RE:white ?

I believe it depends on what you're using it for. Eternal and Intezne are the shit, but as far as solid white highlights I've never used anything thats as bright as Starbright- bright white. I like to use Intenze white for mixing(even the opaque). I do the same with Eternal. I always go back to Starbright for the white highlights though. The truth is that even if you use the best ink, if it isn't placed in the tattoo correctly it's not gonna look right anyway. White always looks better when it's next to dark contrast. That's just my experience... Hope to have helped.

RE:white ?

it can depend on the person and it seems like when it's put in big chunks it can take alot longer to heal leaving the top layer of skin discoloring it. i have had it turn yellow on some peoples skin and it wasnt just me, other people tattooing them as well. i even had one turn yellowish and a few months later it turned back to a nice white, very strange. but like he said above as well light colors almost always need a dark contrast next to it to make it pop. i have seen niko i think use almost a solid white to do one of his painted sugar skull faces and it is as solid as can be, that i don't understand lol.
