BLUISH TINGE TO SKIN SKIN
Skin COMPLEXION is how the skin feels.This aspect of skin coloring is made up by the filtering ability of melanin in the skin – which wavelengths of light are reflected versus absorbed. The way this melanin filters natural light adds a TINT to your skin BASE.
Also known as undertones, skin tones are the result of UV rays forcing your skin to produce melanin (the main constituent of your skin BASE) to protect itself from damage.It is created by the quantity of melanin producing cells located in the skin. Terms like light skinned or dark skinned are used commonly to describe a person’s BASE. Tattooers are ford to identify the base of a person’s skin to determine best techniques for design creation and application. This is what color we normally associate with our genetic (phenotypic) makeup.While often confused with one another, skin tone, color and complexion mean very different things: What Does Skin Color, Skin Tone & Skin Complexion Mean? Why Skin Color, Tone, and Complexion Is Important To Tattoos.Skin Complexion is the texture & appearance of your skin.What Does Skin Color, Skin Tone & Skin Complexion Mean?.In a perfect world, understanding the skin’s influence on design would be a priority during the creative process. Rather, it would look better hanging on the wall of the shop or over my grandmother’s hearth. Let me tell you, most of the artwork I see is amazing but it doesn’t seem to be designed for the body. Their choices of line weight and colors are focused on making a rad image appear as bright as possible, when set against a perfectly white screen. When creating a design for the body, most artists focus on contrast that is embedded into a piece of paper or tablet screen. (Before the hate mail comes in just listen up… This is an article about SKIN TONE not your client as a sentient being FFS.) Most tattooers aren’t thinking about the client when they draft up their designs – they are focused on creating ART (insert sarcasm). So why do tattoo artists post amazing designs that look great on paper but don’t show us what they would look like in our skin? I could claim laziness but I think it is something more simple than that. Let’s be honest – bright white printer paper backgrounds are not a skin tone we see in the real world. Skin color, tone and complexion are aspects of a tattoo client’s skin that seem to be rarely discussed now-a-days.
