@MandyKatDWP It's recommended for all numbing creams to help the cream absorb deeper into the skin. They recommend an "air-tight, water-tight dressing", so cling film (aka plastic wrap) works perfectly.

It's actually listed in the instructions for lidocaine / prilocaine numbing creams.

E.g.,
* emla.co.uk/how-to-apply/
* tattoonumbingcream.com/pages/d

Instructions from the EMLA website. Text reads: After applying Don’t rub in the cream; you need a thick layer for EMLA's numbing effect. Cover with an air-tight, water-tight dressing. When it's time for your procedure, you or your practitioner can remove the dressing and wipe off the cream.
Steps for use from the Tattoo Numbing Cream directions of use page: 1. Wash and exfoliate the area to be tattooed, lasered or pierced quite thoroughly with soap, water and exfoliator to remove dirt any dead skin. This will help the cream penetrate your skin. Dry area completely. 2. Apply a thick layer of numbing cream (2mm thick) to the area and do not rub it in. 3. Cover tightly with cling film or our patented Numbing Garments. If using cling film, for better results tape the edges. The heat under the plastic wrap or garment helps activate the cream, penetrate the skin and stops the cream from drying out. 4. Leave cream and wrap in place for 60-90 minutes before procedure. Do not exceed this. timeframe as you may risk damaging your skin. 5. After 90 minutes, let your tattoo artist remove the cling film, wipe the cream away with paper towel and wash the areas. Now you're ready for your pain free tattoo!
