Hi, is there anywhere in the uk that will sell fusion ink without you being in a studio or registered?

Twinkle twinkle little "_ _ _ _", tattoo supplies in the UK, but with an extra "R" on the end.
Optimus "_ _ _ _ _", (transformers), tattoo supplies in Ireland, but they'll post to the UK.

This way it doesn't come up on searches and they wont pull it to stop attention being drawn, and yes I've gotten it from both suppliers without a problem.

@cymek74 Is Fusion ink that good? I keep going to buy the complete set from that first site but not quite gone through with it yet. How does it compare to eternal (my go to brand)

I genuinely don't see a big difference, similar consistency just a small difference in the colours, Eternal is very slightly more muted, but it actually looks better for some stuff, not better or worse either way really depending what your after, it heals and works the same as eternal, very good. The guy from Fusion was the guy who initially made Eternal, so the difference is minimal, I wouldn't go out of my way to get one over the other.

PS.
Fusion the standout colours for me are Periwinkle & Seafoam
Eternal..... Lightning yellow & Lipstick Red, everything after that comes down to what you want to do and what your after, I mostly use Electric inks for everything else now, and keep the above colours from those 2 brands, as they are the ones that I can't seem to replicate with Electric. Electric Ink for the record is so nice to work with, especially for rotaries, (I still maintain thinner inks work better with rotary machines), bright and very good for mixing and heals very nicely, the blues and greens are excellent. All of course just MO and what seems to work for me atm.

guys eternal, fusion, intenze, starbrite etc, are all awesome inks! i don't think none are better than others, some are just better for CERTAIN PEOPLE than others :)

they're all awesome, find one you like, can work with easily

i personally like to tattoo with fusion colours, i feel i'm not getting on with their greywash though i don't think it suits my style so i'm going to try a few more greywash sets soon until one clicks

i've seen amazing colour tattoos with eternal ink (A.D Pancho)
amazing colour tattoos with fusion ink (nikko hurtado)
intenze colours, domantas parvainis (robert zyla) etc, many more to name from each brand

be careful if you're going to start mixing brands though like some colours from eternal, some from fusion etc, if someone you tattoo has a reaction to a colour/ink brand you're not going to know what it's from atall, try to minimize things like that so if anything happens you have control/more knowledge of what it could be

i have weird reactions to kokkai-sumi (a cool greywash) it gives me super dry skin on the areas tattooed with it

i use nothing but eternal now but when i started i use mom's and for a cheap ink mom's was great, the only reason i stopped using it was because i read a few things about people having bad reactions with it, i did use fusion at a friends studio but didn't find it much different than eternal, nothing to go out of my way for.
