Health & Safety

All of the products sold on this website are deemed safe for commercial use. However we recommend that all buyers and users exercise common sense and caution as follows:

Exposure to Lighting
The type of Ultra Violet light referred to within this website is termed Blacklight. It represents light wavelength in the region of 300-400 nanometres. The term UV is a widespread term for all electromagnetic light frequency of between 100 and 400 nanometres. Lower waves of below 300nm are used in tanning salons and germicidal equipment. UVA is the safest form of UV light but prolonged exposure should not be encouraged.

We have no knowledge of any documented evidence of any adverse reaction
from using this ink on the skin.
However, this product is not designed to be used as a cosmetic. It is not a sterile
product and as a result the following precautions should be followed.
Precautions
· Do not use too close to eyes, on mucus membranes or on sore or broken skin.

These products contain no known irritants but you should bear in mind that all people have different skin types and skin sensitivity. Before using any makeup product, we recommend you test a small area of the skin (for example, the back of the hand) to identify for reaction. In very rare and extreme cases (less than 1 in 5,000) a user may develop a rash or itching in response to application. In this instance, wash with regular soap and do not continue with use.

All products liable to staining are purchased and used entirely at the purchaser’s own risk.
