Is this just another ploy for more money or is there really some merit to it? I just always put sunblock on to keep mine from fading rapidly.....hmmmmm. Anyone else have a thought about it?

    Seems pretty new. The sunblock strikes me as a money ploy but the rest of it is a possibility I suppose. The problem with products like this is that it will be several years before anyone can really judge it's effectiveness.

      Haha, with the sunblock I meant so I don't burn. I mean I don't burn much but the side effect of me getting too much sun is the skin turns brown like there is no tomorrow. And normally I am white as hell. haha! So, I put sunblock on to keep the two-tone to a minimum.

      Yes, I was wondering the same thing. I sat here looking at it saying to myself "well that's gonna take a while to prove now isn't it?".

      Just wanted to hear peoples ideas about it is all. Thanx! :-)

        I looked at what they're selling and basically they're selling sunblock and an antioxidant solution, the sunblock is fine and can be bought anywhere and I doubt the antioxidant solution will do anything to help "enhance" a tattoo. Don't waste your money, I've been using just regular old 50 spf sunblock on my tattoos for years and they are all very bright and vibrant. The sunlight (UV rays) is what breaks down the ink pigments so if you block those with sunblock then it's all good.
