Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between SK-19 and SK-18?

SK-18 — Very Deep Brown, Cool-Neutral. Slightly lighter with cool-neutral undertones. SK-19 — Dark Brown, Cool. Deeper with more pronounced cool undertones. For clients between the two: mix SK-18 + SK-19 in varying ratios for a precise intermediate match. SK-19 is the better choice when the client's skin is clearly darker than SK-18 and has a distinctly cool character.

Can SK-19 be mixed with other shades?

Yes — SK-19 is fully mixable with all other shades: mix SK-19 + SK-18 to lighten and reduce cool character. Mix SK-19 + SK-20 for the deepest cool dark result. Mix SK-19 + SK-17 to warm slightly for a neutral-cool dark brown. SK-19's cool character makes it an excellent mixing partner for adding cool depth to any dark formula.

What skin conditions can be treated with SK-19?

SK-19 is suitable for: surgical scars on dark cool-toned skin, vitiligo patches on dark cool complexions, stretch marks on dark cool-toned skin, hypopigmented areas on dark cool complexions, and post-procedure skin discoloration on dark cool-toned skin. The cool character is specifically designed for clients whose dark skin has a cool, ashy quality that warm or neutral shades cannot accurately match.

How many shades from the SK system should a studio stock to serve dark-skinned clients?

For studios serving a significant proportion of dark-skinned clients (Fitzpatrick V–VI): stock SK-13 through SK-20 as the core dark skin range. The neutral shades (SK-14, SK-16, SK-17) are the highest-demand anchors. Add SK-15, SK-18, SK-19 for undertone variation. SK-20 for the deepest complexions. Having the full SK-13 to SK-20 range allows precise matching across the full dark skin tone spectrum—mixing adjacent shades covers any intermediate tones not directly represented by a single shade.

Is SK-19 suitable for camouflaging post-inflammatory hypopigmentation (PIH) on dark skin?

Yes — SK-19 is suitable for camouflaging post-inflammatory hypopigmentation (lighter patches caused by previous inflammation or injury) on dark cool-toned skin. PIH hypopigmentation creates high contrast on dark skin—camouflage tattooing can significantly reduce visibility. Important: ensure the PIH is stable and not actively changing before proceeding. If the PIH is still evolving, wait until it has stabilized before performing camouflage. Consult with a dermatologist if there is any uncertainty about the stability of the PIH.
