Elevate your henna design to a rich, lush & vibrtant stain by following our aftercre instructions.
Jagua Gel Aftercare
Wash off your design with soapy water. When washed off, your stain will be invisible/ faint at first, then, over the next 24-48 hours, your stain will develop into a deep blue/ black colour.
Use water & any bath soap/ handwash of your choice.
Do not scrub your Jagua gel design & your skin for the first 48 hours.
Exfoliating your skin after your jagua gel design has stained weakens your stain rapidly.
Leave your design on for a minimum of 4 hours.
The longer you keep it on, the darker the stain.
Keep your skin (where your Jagua gel design is) moisturised with cream.
Avoid sleeping with your design on if you move a lot in your sleep. Wash it before you sleep. If you do not move as much in sleep, you can sleep with it on, so it stays on your skin for a longer duration. However, this is at your own discretion.
Natural Henna Aftercare
Do not wash your design off with water; this weakens your stain.
Remove your henna design with Mustard Seed Oil / Almond oil.
Use either a spoon or the soft edges of a knife to scrape off your design.
Keep warm for a darker henna stain eg: use a hot water bottle or put the heater on to keep yourself warm.
Steam your hands with whole cloves either whilst your henna design is on or once you’ve removed it.
Leave your design on for a minimum of 8 hours.
The longer you keep it on, the darker the stain!
When showering, apply Vicks vapour rub.
This acts as a repellent from the water, protecting your stain & darkening your stain too.
