Empire Inks White is best used for both highlights and mixing. Empire Inks White is thick enough for larger fields of solid saturation and thin enough for highlights. It is the highest lightfast white Empire has found, meaning it will stay white longer in the skin.

Empire's white is loved by many for highlights. This white has twice the amount of pigment, making it great for packing in. They grind the pigment up so that it can fit into the skin more allowing you to be able to pack more into a small space; making the tattoo brighter. Our white is not cut with water, which makes it a more pure white. This ink mixes well with color and is a cool white.

Empire Inks was originally developed in 2012 by Colt Brown in an effort to provide tattoo artists with a perfect system of gray wash ink. As a predominately black and gray portrait artist, Colt Brown understood the importance of ink consistency and workability, which is why Empire Inks Graywash Series is specially formulated with pigments ground to an extra-fine base powder. This helps the ink go into the skin effortlessly, producing the smoothest gray tones possible and minimizing unintentional peppered shading.
