5PM Shadow Original and BLVK Label are both professional SMP pigments, but they give the artist different starting points.
5PM Shadow Original
Original is the more versatile general-purpose base in the line. It is designed to be diluted into a range of working shades for hairlines, density, full-scalp work, and scar camouflage.
BLVK Label
BLVK Label starts from a deeper black concentration. It gives artists a stronger base when that is useful while still supporting dilution for client-specific working shades.
Which One Should an Artist Choose?
The choice depends on the client, the desired healed intensity, and the artistās mixing system. Original gives a broad-use starting point. BLVK gives a deeper starting concentration.
Both Should Be Customized
Neither product should be treated as a universal one-shade solution. Professional scalp micropigmentation relies on selecting and adjusting the working mix for the individual client.
Compare both inside the Professional SMP Pigments collection and use the Color Chart & Pigment Mixing Guide as a reference.
