I recently had a tattoo done and was wondering about different lotions and the...

...tattoos appearance!? Right my tattoo is a all black tattoo with a bit of shading! It's scabed and peeled but looks really grey at the mo! My artist and other people with tattoos said there is still a layer of skin that will eventually peel off?! It's been 9days since the tattoo was done! I followed my artists instructions, he told me savlon until it stops peeling! He said I can use bepanthan but some people have a bad reaction with it and was just warning me! I know someone who did so being my first tat I used savlon as I know I'm not illergic to that! and was wondering firstly is the above true, about it will go back to black but not jet black?!
Also what's the best fragrance free lotion to put on it once it's healed fully? My artist told
Me cocoa butter but only once it's healed but what type or brand of cocoa butter? I want my tat to look as black as possible an I know there is going to be a layer of skin over the top which will keep it from looking really black!
I hope that makes sense! Also I live in the UK so no American products! Lol thanks in advance for any advice!
