Go hippy with homemade henna

 
Want to try some temporary tattoos this summer? Henna is your new BFF. It’s a paste-like substance that can be applied to temporarily stain your skin. GL found the perfect recipe for homemade henna that everyone can use.  It washes off in about a week and is totally pain free (unlike real tattoos!). You can make any designs you want with it (the more the better!). Celebs like Vanessa Hudgens and Katy Perry adore this easy boho look. They’ve been caught rockin’ it all over the red carpet.

 

 

What you’ll need:

1 cup water

2 teaspoons of coffee (black tea works, too)

3 teaspoons of sifted henna powder

1 teaspoon of eucalyptus oil

 

What you’ll do:

Step 1: Boil the water. Add 2 teaspoons of coffee to boiling water. Let it rest for a few hours, then use a strainer to remove coffee grounds.  Put henna powder and eucalyptus oil in another bowl. Don't mix it!

 

Step 2: Add coffee to bowl of henna and oil. For best results, transfer the coffee in spoonfuls.  Instead of mixing ingredients together, press liquid into powder and oil with spoon.
 

Step 3: Let paint set for at least six hours, and no more than twelve. You want the henna dye to have the consistency of toothpaste.

 

Step 4: Apply the henna! Go crazy with cool patterns. Try applying to your feet, hands and even stomach. Have fun!

I'm going on a long trip and I'll be going with 4 other girls who are a grade younger than me and my mom and their mom in their big red van.Driving up and back will both take 2 days and we'll have to stay in 1 hotel each way. I don't know what to do so I don't get bored! I have an ipod nano and touch and a kindle fire but I wont have wifi. And I think I might have to share stuff with the other girls. What can I do that will be fun for all of us?




Hey girl!

Load some games onto your iPod touch. Multiplayer games will be fun for all of you girls to play. Get some good books for your kindle. You could also get some magazines to flip through. Anything you can think of! Just have fun!

I think Henna is more of a cultural thing. Not "hippy" or "boho". Just saying. But it is very pretty, I've seen it on some people's hands before. Maybe I'll try this!

yes, let me go grab some henna powder from the pantry... seriously, itll be cheaper for a professional at bellydance camp to do one for me!

what exactly is henna, where am i supposed to get it, and who has eucalyptus oil sitting around the house?!?!?!?!?!? GL, I love you, but please think about this kind of stuff before you post it.

Sure, let me go grab the eucalyptus oil from my kitchen cupboard... NOT! What the heck is that stuff anyway? Where do you get it?
