Criticality in models of correlated electrons emerges in proximity of a low-temperature singularity in a two-particle Green function. Such singularities are generally related to a symmetry breaking of the one-particle self-energy. A consistent description demands that the symmetry breaking in the self-energy emerges at the critical point of the respective two-particle function. This cannot easily be achieved in models of correlated electrons, since there are two ways connecting one- and two-electron functions that cannot be made fully equivalent in approximations. We present a general construction of diagrammatic two-particle approximations consistent with the one-particle functions so that both produce qualitatively the same quantum critical behavior in thermodynamically equivalent descriptions. The general scheme is applied on the single-impurity Anderson model to derive qualitatively the same Kondo critical scale from the spectral function and the magnetic susceptibility.
