Yes of course. You should ALWAYS put lotion on your tattoo. EVERYDAY you have it. It moisturizes your skin and it makes your tattoo look nicer because it will bring out the colors.
Just don't use anything scented or with vitamins. Lubriderm is recommended highly by my tattoo artist.

Yes, Keep Using It Until The Skin Feels Smooth And Doesn't Hurt At All Anymore, Even If You Feel A Slight Bit Of A Pain, Keep Using It. When The Day Comes Around When You Can Slap It Or Touch It, And You Don't Feel Anything AT All, Then You Can Stop. Also, Use That "Vaseline Intensive Care Skin Lotion," That's All I Ever Used. If You Are Like Me And Are Allergic To That "Tattoo Goo" Stuff, That Is Your Best Bet.

As long as it looks dry, keep putting a light layer of cream on your tattoo. Mine is a month old and I put cream on it every morning. Please use A&D lotion, or Curel. Don't use body lotion, it has perfumes in it that could react with your skin and cause your tattoo to not heal properly. Hope this helps! =]

If you want to be really sure, go to the tattoo place and ask them, they should know best since their the ones who did your tattoo. By the way what is it a picture of the tattoo? How did you get a two weeks tattoo? Hit me up on that one I want like a temp. tattoo.

i only used vasaline intensive care for 3 of my tattoos. they were healed up in less than 2 weeks.
don't use anything with a scent. and that tattoo goop is too expensive to even think of.

continue using lotion unitl your tattooed skin feels the same as the rest of your skin. however you should use lotion on a daily basis to keep your skin healthy looking and supple anyway.

you can use lotion but it shouldn't be scented but A&D ointment is the best stuff to put on a new tattoo

Is it fully healed? If it is, there is no need to continue putting lotion on it. If it is not, then you can put lotion on it but make sure it is unscented.

I just wanted to add that you shouldn't be using any creams that contain mineral oils (vaseline, petroleum, baby oil etc)
this does dry skin out instead of softening it.
It's cheap to manufacture and thus many brands use it.
Just thought I'd interject this. :)
