The inks used in tattoos and permanent makeup (also known as micropigmentation) and the pigments in these inks are subject to FDA regulation as cosmetics and color additives. However, FDA has not attempted to regulate the use of tattoo inks and the pigments used in them and does not control the actual practice of tattooing. Rather, such matters have been handled through local laws and by local jurisdictions.

Love it!

AndiEnns says:

I love body art! I just have double ear piercings right now, but I'd love to have nose ring and maybe tattoos later on. I think it's a beautiful form of self expression, and it can be so meaningful.

Hate it!

mulberry says:

I'm not a fan. I've seens some small ones on the ankle, back of the shoulder that seem tastefule but other than that who wants to wear the same thing everyday forever??

I love looking at nice tattoos of other people but I don't think I will try it, to mention the dangers of infection it may cause.

In general I try not to deface my body. I have seen a few piercings and tatoos that are tasteful and even attractive, but it's probably not in my future. Nice lens!
