Complete guide: Intenze Gen Z Pure Blue 30ml
Intenze Gen Z Pure Blue 30ml is a professional tattoo ink from the Gen Z collection by American manufacturer Intenze, formulated to comply with the European REACH regulation. It offers a primary blue, pure and saturated, with no red or green undertones, designed as a mixing base from which other blue tones can be built. It is aimed at tattoo artists working in color styles — new school, neo-traditional, illustrative, color realism, or Japanese irezumi — who need an intense blue that remains visually stable after healing.
How to use
- Shake the bottle gently before each use to homogenize the pigment.
- Pour into sterile, single-use ink caps only the amount of ink needed for that session, without touching the dropper tip to skin or gloves.
- Choose the appropriate needle configuration for the technique: curved magnum (9–15 needles) for dense fill, round liner (3–7 needles) for colored lines, round shader (5–7 needles) for details and small areas — as per the manufacturer's recommendation.
- If you want other shades, mix Pure Blue directly in the ink cap before application: with Snow White Mixing for pastel tones or with True Black for a deep navy.
- Apply the ink with the tattoo machine — the product is described as compatible with both rotary and coil machines — working in controlled passes for even coverage.
- At the end of the session, discard any remaining ink in the cap; never pour it back into the original bottle.
- Close the bottle tightly after each use and store it away from direct light and heat sources.
Tips from us
- Test the shade on a small area or on paper before starting the work, especially when mixing colors.
- For fine and colored lines use round liner configurations, and for broad fills use curved magnum, as per the manufacturer's recommendation.
- Use Pure Blue as a mixing base: with yellow you get green, with True Magenta violet, with Snow White Mixing pastel tones, with True Black a deep navy.
- Keep the bottle tightly closed between sessions, in a cool and dry place, to protect the ink's consistency.
- Note the date of first opening on the bottle, as a reference for stock rotation of consumables.
Warning: The ink is applied by penetrating the skin, so hygiene is mandatory: work with sanitized hands and disposable gloves, use barrier equipment on touched surfaces, and pour the ink only into sterile, single-use ink caps per client. Never reintroduce used ink back into the original bottle and discard any remaining ink in the cap after each session, according to your studio's hygiene protocol. Do not apply to damaged, irritated, or infected skin and inquire in advance about any allergies or skin sensitivities of the client.
Frequently asked questions
What needle configuration works best with Pure Blue?▾
According to the manufacturer, for dense fill use a curved magnum with 9–15 needles at standard voltage. For colored lines go with a round liner with 3–7 needles, and for details and small areas use a round shader with 5–7 needles. The fluid consistency of the ink is described as ensuring a constant flow through any of these setups.
What is the difference between Pure Blue and Mario's Blue?▾
Pure Blue is a primary blue, cool and neutral, with no red or green undertones — it works as a 'reference blue' from which other shades can be built by mixing. Mario's Blue, on the other hand, has a warmer undertone and a distinct chromatic personality, being more of a standalone artistic shade than a mixing base.
Is Pure Blue good for mixing colors?▾
Yes, it is presented by the manufacturer as a good mixing base due to the purity of the shade. Combined with yellow it yields green, with True Magenta it yields violet, with Snow White Mixing you get pastel tones, and with True Black a deep navy.
How does Pure Blue behave after healing?▾
According to the manufacturer, the Gen Z formula is designed to limit the loss of saturation specific to blue shades, so the color remains visibly vibrant even after full healing. As with any ink, the final result also depends on the application technique, skin type, and the client's aftercare.
How do I handle the ink properly to avoid contamination between clients?▾
Pour only the necessary amount into sterile single-use ink caps directly from the bottle, without touching the dropper tip to skin or used gloves. Never pour leftover ink from the cap back into the original bottle and keep the bottle tightly closed between uses.
Does Pure Blue comply with REACH regulations for use in the EU?▾

Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between Pure Blue and Mario's Blue? Pure Blue is a pure primary blue, cool and neutral without undertones. Mario's Blue has a warm undertone and distinct personality, being more complex as a shade. Pure Blue functions as a reference blue for mixing, while Mario's Blue as a distinct artistic shade with its own character. Is Pure Blue good for mixing? Excellent. Pure Blue is the best blue in the Gen Z range for mixing thanks to its purity. With yellow you get green. With True Magenta you create violet. With Snow White Mixing you produce pastel tones. With True Black you make navy. It is the fundamental blue from which the entire blue palette is built. How does Pure Blue heal? Pure Blue heals exceptionally, maintaining its intensity and chromatic purity after complete healing. The Gen Z formula minimizes the saturation loss specific to blues, resulting in a vibrant, clean blue even after 2-4 weeks of healing. It does not shift toward green or grey as happens with inferior formulas. Is Pure Blue suitable for new school? Perfect. Pure Blue is the ideal choice for new school thanks to its electric intensity and chromatic purity. It offers a bold, vibrant blue that stands out in the color combinations characteristic of new school style. Dense first-pass coverage and excellent post-healing retention make it a favorite among new school artists. What needles are recommended for Pure Blue? For dense, saturated packing, 9-15 curved magnums at standard voltage. For colored lines, 3-7 round liners. For details and small areas, 5-7 round shaders. Pure Blue's fluid consistency ensures constant flow through any configuration without clogging or inconsistencies. Is Pure Blue EU REACH compliant? Yes, Pure Blue is fully compliant with EU REACH Regulation 2020/2081. The blue pigments used are reformulated without CI 74160 (Blue 15:3) in restricted concentrations. The formula respects all impurity limits and banned substances established by European legislation. Does Pure Blue work on dark skin? Pure Blue provides good results on medium skin but on very dark skin, like any blue, visibility may be reduced by natural melanin. For dark skin, a base layer of Snow White Opaque followed by Pure Blue for maximum intensity is recommended. Always test on a small area first. How intense is Pure Blue compared to other brands? Pure Blue ranks at the top of blue intensity available on the market, comparable to Eternal Blue or World Famous Blue, but with the advantage of EU REACH compliance. Its maximum saturation and chromatic purity make it one of the most intense blues compliant with current European legislation. Does Pure Blue need shaking? Yes, shake the bottle vigorously for 30-60 seconds before each use. Blue pigments tend to sediment over time, and shaking ensures uniform dispersion and correct consistency. Without adequate shaking, the first drops may be over-concentrated while the last are under-concentrated. Is Pure Blue vegan? Yes, Pure Blue is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. The formula contains no animal-derived ingredients. The blue pigments are high-purity synthetics, and all auxiliary ingredients are plant-based. The product has not been tested on animals and is certified by vegan organizations.
