Pigments

 

You choose your pigment from the information here on this page.

 

If you’re inside the EU you can also use the pigment service for a prosthesis (explained here below).

If you ordered in the past, I have your choice on file.

 

 

  • You choose one pigment. That will be the base colour of your prosthesis.  
  • I ad colouring around the head, scrotum, and the underside of the penis shaft, as well as internally for added depth. The skin is slightly translucent to allow this colour variation.
  • All colouring is in the silicone itself. It is not added on. It can't flake or peel off. Over time, the colour may change due to contact with the oils in your skin, but it will continue to match your colouring.  
 

 

 

 

How to choose your pigment

 

There are 12 to choose from.  The samples are marked A-L.  You choose one letter.

 

Choose the best match. You’re looking for the best “fit”  not the exact colour of your skin.

 

 

 

 

This photo is here to give you a better idea of the overall look. 

The prosthesis shown here are t2 Phase3's. This photo is meant for colouring reference only.

Detailed information to help you choose your pigment is here below.

 

Colours used here are

F     D       J

B      K       E

K      L       A

G       C (with a more blue less red head)   H

 

 

 

 

While choosing the best fit for you, keep these points in mind: 

 

1. You have a lot of leeway with the colour for your prosthesis:  Genitals are often darker and even a different colour than the surrounding skin. So relax, don't worry.

 

2. Because of how light reflects, the prosthesis will look more like a part of your body, if the prosthesis is a bit darker than your skin surrounding the prosthesis. It is better to choose a colour that is too dark rather than too light.

 

3. Colours on screens, videos and photos vary. What you see on your screen will not be the exact colour. (You need to be aware of that, but it's not a problem, you don't need an exact colour, just a good match.)

 

4. The pigments represent a full range of human skin colours – keep that in mind – how do your skin tones and shades compare with other peoples? How light, dark, how red, yellow?  

 

5.  Consider different parts of your skin (thighs, arms - inner versus outer, nipples, genitals, variations in the palm of your hand). Look under different lighting (daylight, evening, inside – bright or dim lighting).

 

5. Is your skin more yellow or more red undertoned? This may help answer that question:   https://www.wikihow.com/Choose-Colors-That-Flatter-Skin-Tone

The pigments 

 

 

This photo shows all 12 pigments arranged light to dark (top to bottom), as well as from more red to more yellow (left to right).

 

 

 

 

The colour you choose will be the base colour for your prosthesis.

 

I ad red and blue to the scrotum and head.

For most, the scrotum and head are darker than the base colour. For B and E, the scrotum is darker than the shaft and the head is lighter.

For all, The penis is darker when erect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here in more detail. Each is shown from the front and the back.

Pigment Service

 

The pigment service is for orders within the EU.

There is no charge for the service – just the cost of postage to return the pigment set to me.

 

 

Pigment service Process

After you’ve ordered your prosthesis, I can mail you the pigment samples. 

You send me your choice via e-mail and send the samples back to me.

You pay to send the samples back to me. They weigh about 20 grams and fit into a regular envelope

 

 

 

The Pigment set was made in communication with customers/collaborators during the initial years of the project.
