Organic Rajasthani BAQ henna powder.

WEIGHT

Available in 100 g and 500 g pack.

RECIPE - HENNA PASTE FOR BODY ART

The henna powder needs to be mixed with other natural ingredients to make henna paste for body art. Here is our tried and tested recipe:

• BAQ henna powder - 100 g
• Essential oil* - 30-35 ml
• Sugar - 40 g
• Lemon juice - 100 ml
• Boiled water (cooled)** - 100 ml

This recipe makes 15-17 cones (20 g each).

*We recommend using high quality essential oils (lavender, cajeput, tea tree, etc.) to ensure a dark stain. Lavender is the most suitable oil for sensitive skin, children, and pregnant women.

**Instead of using water you can use lemon juice only (total liquid in the recipe should be 200 ml).

DIRECTIONS:

1. Add henna powder and sugar in a bowl and mix.

2. Now add essential oil, water, and lemon juice and mix until no dry powder is visible. At this point the paste will be thick.

3. Cover the bowl with aluminum foil and leave it in a cabinet for dye release (20 to 24 hours).

4. Mix the paste really well until it is free from all lumps. We recommend using a stand mixer (but not handheld mixers). You can also mix by hand using a whisk. Now the paste should have a creamy and stringy consistency.

5. Strain the paste with a nylon stocking or a fine mesh strainer into a carrot bag and tie a rubber band/use a bag clip to close the bag.

6. Cut the tip of the carrot bag and fill your cones! Seal the cones with Scotch transparent tape and store in freezer. Thaw 30 minutes before use.
