Recipe 20 grams Henna Powder

RECIPE for 20 grams Henna Powder

  • In a small bowl, combine the 20 grams henna powder and enough lemon juice to form a thick dough (usually a bit less than 1/4 cup lemon juice) and 1 pre-measured vial of essential oils (or 1.5 teaspoons).
  • Stir Stir Stir. The henna texture will change as the powder absorbs the liquids. Keep stirring until your paste is well combined.
  • Cover completely and let sit in a warm location, 75-80 degrees F, for 24 hours. Use a thermometer to monitor temperature and avoid direct sun.
  • Once your henna as rested, test the consistency and add a few drops of lemon juice at a time until it's perfect. We like our henna to ribbon smoothly of a spoon like a thick cake batter. Others prefer a stiffer mix, that stands in peaks.
  • Fill your applicator and create gorgeous, unique henna designs on your friends and family!
  • Store leftover paste in the freezer for optimal freshness, up to 6-12 months. Every time you defrost and refreeze it'll lose some potency and stain power, so we recommend dividing into single serving sizes for storage.
