I'm a dark skinned African American and I just want to know if it would contrast with my skin.

It's for a tatoo.

No white ink is more for pale skin, it will not come up on african american skintone.

I guess that would kind of depend on how opaque the 'ink' is. I'm sure any white ink would show up to some degree, but the degree to which it would contract depends on the opacity mostly.

If you're talking of tattoo ink - it's doable, but there won't be a great contrast since the ink is underneath your skin. You can try checking out photos online or in tattoo shops to get some ideas of how it would look.

I'm not sure what you mean by white ink. Are you talking about a white ink pen, a tattoo ink, white henny dye or what?

I'm not sure. I've never seen it, but if you want to go with a sure-thing, you might consider getting a UV ink tattoo.

I'm no pro, but I would think so. Be careful if it is not tatoo ink, it may be toxic to you.

Yes, just do it lightly, you don't want to make too much of a contrast. Put it under your bottom eyelashes and it will make your eyes twinkle, as long as it's put on lightly.

i'm black too... and it would show up.. i don't know what you need white ink for but if its for makeup purposes don't go heavy... because it will make you look a hot mess... but if its something like a tat you'll be fine
