The 30ml bottle is sterile packaged, with a safety cap.
How to use
- On receipt, check the integrity of the seal and the bottle's safety cap — the product is sterile packaged, and damaged packaging should not be used.
- Shake the bottle gently before each use, especially if it has been stored for a while, to homogenize the pigment.
- Into the single-use ink cap, pour only the estimated amount needed for that session — never insert a used needle or tip directly into the bottle.
- Apply Dark Purple in successive passes where maximum saturation is needed (backgrounds, floral elements, transitions to black), allowing each layer to settle.
- For gradients, you can work Dark Purple in combination with other Gen Z shades (e.g., Light Purple, Lavender) directly in the capsule, in small amounts first tested on a small area.
- At the end of the session, close the safety cap tightly and store the bottle vertically, away from direct light and large temperature variations.
- Dispose of leftover ink from the capsule and used needles responsibly, according to your studio's hygiene protocol — do not reuse between clients.
Tips from us
- Test the shade on a small area or document its behavior on the client's skin before covering large surfaces, especially when combined with other colors.
- For smooth transitions with other shades (Lavender, Light Purple, Dark Blue, Dark Red), mix gradually in the capsule in small amounts rather than assuming the ratio on the first try.
- Store the bottle upright, tightly closed, in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
- Visually check the pigment before each use — it should be homogeneous, without visible sedimentation or separation.
- As a consumable product, plan your stock in advance for scheduled sessions, especially if you frequently work with purple shades.
- Note the opening date on the label if the bottle will be used over multiple sessions, as a reference for stock rotation.
Warning: Tattoo ink is a professional-use product, applied exclusively by a tattoo artist under proper hygiene conditions: gloves, single-use needles and capsules, disinfected work surfaces. Do not reuse leftover ink from the capsule or needle between clients — pour fresh ink from the bottle for each session to prevent cross-contamination. Do not use the product if the bottle is damaged, the seal is broken upon delivery, or you notice changes in pigment appearance (separation, unusual sedimentation). Discuss any potential allergies or sensitivities with the client before application, as with any tattoo session.
