If you want to go the route of medical supplies for henna, try using
a syringe (altho you may have problems with clogging, see CCJ's post
above). I suggest that the opening be at least 0.5mm. I use the
Jacquard bottle (1/2 oz. gutta applicator bottle) with a metal nib
(comes in .5, .7 and .9 mm diameter opening). Great for doing henna,
and then screws shut for air-tight storage.
