Henna recipe
I use Mehndika Joey's Henna recipe.
Weigh
100g of natural organic tripple sifted Henna powder.
Essential oils
Add 30ml undiluted, steam distilled organic e.oils to help darken the stain. I use lavender and tea tree oil.
Cover
Add air-tight plastic wrap over the bowl and let set for dye release for 4-6 hours if mixed with water and 12+ hours if mixed with lemon juice.
In a bowl
add the Henna powder to mix the rest of ingredients.
liquid
you can use aprox 200 ml water or Lemon Juice. I like to use water for faster dye release.
Fill in a carrot bag
Fill in the paste in an icing bag to be able to fill your cellophane rolled cones.
Sugar
Add 40g of white or brown sugar to help the paste stick longer on skin.
Mix
mix all ingredients together until you reach a thick paste consistenciy
Seal
use clear tape to close your cone from the top and side and add your sticker label.
