Everyone's skin is different so what works for one person may not work for another but this is the way I do it.
My process is right after final wipedown coat with A&D and wrap it up, keep it wrapped over night, next morning take a scalding hot shower and wash with soap and water, then blot with paper towel and let dry. When it starts to flake I put luberderm lotion on it, but only a little bit / very thin coat.
I used to do it the other way, keep applying A&D, which worked out really poorly for me. I have really light sensitive irish skin, the kind that burns and never tans, so maybe that has something to do with it.
Also the most painful tattoo I have gotten so far was getting a black and gray piece that takes up most of the back of my calf. The backs of your calves hurt like a son of a bitch.
