Tattoos are hecticly popular and most of us simply must have one at least…or three…or ten. Anyways, people usually go to the nearest or most reputable tattoo artist to get it done. We don’t really think about what we’re inserting into the skin. Not that it’s a bad thing. It’s obviously been tested and is usually, totally safe. It’s commonly known that tattoos fade over time. That’s because the ink is a foreign substance in the body and it’s actually attacked by our immune systems. It’s as if the ink is some kind of pest. Tattoo ink consists of two basic substances: pigments and carriers. Pigments are basically “colour.” When finely ground, these minerals, vegetable dyes, metallic salts etc provide the ultimate pigment required for tattoo ink. For example: Blue = Calcium Copper Silicate, Red = Iron Oxide, Green = Chromium Oxide, Yellow = Curcuma, Black = Carbon and White = Zinc Oxide. Carriers form the liquid component that assists in placing the ink under the skin. They act as a disinfectant and prevent the ink from clumping. Common carriers are: Listerine, Witch Hazel, Purified water, Propylene Glycol, Vodka and Glycerine. If that all sounds a bit out there, there’s the natural plant dye – Henna! Although some people have claimed allergic reactions to henna. At least we can guarantee that it’s natural. Using commercial tattoo ink is a gamble. You never know what’s been thrown into the manufacturing process. If you’re concerned its best to do a bit of research about the brands that your tattoo artist uses. Ink-Aflixion
