Description:
Henna powder is a natural and plant-based dye that is derived from the leaves of the henna plant. It is a fine green powder that has been used for centuries for temporary body art, hair colouring, and as a natural hair conditioner. Our henna powder is sourced from high-quality henna leaves and is finely ground for a smooth and consistent texture.
Here are some of the benefits of using Henna powder for external purposes:
-
Temporary Body Art(Meganthi): Henna powder is a popular choice for creating temporary body art designs, such as intricate patterns and motifs. It is a natural and safe alternative to permanent tattoos and can last for up to two weeks.
-
Natural Hair Colouring: Henna powder can be used to dye hair naturally, without the use of harsh chemicals found in traditional hair dyes. It imparts a rich, reddish-brown colour and can also help to condition and strengthen the hair.

Scalp Treatment: Henna powder has natural cooling and astringent properties that can help to soothe and heal the scalp. It can also help to balance the pH of the scalp, reducing oiliness and dandruff.
-
Skin Care: Henna powder can be used to create face masks and scrubs that help to exfoliate and nourish the skin. It also has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, making it an effective treatment for acne and other skin conditions.

Sun Protection: Henna powder has natural UV blocking properties and can help to protect the skin from sun damage. It is a popular ingredient in natural sunscreens and after-sun products.
Here are some tips on how to use Henna powder for external purposes:
For Body Art(Meganthi):
- Create a smooth paste by mixing henna powder with warm water or lemon juice, and add a little sugar to help the paste adhere better to the skin.
- Apply the henna paste in small dots, lines, and patterns using a cone or applicator bottle.
- Once the henna paste is dry, wrap the design with medical tape or plastic wrap to keep it moist and warm.
- Leave the henna paste on for at least 4-6 hours, but ideally overnight for the best results.
- Once the henna paste is dry, scrape it off gently with a plastic spoon or butter knife.
- Avoid getting the henna design wet for the next 24-48 hours to allow the colour to fully develop.
For Hair Colouring:
- Mix henna powder with warm water or tea to create a paste, and let it sit for a few hours to release the dye.
- Apply the henna paste evenly to the hair, starting from the roots and working your way to the ends.
- Leave the henna paste on for at least 2-3 hours or overnight, depending on the desired colour intensity.
- Rinse the hair thoroughly with water and use a natural conditioner to detangle and moisturize the hair.
- Avoid washing the hair with shampoo for at least 24 hours to allow the colour to fully develop.
For Scalp Treatment:
- Mix henna powder with water or yogurt to create a paste and apply it to the scalp.
- Leave the henna paste on for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
- Rinse the hair and scalp thoroughly with water and use a mild shampoo to remove any residue.
- Repeat this treatment once a month to promote healthy hair growth and reduce dandruff.
For Skin Care:
- Mix henna powder with honey, yogurt, or rose water to create a face mask or scrub.
- Apply the henna mixture to the face, avoiding the eyes and mouth.
- Leave the henna mask on for at least 10-15 minutes or until it is dry.
- Gently massage the skin with warm water to remove the henna mask and rinse thoroughly.
- Moisturize the skin with a natural oil or lotion.
