⚠️ Risk
null The product poses a serious risk because the total content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), of which several are confirmed carcinogens, is 53.3 mg/kg. The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) considers that tattoo colours exceeding 0.5 mg/kg total PAH pose a serious risk, in reference to Council of Europe Resolution "ResAP(2008)1 on requirements and criteria for the safety of tattoos and permanent make-up".
