Green Soap Tincture

Tincture of green soap is a staple in tattoo and piercing studios across the UK, designed specifically for cleaning the skin during and after procedures. This soft soap, crafted from vegetable oils and sodium or potassium hydroxide, is concentrated to retain glycerol, making it both effective and gentle on the skin. Despite its name, green soap can come in a variety of colours but is traditionally known for its natural yellow-green hue and its environmentally friendly, biodegradable properties.

Often referred to as “tattooist’s soap,” it’s widely used due to its skin-friendly nature, ensuring minimal irritation while soothing freshly tattooed skin. Its oily content helps prevent dryness, leaving the skin feeling hydrated. Green soap is also invaluable for piercers, aiding in skin preparation and the removal of blood during and after procedures. Beyond its application in tattooing and piercing, it serves as a pre-sterilisation soak for surgical instruments and as an aid in stencil application, ensuring precise transfers.

Upholding health and safety standards, green soap is essential for preventing cross-contamination and infection in the studio. Manufactured to the highest quality, it complies with European regulations, making it an indispensable tool for any professional artist dedicated to maintaining a clean and safe workspace.
