How to apply Henna Powder To Apply to Skin... After you have made the Henna powder into a paste, place the Henna Paste in your applicator. Draw the design of your choice on the body. Apply the Henna Paste very thick, like cake decorating or puffy paint. Let the design dry and leave on for at least 4 hours. The longer you leave the Henna Paste on the darker the stain may become. Leaving the paste on for 24 hours is not uncommon. However, to continue the dark-deep staining process you must keep the Henna paste slightly moist using a mixture of lemon juice and sugar water. To apply the lemon juice/sugar water mixture to your Henna design use a q-tip or cotton ball and dab on very lightly as not to disturb the design. After you have allowed the Henna to dry ,scrape the Henna off with your finger. After the Henna is removed you may gently rinse off the remaining sticky lemon/sugar residue. Maintenance For longer life, several times daily, apply an approved Henna oil such as Eucalyptus or any Natural-herbal oil. Good luck!
