ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
Empire Inks Raw Umber
Empire Inks Raw Umber is a professional brown tattoo ink with a neutral temperature and semitransparent opacity. Its tone is more neutral than Burnt Umber, making it useful for desaturating a color palette without changing the value of the shade, an important advantage in realism tattoos, natural pieces, wildlife, landscapes, and controlled color compositions.
This ink is part of the Empire Inks Color Series, a line made for artists who need control over value, chroma, opacity, and temperature within their palette. The brand’s mixing system allows artists to create more than 100 colors from a 10 ink set, making Empire Inks Raw Umber useful for tonal adjustments, custom blends, and natural transitions in professional tattooing.
When should you use it?
Use it during the color application stage of a body tattoo, especially when the design requires neutral browns, controlled desaturation, soft warm shadows, natural tones, landscapes, wildlife, or adjustments within a realistic palette. Shake the bottle well, pour the needed amount into a sterile ink cap, and apply it with a professional tattoo machine or cartridge on prepared skin. It can also be combined with other Color Series inks to adjust chroma and temperature while maintaining value control.
