Hmmmmn, why are they uv activated???? Because they have an iridescent factor.. Most things that have an iridescent factor are known carcinogens....That means a cancer producing agent....Let's take a cancer producing agent and pound it into an open wound!!!!!!! I dont think so...Besides if you want the ink that you can only see when it's under a black light, that will only last 6 months before it fades away.....But dont worry the cancer may hang in there forever.....
Remember Kids!!! There is no federal agency that checks out tattoo inks...When a new line of ink comes out, there are no inspections or tests....They will re-call it if enough people complain......Be carefull!!!!! Hope this helps

You should discuss the implications of UV inks with a tattoo artist that has experience with them.
