I pulled this off another sight and just wanted to add it to the pool of knowledg. It was originally posted by Jeannie(jdwjme@webcruzers.com) at Botanical.com I wont relay all of it but this is what cought my attention. "A friend of mine from India says that in her country the darkening past added to henna paste in India includes a mineral knowen as "Bkack Lime", also knowen as "Kattha." She stressed to NEVER EVER try to use White Lim, knowen as"Chuna." This will result in serious skin damage." I have not tried this. I'm not sure where to get Black Lime and I'm not sure I want to add anything toxic to our past. But I just thought I'ed pass the info on.
