The Tattoo Ink Authority

Moms Ink is rated the top ink worldwide among professional tattoo artists. Consistency is one of the main factors when using tattoo ink product. The consistency among the Mom's brand is extraordinary. Moms ink has come a long way. From just a few colors back in the early 90's to over 50 shades including the new Mom's Nuclear Colors (the worlds best, safest, and brightest black light sensitive ink). Research into the very secretive world of ink pigment manufactures reveals that Mom's ink is checked, double checked, and triple checked for color consistency, flow rate, and pigment life. Mom's Ink exceeds its reputation and continues to grow among the tattoo industry. We look forward to seeing what Mom's brings to the table in the years to come.

Kuro Sumi continues to be the worlds best outlining and shading ink in the world! For any artist that has not used Kuro Sumi black you are missing out. It outperforms competing outlining ink in price, performance, durability, shelf life, and much more. Tattooing on dark skin? No sweat, somehow Kuro Sumi stands out even on the darkest skin tones. Must be that Japanese formula they don't wanna give up. Kuro Sumi now offers gray wash and soft gray wash as well which are definitely worth checking out. This year they introduced Cherry and Bronze shading ink as well. Bronze looks like a sepia photo under the skin and can be purchased in 3 shades; soft, medium, and dark. Cherry looks similar to when and outline is first dropped under the skin, sort of a reddish deep tone. Nice.... Kuro Sumi continues to grow and keep its king crown firmly fixed as it pushes out competitors. Kuro Sumi colors however still have some work to top brands like Intenze, Starbrite, and Mom's, however many artists swear by them. Guess your gonna have to load your caps with some to find out for yourself..

Intenze kicks ass! Every ink flows nice, pops, and exceeds its great reputation among pro artists around the world. Intenze definitely contributed to making the art of tattooing what it is today. They constantly update their product line and even we have trouble keeping up with all the colors. If your looking for a straight up solid ink, buy some Intenze and start inkin. The kits are great ways to try out some of the colors you would never think of buying, which we find sometimes to be the best. Intenze will always be a staple in the industry.

We find that there is not too much talk about Starbrite other than awesomeness. That must be a good thing because we find that tattoo artists have a lot to say, so if there were complains to dish out we are sure to hear about them. Starbrite is one of those tattoo inks that does not need tons of advertising and marketing programs to put it on the map with Mom's and Intenze colors. Many artists swear by Starbrite. You can sense the old school feedback come through on comments like, "It's just simply great", "I would never even try any other ink", "I will be buried with my Starbrite set,"....... Get the point?
