... The legs can be a good choice, but truly, everyone’s skin is different. The thickness of the skin, color, hairiness, and the amount of time the hennapaste is left on all make a difference in the amount of time the stain lasts. The less traditional areas of the body, although they do not take ...
... huge, i tell ya, but i didn’t manage to get a photo of them. i thought it would be good if i brought home one of the cones to test the hennapaste. and guess what? i was lucky that i brought one home. after i snipped the tip, i found myself straining to get the paste out of the cone. not even a single ...
... through it but I have to say I can't wait for some sunshine. I'm also gearing up to do henna at a Bellydance convention tomorrow which means I have a batch of hennapaste curing on my kitchen counter.

... not a half-bad henna artist, if I may say so myself. In fact, I'd say I'm at least half-good. I suck at mixing hennapaste, apparently, but my designs on Bling turned out decent enough--especially considering my complete lack of expertise in the field. Behold what Bling did to my foot*: It's not supposed ...
... otherwise I'd have already redone walls of my abode with it. Add to that the rumor that there's hennapaste to be had at the Blokker, and I'm thinking I can't handle this much awesome. .
