How to use
- Shake the bottle well before each use to homogenize the pigment.
- Prepare the work area according to your clinic's hygiene protocol: gloves, protective barriers, disinfected surfaces and instruments.
- Perform a shade test (on paper or on a test area) before application, especially if you plan to mix the pigment with other colors from the range.
- If working on medium-dark skin, consider mixing with a darker shade from the Nuva range to achieve the desired intensity.
- Apply the pigment using micropigmentation equipment, following the usual technique and working depth for the treated area.
- Close the bottle cap tightly immediately after use to prevent drying or contamination of the remaining pigment.
- Store the bottle in a dry place, away from direct light and large temperature variations.
- Note down the shade and, if applicable, the mixing recipe used for each client, useful for potential touch-ups.
Tips from us
- Warm Medium is designed as a base shade — keep related tones from the range on hand to adjust the result lighter or darker, depending on the client.
- On very dark skin, a single medium shade may not provide the desired intensity — check if the range offers darker tones dedicated to this case.
- Always test a new pigment on a small area or on paper before using it on a client, even if it is a well-known product of the brand.
- Check the pigment's appearance (color, consistency) and expiration date before each session.
- If working with multiple shades simultaneously, label each bottle clearly to avoid confusion during the procedure.
Warning: This is a professional-use pigment intended for introduction under the skin during micropigmentation procedures — use it only if you are trained for this type of procedure. Follow your clinic's hygiene protocol: gloves, sterile single-use equipment per client, protective barriers, and disinfection of work surfaces. Do not dilute the pigment with any substances other than those indicated by the manufacturer. A sensitivity test is recommended before a full procedure, especially on new clients, and the final result varies depending on skin type, technique, and aftercare — no guarantee of results.
