Best Mineral Sunscreen for Tattoos: Meet Tattoo Goo’s Ink-Saving SPF

If you’re serious about tattoo care, daily sun protection is non-negotiable. That’s why we created the Tattoo Goo Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30—a broad-spectrum, mineral-based sunscreen specifically formulated to protect tattoos from sun damage and fading.

Whether your tattoo is new or years old, this is the best sunscreen for tattoos to keep your ink looking bold and your skin protected.


Why Use Sunscreen on Tattoos?

UV rays are the top enemy of tattoos. Without protection, sunlight can break down tattoo ink, causing vibrant colors to fade and crisp lines to blur. Applying a sunscreen for tattoos is one of the easiest and most effective ways to preserve your body art.

Even long-healed tattoos are vulnerable to UV damage. Whether it’s a beach day or a short walk outside, consistent sun protection for tattoos makes a big difference over time.


Why Tattoo Goo Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 Is Different

Here’s what makes this mineral sunscreen for tattoos stand out:

  • SPF 30 Broad Spectrum – Shields your skin from both UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays

  • Mineral-Based Protection – Made with non-nano zinc oxide for a physical barrier that blocks the sun

  • Tattoo-Friendly Formula – Free from oxybenzone, parabens, and harsh chemicals that can irritate skin or affect tattoo vibrancy

  • Non-Greasy and Lightweight – Applies smoothly without leaving behind a white cast

This is sunscreen that protects tattoos without clogging pores, irritating skin, or compromising your ink.


How to Use Sunscreen on Tattoos

  1. Apply Tattoo Goo Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 generously 15 minutes before sun exposure.

  2. Make sure to fully cover all tattooed areas.

  3. Reapply every 2 hours, or after swimming, sweating, or towel drying.

Tip: Only apply to healed tattoos. For new ink, wait until your tattoo is fully healed before introducing sunscreen into your routine.


A Daily Essential for Tattoo Protection

Think of sunscreen as tattoo insurance. Whether you’re hiking, hitting the beach, or just out and about, using Tattoo Goo SPF 30 sunscreen daily helps prevent fading and keeps your tattoos looking fresh.

It’s ideal for all skin types, and especially great for protecting color tattoos, black and grey designs, and even sensitive skin.


Protect Your Ink with Tattoo Goo

Your tattoos are art. Protect them like it. Tattoo Goo Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 is your go-to for lightweight, effective sun protection that defends your ink from fading.
