    Hi there,

    I am trying to decide what colors to use in my design and I was wondering if there are any colors to avoid that look average after time in the skin?

    Regards Darren

    Greens and Yellows tend to fade quicker over time than say blacks blues and darker colours.

    I also had a lot of problem with green color. When skin is very flexible this color gets stretch the most. I suggest using as less green as possible.

    I will suggest changing the background color. Somehow it does not much to Chinese culture. Maybe something between red and black?

    everybodies skin reacts in some way with different colours,some get irritations and some cant keep colours in, especiallyreds and yellows. the only sure thing is that all colours will fade in the sun if you dont protect them with sun block, white will never stay white, it will turn a yellowish browny colour after time.
    personally i have used intenze inks, starbrite inks …etc, but now i use K’s Premium inks… they all go in the skin with no fuss whatsoever and they stay as bright as the day they go in, you can easily mix them in the pot or even mix it in the skin, and can be diluted with just distilled water. and i have not heard of anyone getting irritations from them
    i dont use anything else now..
