D.I.Y Henna Ink/My Henna

I got this henna on my arm that I absolutely love! Becoming so attached to the Henna makes me want to make more. So in this blog link I will be showing you step by step how to make your own Henna ink.

Items:
.bowl
.fresh henna powder
.lemon juice
.sugar
.tea tree oil
.plastic wrap
.zip lock bag
.olive oil
.rubbing alcohol
.mild soap
.tape
.scissors
.gloves for handling henna ink

The steps:
1. Measure 1/4 of sifted henna powder into a bowl.

2. Add 1/4 cup of lemon juice while stirring.

3. Stir in 1/2 tsp of sugar and 1/2 tsp of tea tree oil.

4. Cover henna with think plastic wrap.
5. Once you have finished and the Henna is set put it into its applicator.

6. Clean your skin before placing the Henna ink there.
 You have finished making the Henna ink! If you do place it on you make sure to not smudge the ink. It takes at least 2 hours to dry that's the time when the blackish green stuff starts to fall of leaving a light brown henna tattoo.

This is mine:

1. Starting the design.

2. When the design is finished.

3. After 2 hours(black stuff has fell off)

The Henna can last from 8-16 days. It all depends on how you treat it. Enjoy!
