AfterCare Balm (1 piece)

Mehndi Paste Recipe

Ingredients:

• 50g high-quality LionMehndiArt’s Mehndi.
• 20g sugar
• Water (add gradually to adjust consistency)
• 17ml LionMehndiArt’s Mehndi Oil

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, combine henna powder, sugar, and mehndi oil.
2. Gradually add water while mixing to achieve a smooth consistency. Avoid adding too much water at once.
3. Use a beater machine to remove lumps and mix thoroughly until the paste reaches a mashed potato-like consistency.
4. Lightly sprinkle water over the paste to prevent it from drying out.
5. Cover the bowl with shrink wrap and let it sit for at least 6 hours at room temperature to allow the dye to release. Avoid air-conditioned rooms and direct sunlight.
6. Once the dye has released, mix the paste again and add a little water if needed to adjust the consistency.
7. Your mehndi paste is now ready! Fill cones and enjoy applying your freshly made mehndi.

Shelf Life:

• Mehndi powder & oil remain fresh for up to 1 year if stored properly.

Mehndi Aftercare Tips

• Always cover the tip of the cone and store it in the freezer when not in use.
• For the best results, use freshly made mehndi within 7 days.
• Keep the mehndi on your skin until completely dry (at least 5-6 hours; overnight is ideal).
• Apply mehndi on clean, dry skin—wash hands with soap before application.
• Do not use water to remove dried mehndi. Instead, scrape it off using aftercare oil, then apply aftercare balm immediately.
• Apply the balm 3 times over the next 24 hours to enhance the color and keep the skin moisturized.
• Avoid water exposure for 24 hours after removing mehndi—wear gloves or a plastic bag if necessary.
• The stain will initially appear bright orange and gradually darken to deep maroon or black within hours.

Aftercare Product Shelf Life:

• Aftercare oil & balm should be used within 6 months after opening.
• Always perform a patch test before use. If irritation occurs, wash off immediately.

Enjoy your beautifully dark and long-lasting mehndi ! 💕
