Sponsored Artist Program
The Sponsored Artist Program supports a small group of professional tattoo artists who use Tattoo Luv in their studios and share their honest experience.
This is different from the Tattoo Luv Family ambassador program. The Family is open to anyone — artists, apprentices, enthusiasts — and pays a per-sale commission on a personal discount code. The Sponsored Program is a curated relationship with working artists, with deeper discounts, marketing support, and terms tailored to the partnership.
If you’re not sure which fits, start with the Family. Sponsored Artist relationships often grow from there.
What We Offer
Three tiers, each with progressively more support. Specific discount levels, monthly volume, and added benefits are tailored per partnership rather than locked to a public price sheet.
Partner Artist
Our entry tier for working artists. Discount on Tattoo Luv, listing in our artist directory, a quarterly product drop, and community recognition through our social channels.
Pro Team Member
Deeper discount plus free shipping on tier orders. A more generous quarterly product drop that includes client demo samples and branded studio supplies. Regular social features, collab posts, and early access to new product testing.
Signature Artist
Our flagship partnership. Highest discount, free shipping, and an annual stipend paid quarterly. Enhanced quarterly product drop plus branded merchandise. Dedicated point of contact, regular features and blog takeovers, and direct input that shapes product development.
Featured Artist: Mike Mavretic
Skin Deep Tattoo LLC, Lebanon, PA
Mike Mavretic isn’t just our first Sponsored Artist — he was instrumental in developing Tattoo Luv from the beginning.
He tested early formulas in real studio conditions, gave us the honest feedback that shaped the final product, and identified the performance requirements that matter (stencil-safe, tube-friendly).
“I’ve been using Tattoo Luv for over a year now, and it’s become an essential part of my process. It doesn’t wipe away my stencils, doesn’t clog my tubes, and my clients love how their tattoos look. When you find a product that does everything it promises, you stick with it.”
— Mike Mavretic
Who We’re Looking For
- Active working tattoo artists (any experience level, any style)
- Professional online presence (Instagram, website, or portfolio)
- Willing to give honest product feedback — including telling us when something isn’t working
- Genuinely use natural products in your studio practice (or want to)
We don’t require massive followings or specific styles. Authenticity over follower count, every time.
How to Apply

Can I be sponsored by multiple brands? Yes. We don’t require exclusivity. We only ask for honesty about what you use.
What if I’m an enthusiast or apprentice, not a working artist? Check out the Tattoo Luv Family — that program is built for you.
What if I’m not selected? We’ll let you know personally. You’re welcome to reapply later, or join the Family in the meantime.
