12 CONES HENNA PASTE MEHNDI tattoo BODY ART Decor INDIA

Applying the design

Have a paper towel handy to clear the tip of the cone from time to time. Remember, the color and design will hold better if the paste is allowed to remain on the skin for at least 1 to 3 hours.

1. Hold the cone between the thumb and your index finger about 1/4 inch (6mm) from its tip. Touch the tip of the cone to the skin. Then lift up to release the henna paste. Trace the outline of the design on the skin, then fill in the details one section at a time.Lefties should begin at the right side of the design and work towards left.

2.As you are working the pattern, keep it moist so that it doesn't peel away. Use a cotton swab or a square to gently apply a lemon sugar solution-3 teaspoon (15 ml) lemon juice mixed with mixed with one teaspoon (5 mg) sugar- to the design. If you can, moisten the henna design every 1/2 hour for three hours.

3. When you are ready to remove the paste, apply any oil - eucalyptus, mustard, avocado, sesame, olive, almond-generously over the design. Then use the edge of a butter knife, a credit card or your finger nails to scrap off the hardened excess.

4. Avoid washing the area of henna design for several hours. After the paste has been removed, smear the area with oil again. Each day apply the body oil to the design; it will help the drawing last longer.Those with darker skin tones might want to reapply the design on the following day for a longer lasting pattern.

In my method, I place the cone in my hand between my thumb and forefinger and curl my remaining fingers in for support. my thumb is facing straight in a line at 180 degree angle to my arm, while the forefinger is perpendicular to it.

Hold the cone like you would a pencil, apply more pressure as you are applying and modify the cone so you can allow henna paste to come out of it.

PAINLESS BODY ART TATTOOS

Madonna has done it,  Liz Tyler has got it, and more and more westerners are embracing it.   

   Mehendi is an ancient Indian Body Art. It is used in creating intricate ethnic or contemporary designs and exotic patterns on various parts of the body, though traditionally applied to the hands and feet of women preparing for special ceremonies. Once thought only for women, men are finding it a nice alternative to permanent tattoos. But now both men and women enjoy the "temporary tattoo". The process of applying henna in this manner is called 'Mehendi', an ancient ritual and art form dating back 5,000 years and is considered good luck in India, Middle East and North Africa. No Indian wedding is ever complete without the mehendi, whichever part of the country the bride may be from, her hands are adorned with the lovely red hue of the mehendi.

   Painless temporary tattoos. Cutting edge. Cool. Painless. Fun. No needles, just a paste.

What was in this month might be out the next, so with Mehendi a lifetime commitment (like real tattoos) is not necessary as the designs fade within a 1-4 weeks.
