Our henna is all natural 100% organic, and freshly made for you booking. The henna paste is hand mixed by myself and includes henna powder, water and eucalyptus oil.
The henna is applied to the skin, a minimum of 2hrs will be needed to allow the paste to dry and stay on the skin. The longer the henna is left on, the darker the stain will be. After the henna is dry, it will naturally flake off and leave an orange stain. The henna will develop over 48hrs to a deeper stain, which will then last for around a week. Naturally the henna stain will fade away.
After the henna is dry (this can be from 10 minutes after application in warm weather) a lemon juice and sugar mixture can be applied on top of the henna to help the henna stick to the skin. This mixture can be applied as often as neccessary. The longer the henna is left on the skin, the darker the stain. Affter minimum 2hrs the henna can be flaked off, DO NOT wash the henna off with water as this will prevent the henna from staining as deep. Then your gorgeous pattern is ready to go.
Henna will last for minimum 1 week and can last up to 3 weeks depending on the after care. The more contact with water on the area that henna is applied, the faster it will fade away. This also applies to scrubbing, waxing or exfoliating the area, which will fade away the henna stain faster.
Our natural henna is darkest 48rs after application, so it is advised that two days prior to your event will have the best stain.
