A drawing ink from the Intenze range, in a 30 ml bottle, in the shade "Mario's Blue" — a deep royal blue, the signature color of the brand's founder, Mario Barth. The pre-dispersed formula, with high-concentration pigments in a vegan carrier, delivers a saturated and uniform color straight from the bottle. It is intended exclusively for drawing: sketches, illustrations, art projects, and design practice — useful both for tattoo artists preparing their work on paper or synthetic skin, and for illustrators seeking an intense and stable blue.
Can I use this ink for tattoos?▾
No. Although it bears the name of a well-known Intenze shade, this product is sold as a drawing ink, and its stated purpose is exclusively drawing — sketches, illustrations, practice on paper or synthetic skin. Use for any purpose other than that stated is strictly the consumer's responsibility, and the store assumes no liability for such use. If you need pigments for tattooing, choose products from the dedicated tattoo ink category.
What shade exactly is Mario's Blue?▾
It is a deep, saturated royal blue — the signature shade of Mario Barth, founder of Intenze. The undertones are balanced, without shifting towards green or violet, meaning it behaves predictably both applied alone and in mixes. It is a good choice when you need an intense, impactful blue for backgrounds, water elements, or skies in your drawings.
Can I mix Mario's Blue with other Intenze inks?▾
Yes, the Intenze range is formulated for mixing compatibility. Recommended combinations: with Snow White Mixing for a custom light blue, with Dark Purple for a blue-violet, and with Lining Black for a deep navy. Always mix in clean cups and use the mixture in the same session — do not pour it back into the bottle.
How do I keep the ink hygienic and how long does it last after opening?▾
The basic rule: never insert used tools directly into the bottle — pour the ink into separate cups and discard the excess at the end of the session. Close the cap tightly immediately after pouring and store the bottle at room temperature (15-25 °C), away from direct light. Do not refrigerate it. Unopened, the ink lasts 3-5 years; after opening, use it within 12-18 months. Shake it for about 30 seconds before each use.
Is it a vegan product?▾
Yes. The formula uses pre-dispersed organic pigments in a vegan carrier, and Intenze declares its range vegan and cruelty-free, without animal testing. Additionally, according to the manufacturer's description, each batch is tested in independent laboratories.
Who is this ink for — I'm a beginner, is it useful for me?▾
Yes, it is also suitable for beginners. Tattoo artists frequently use it for design preparation: sketches on paper, portfolio illustrations, and practicing lines and shading on synthetic skin, where an ink with concentrated pigment and medium consistency provides a result visually close to the final work. The 30 ml bottle is a practical quantity for regular practice, and the fact that it mixes easily with other Intenze drawing shades allows you to build your own palette gradually.
