take breaks and couldn't finish... also I was crying like a baby! I have over 40 tattoos. But my second session I used Numbskin and oh my lawdddddd I didn't feel nothing but the vibration from the tattoo gun! It did ware off after about 50 min but just replied and waited! You must massage a nice amount over the whole area after you shave it to open the pores so it seaps into skin, put another thick coat on and wrap with saran wrap for about 45 min to an hr then start tattoo! It's so worth the money I promise!

I purchased this as soon as I run out. I have to get a lot of IVs for medical treatments. And after being poked on for the last five years it just hurts. So before I go in for a treatment I will usually spread this on the area that I'm going to get injected in or IV through. It makes everything so much easier to deal with and less painful.

When I first received this, I literally laughed out loud. When I spent $50 on a tube of cream, I expected a lot more than I got lol. But I will say, this stuff seriously works. I got it to test out for a big piece I have coming up, I wanted to see how well it worked before putting it on and hoping it was gonna work for a painful area as I've never used a numbing cream before. The first thing I will say is FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE ON THE INTERNET. Not the ones on the box. Anyone who says this doesn't work didn't use it correctly. The placement of this tattoo wasn't bad as it is, but this numbing cream worked great. I was actually extremely impressed. The only spots that I felt any type of pain were the areas I just missed putting the cream on. Overall, this worked great and I was satisfied with the result. I was not impressed with the price and honestly I probably will not purchase again purely because of that reason. If I try something similar and cheaper and it doesn't work, I will indeed be coming back here.

First time using numbing cream for a tattoo session. I have to say, this numbing cream is AMAZING. I followed all the step from other customers how to use this cream correctly. This numbing cream last me for 3.5 hours. The thicker the cream and heat, the longer the cream stay. My session was only 1 hour. How I knew the numbing cream work, was when I felt my arm was cold and have a tingling feelings. Yes I would recommend this item to my friend and family.For those who said it didn't work, I believe you did not apply it correctly. REMEMBER your skin need to have a lot heat to active the cream!

Worked very well for my tattoo! I got a piece on my ribs - session was 3 hours, cream lasted roughly 2.

Worked like a charm for my tattoo. I literally didn't even feel my tattoo artist start. I had to ask him did he start lol. I only felt it towards the very end and by then I only had to feel it for about 5 minutes. Best tattoo experience ever.

I've noticed layering the cream makes it even more numb to the point you won't feel anything at all. My first tattoo I only did one layer and I felt some pain but not enough to make me tap out or cringe. The second tattoo was large and I layered it about 3 times while getting the tattoo I felt nothing. Also, this tube can last long you don't need a lot for it to work.

So here's what you do. Take a shower with hot water to open up your pours, exfoliate, as soon as you get out Pat yourself dry and then first apply a thin layer and work it in then apply a very thick layer and cover with plastic wrap and leave it on for at least 45 minutes, I left it on for like an hour+ And went to my appointment and the lady wiped it off and started the service and it was the most pleasurable experience I've had waxing down there. Seriously this stuff works. I was so happy.

I hardly ever come on here to write reviews, but this stuff works! I had been skeptical because of my low pain tolerance, but I followed the instructions by another reviewer, which was to wash the area with warm water to open up the pores (I started about 4 hours before my appointment) then I applied the cream and wrapped with Saran Wrap. I reapplied cream once every hour and re wrapped the area. Let me tell you, I hardly felt the pain. There was still pain in some areas, but it was VERY tolerable. Overall, I highly recommend this cream!
