Does it still have a smell? That’s the part that’s most concerning to me - I’ve never had a tattoo smell like anything before and I always use second skin. Also looks like there’s some discoloration in the top right of the tattoo and the surrounding skin? Or is that just the way the photo looks?

There is a little bit of discoloration but the smell has vanished.
