What is Mehndi design?

Mehndi is the art of painting the body in ornate designs with henna herbs.

Associated with transformation and transcendence, it is a beautiful and mysterious art form that has been used for centuries to heal, to adorn and to bless.

A paste is made from the crushed leaves of the henna plant mixed with other natural ingredients,

such as eucalyptus oil, lemon juice, and black tea. The paste is applied to the skin, and when

removed several hours later and it leaves beautiful markings that last from 1 to 3 weeks.

The longevity of a mehndi design depends on many factors .

Keep in mind that each persons skin takes differently to henna, as does the area of the body you choose to glories.
