Organic vs mineral pigments

On 26 October Olena and Justyna spent an hour comparing organic and mineral pigments under the laser: how to tell them apart, how they differ, how to choose a working technique for each and where paradoxical colour changes come from, with photos from the clinic and live questions.

  • Organic pigment is not "natural" pigment

  • Allergies: which colour reacts most often

  • Why brown brows turn red

  • Titanium oxide under the laser

  • Choosing a laser for organic pigment

What the webinar covered

The agenda, the hosts and the guest — exactly as we announced them before the session.

Why this topic

Not all pigments are equal. What a colourant is made of decides how it behaves under the laser beam — and what working with it should look like.

In this webinar we take a close look at two groups: organic and mineral pigments. We will show how to tell them apart, what characterises them, and why this knowledge matters when choosing a working technique.

We will look separately at paradoxical colour changes — situations in which the colour after a treatment looks different from what you expect.

What we will cover

Four topics, one after another — with live questions.

  1. 01

    How to tell colourants apart

    Organic and mineral pigments — how to recognise them.

  2. 02

    What characterises them

    What sets one group apart from the other, and what that means for working with a laser.

  3. 03

    What really matters in choosing a working technique

    What to look at before you decide how to work with a given pigment.

  4. 04

    Paradoxical colour changes

    When the colour after a treatment changes differently from what you expect.

Who this is for

  • Linergists and PMU artists considering adding removal to their services
  • Tattoo studios getting more and more correction enquiries
  • Salons and clinics planning to buy a device
  • People who already have a laser and feel they are working on instinct
  • Anyone who would rather learn from someone else's mistakes than their own
