Complete guide: Intenze drawing ink Bright Red 15 ml
A professional drawing ink from the Intenze range, in the shade Bright Red — an intense, pure and vibrant red, without deviations towards orange or violet. The 15 ml bottle is aimed at tattoo artists and illustrators who work on sketches, drawings and technique exercises on paper or artificial skin. Important to note from the start: the declared purpose of the product is exclusively drawing, not tattooing — using it for any other purpose is strictly at the consumer's own risk.
How to use
- Shake the bottle well before each use, so that the pigment is evenly homogenized in the base.
- Pour only the necessary amount into a separate container (disposable cap or godet) — never work directly from the bottle.
- Apply the ink with your preferred drawing tool: brush, nib holder or other illustration tool; for technique exercises you can also work on artificial skin.
- If you want a lighter or darker shade, mix small amounts in the container with other inks from the Intenze range and test the result before using it in your work.
- Do not pour back into the bottle the ink left in the container — the surplus is discarded, otherwise you contaminate the rest of the contents.
- Wipe the bottle neck, close the cap tightly immediately after use and store at room temperature, away from sunlight.
Tips from us
- Pour small portions: a 15 ml bottle lasts surprisingly long if you use disposable capsules instead of estimating large amounts 'by eye'.
- Always test the color on the surface you are working on (paper, artificial skin) — the final appearance of the shade depends on the material and your technique.
- The 15 ml format is ideal as a test size: you can figure out if the shade and consistency suit you before investing in a larger bottle.
- Write the opening date on the bottle and keep the label with the lot number visible — each Intenze bottle has traceability through the lot number.
- For mixtures, stay within the same Intenze range: the uniform formula of the range ensures compatibility between colors, without separation when mixing.
Warning: This ink has a declared purpose of drawing, NOT tattooing. Using it for any purpose other than the one mentioned is strictly the consumer's responsibility, and the seller assumes no liability in such a case. On the hygiene side: do not insert used tools directly into the bottle, do not return leftover ink to the bottle and keep the cap tightly closed — any contamination compromises the entire contents.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use this ink for tattoos?▾
No. The product is marketed as a drawing ink, and its declared purpose is exclusively drawing — not tattooing. Use for any purpose other than the one mentioned is strictly at the consumer's own risk, and the seller assumes no liability in this case. If you like the shade, use it for sketches, illustrations and exercises on paper or artificial skin.
What shade exactly is Bright Red?▾
It is the reference red from Intenze: an intense, pure and vibrant red, without deviations towards orange or violet. As with any ink, the final appearance depends on the surface you work on and your technique, so it's worth a quick test on the material used before integrating it into a piece.
Can it be mixed with other Intenze inks?▾
Yes. The Intenze range has a uniform chemical formula, so the colors are compatible with each other when mixing, without risk of coagulation or separation. Mix in small containers (caps or godets), in small proportions, and test the result before application. For lighter or darker variants, combine with other shades from the same range.
How do I store the ink so it doesn't degrade and remains hygienic?▾
Three simple rules: always work from separate containers and never return leftover ink to the bottle; wipe the bottle neck and close the cap tightly immediately after use; store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Shake well before each use, because the pigment can settle over time. This way the bottle stays clean and usable throughout its lifespan.
How long does a 15 ml bottle last?▾
It depends on how often you work and the size of the pieces, but 15 ml is a compact format, designed as a test option: enough to seriously evaluate the shade and behavior of the ink in your technique. If you pour small portions into disposable capsules, waste is minimal and the bottle lasts considerably longer.
Is the formula vegan?▾
Yes. According to the manufacturer's description, the formula uses high-concentration organic pigments dispersed in a base of purified water, vegetable glycerin and witch hazel, without animal-derived additives — 100% vegan and cruelty-free product. It is manufactured in the USA, at the Intenze facility in New Jersey, with gamma sterilization and a lot number on each bottle for traceability.

Intenze Bright Red 15ml is a professional tattoo ink from an industry-benchmark chromatic range, formulated to deliver a intense, pure and vibrant red without deviation toward orange or violet — the Intenze benchmark red. Intenze's patented formula uses high-concentration organic pigments uniformly dispersed in a base of purified water, vegetable glycerin, and witch hazel, with no animal-derived additives — a 100% vegan and cruelty-free product. Bright Red belongs to the Intenze General palette, one of the most comprehensive and widely used chromatic ranges in professional tattooing worldwide. The ink's medium consistency allows both precise lines at moderate voltages (7-8V) and fluid shading or dense color packing at higher voltages (8.5-9.5V). The pigment settles excellently in the dermal layer, maintaining its chromatic vibrancy long-term — Intenze is recognized for post-healing color stability, with minimal chromatic shift in the first 5-8 years. Brighter and purer than Eternal Lipstick Red, Bright Red delivers maximum visual impact with excellent saturation even on darker skin tones. Ideal uses: roses, hearts, blood, flames, new school elements, dramatic accents. Recommended for styles: neo-traditional, Japanese, new school, realism color, traditional. The 15ml bottle represents the perfect trial size: sufficient for 2-4 medium sessions, allowing real-skin color evaluation before investing in the 30ml or 120ml format.
