if you have small tattoos this should suffice [SEP] if you have small tattoos this should suffice but applying it to larger tattoos and exhausting and not worth the effort compared to spray on sunblock while the greasy spray on sunblock covers the large areas that need to be protected in little time and has the bonus of giving off that wet fresh tattoo look this stick is the between the size of a glue stick and chapstick and is more coarse than the application of deodorant or chapstick thus not an enjoyable experience to apply to larger tattoos
