The product contains nickel (86 mg/kg) and lead (11 mg/kg). Nickel can cause skin irritation and induce sensitisation or elicit allergic responses and exposure to lead is harmful for human health and can cause developmental neurotoxicity. The Council of Europe Resolution ResAP (2008)1 on requirements and criteria for the safety of tattoos and permanent make-up recommends that the levels of lead in tattoo inks do not exceed 2 mg/kg and that the content of nickel in tattoo inks be as low as technically achievable.
