⚠️ Risk
null The product poses a chemical risk because it contains 48 mg/kg of the aromatic amine o- anisidine (CAS n° 90-04-0) which is a substance classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic, toxic and sensitising. In addition, it contains aromatic hydrocarbons such as styrenes and alpha-methyl styrenes which are also toxic. According to the Council of Europe Resolution ResAP (2008) on requirements and criteria for the safety of tattoos and permanent make-up' o-ansidine should not be present in tattoo ink.
