Frequently Asked Questions

Why is SK-09 one of the most important shades to stock?

SK-09 covers medium skin tones (Fitzpatrick III–IV)—one of the most common skin tone ranges globally, representing a large proportion of clients across Asian, Mediterranean, Latin American, and Middle Eastern backgrounds. Its balanced warm-neutral character also makes it the most versatile medium shade—suitable for a wide range of undertones without requiring significant mixing adjustments. For studios building their SK collection: SK-09 is a must-have anchor shade for the medium skin tone range.

Can SK-09 be mixed with other shades?

Yes — SK-09 is fully mixable with all other shades: mix SK-09 + SK-08 for a lighter medium-warm beige. Mix SK-09 + SK-10 for a deeper medium-tan beige. Mix SK-09 + SK-11 for a deeper tan beige. SK-09's balanced character makes it an excellent mixing base for medium custom formulas.

What skin conditions can be treated with SK-09?

SK-09 is suitable for: surgical scars on medium skin, vitiligo patches on medium complexions, stretch marks on medium skin, hypopigmented areas on medium complexions, and post-procedure skin discoloration on medium skin. SK-09's versatile medium beige character covers a wide range of camouflage applications on Fitzpatrick III–IV clients.

How do I handle clients with olive medium skin tones using SK-09?

Olive skin tones have a distinctive green-yellow undertone that standard warm beige shades may not accurately match. For olive medium-toned clients: start with SK-09 as the base and assess the undertone match. If the client's skin has a distinctly olive quality, mix SK-09 with a small amount of a cooler shade to reduce the warm bias. Test the mix on the client's skin in natural lighting and adjust until the olive undertone is accurately matched. Precise undertone matching is especially important for olive skin—a mismatched undertone is more visible than a slight depth mismatch.

Is SK-09 suitable for camouflaging self-harm scars?

Skin camouflage can be a meaningful part of the healing journey for clients with self-harm scars. SK-09 is suitable for self-harm scar camouflage on medium-toned skin, with important considerations: the scars must be fully healed and stable. The client should be in a stable mental health state—ideally with support from a mental health professional. Approach these consultations with sensitivity and compassion. The procedure can significantly improve the client's confidence and quality of life when performed appropriately on mature, stable scars.
