One of the most popular ways to enjoy mehndi is through the application of temporary henna tattoos. These tattoos are created by mixing henna powder with water or lemon juice to create a thick paste, which is then applied to the skin using a cone or brush. The paste is left on the skin for several hours to allow the henna to stain the skin, creating a beautiful and intricate design that can last for several weeks.
This is the most common type of henna used for body art. It is made from a paste of henna leaves, water, and other natural ingredients, and creates a brownish-red stain on the skin that can last for several weeks.
This type of henna is made by adding chemicals such as para-phenylenediamine (PPD) to the traditional henna paste. Black henna creates a darker, longer-lasting stain on the skin, but can be more risky due to the potential for allergic reactions.
This is a newer type of henna that does not contain henna paste at all. Instead, it is made from a paste of cosmetic-grade adhesive and body paint, and creates a white or metallic design on the skin that lasts for a day or two.
Henna is a popular choice for corporate events as it can add a unique and memorable element to the occasion.
