Henna is a paste that leaves a

TEMPORARY STAIN

on the top layer of skin

that lasts 5-14 days.

​

 

​​​​Real, safe, 100% natural henna is green in powder form,

and brown when it is a paste. 

Natural henna stains range from

light reddish brown to deep mahogany brown. 

Henna leaves a transparent stain that sits on the skin, so it works well on all skin tones. 

​

 

Natural paste is dark brown

when it dries on the skin,

not ever, ever black.

​

Henna paste is draped in designs and patterns

and then dries on the skin. 

After sitting on the skin for 2-12 hours, the paste can be removed (by scraping)

and water should be avoided for 24 hours. 

Henna stains start as a bright yellow color and develop and deepen (oxidize) in 36-48 hours.

​​​​Henna is made of fresh henna powder, sugar, distilled water or lemon juice, and essential oils. 

​

Because of a lack in research relating to the long-term effects of essential oils,

henna is not recommended for young children, 

especially since certain allergies have not had a chance to reveal themselves at a young age.
