*For best results, do not use any lotions or oils on your skin for 24 hours prior to application.

​

*Cleansing the area with alcohol before the application can help the skin to absorb more of the stain.

 

*Hands, forearms, feet and legs stain the darkest. The farther away from the hands and feet, the lighter your stain will be.

​

*Be extra careful with your henna while it dries. Henna is easy to smear when wet. 

​

*Leave the henna paste on for 4-8 hours. Overnight is best. The longer you keep the paste on, the darker the stain will be.

 

*To remove the henna brush it off with your fingertips or a business card.  Do not wash away with water.

​

*Avoid getting your henna stain wet with water for 24 hours after removal.

​

*Your henna stain will be light in color and will gradually darken over 48 hours after the paste removal.

​

*Apply olive oil or coconut oil to your stain to protect it from water when showering or bathing. 

​

*Your stain will have good color for 5 to 10 days and will fully exfoliate in 1 to 3 weeks. 

​

*Some things that can negatively effect your henna stain are Vaseline, mineral oil, baby oil, exfoliators, soap, chlorine or frequent washing or scrubbing of the design.
