l am experimenting with the henna body art; I've got the right powder, lemon juice, 100% lavender oil. l have not added any sugar but it stains only a light orange. Also, l have trouble making a cone without air. Any tip?
my henna paste seems a bit granulish, did i miss something
YOu may have henna with sand in it This is very common.
Here is a great easy recipe.http://hennacaravan.com/how/mix.html
YOu will need to clean ur skin well before applying the henna, leave the henna on for 6 hours or more, avoid water for the next 24 hours & wait for the dye to mature & darken ,this can take up to 36 hours.
