Iron Sakura Tattoo Ink Pigment High Quality 20 Colors 15ml 1/2oz Each 20 Inks

The Good: None of the inks were spilled like others said. The packaging was VERY well done! It was a small box inside of a bigger box with that bubble packing plastic stuff around it which was great! The inks themselves are in real good shape, they look thick enough (please note "The Bad"), and the labels are clear to read (please note "The Ugly").The Bad: A couple of the inks LOOK watery but I haven't had to use those colors yet. I can't do anything but speculate about the consistency of them but they do LOOK very watered down. So far, that's the only let down.The Ugly: Yes, some are watery but the only ugly about this was the labels... I understand that these are manufactured in Taiwan but they DO have spell check. Orenge is not correct. Thankfully, that's all I got for this category. Just change the spelling on some of the labels and you'll be fine.All in all, buy this pack. It really is a good pack for the money and so far I haven't had any issues. IF there are any real issues, I'll let ya know.EDIT 10/22/12: Used the inks this weekend. They are runny and don't hold in the skin well at all. I won't buy these inks again unfortunately and now I'll have to redo some work in a few weeks. The orange and the golden barely went through the skin, the yellow ran off like water off a ducks back, and the black was SURPISINGLY gray. It looked like I was shading for an outline and I'm not happy.I'll be returning to my good old Kumo Sumi for my black and MOM's or Starbright or something for the color. This ink has been pretty much worthless though everything above about the packaging still holds true except me saying to buy the pack. Its not worth it. The ink is just too watery yet clogs the tips easily. How that works, I don't know. This is the first ink I've used that I'll never use again.Sorry, but truth be told this ink sucks ass.

Here is the deal, I read a bunch of reviews saying these inks do not sit well in the skin and was kind of worried. I got them and they are fine! I would say they are just the same as any other ink ive used. I think some of these people just have a hard time setting color in the skin and are blaming the ink. so far ive used the reds, blues, and greens all were bright and if you need to they mix well. Ive been tattooing in a shop environment for 6 years and these inks are about the same consistency as other inks I've used. Dont be fooled by fancy labeling and crap, even the most expensive ink is made of the same shit. As for the consistency of the ink, I had no running of ink, if you guys got ink running all over a client like "water off a ducks back" your doing something wrong yourself.INK IS FINE!!!!ITS DIRT CHEAP!!!!You would be a fool not to give this a shot. Worked for me! and "ORENGE" brings me back to tattooing in Korea and Japan. THANKS!

I'm not really trusting of these inks because of the ratings I've seen on different sights concerning them for being used on clients. So I use them as practice inks since they are inexpensive and it allows me to still hone my tattooing techniques and shading. I don't know how well they hold up on real flesh as I use more high end brands on clients, but they have great color tones and brightness on my practice flesh (I make my own gelatine skins to mimic porosity and elasticity of real skin)... but if they hold up as well on real flesh, for the price, I don't see why a person wouldn't want to invest in this set. It's a nice set and packaged nicely.

Just got it used it today on real skin colors are good and bright on fake skin not sure didnt try it skin takes pretty easy good ink one bad color was defected was ghost white

i bought this as a gift so i cant speak for the quailty but if and when i can i will do an edit!! i gave this a 5 because it was a great price and i ordered it the week before Christmas and i had it in 3 days!! also the inks came neatly packeged and there were no spills or leaks!!and everything was just in great condition!! so for these reasons i had to give it a 5!!! you get a great deal for the price!! hope you enjoy it!!

I thought when I purchased this ink it was going to be a so-so product. It actually works very well, I was inpressed with the quality and price. Yes there are better inks out there, that also cost a whole lot more money. I'm happy with this purchase.

Good quality inks that take to skin really well, also a good selection of colours, I bought this ink to replenish the ink I had been using and the difference is amazing, vibrant colors and it takes without going over the same spot multiple times, this ink also goes a long way, I only needed half the amount of this ink compared to my old ones, I gaurantee I will be using this ink on all my tattoos from now on, Very satisfied!

This has to be toxic.I experienced swelling, and what looked to be like a terrible skin reaction.I personally thought it was the worst ink ever! I have other tattoos, and my leg is still currently healing from the effects of this ink. The ink was so harsh that after the infection in my leg begin to ease up, my body physically rejected the ink, and begin to do everything possible to rid my skin of the ink. I was left with a hole in my leg that went the depth of the tattoo.I was highly upset with the aftermath. Now I am left with nothing but a healing wound.Not to mention the ink it too watery. I can not say that this will happen to everyone who uses this ink, but it leaves me wondering what the hell is in this stuff.
