New Skin is in pharmacies and grocery stores, available widely in
liquid and less widely in spray on. It's in the band-aid section, I
pay $3.75 and $4.09 at the two stores hereabouts. One online henna
supplier charges twice that much. Use it LIGHTLY! One 1 oz spray
bottle should last you 6 to 10 hands!
I describes getting it off in the followup just below. Oil.
(Cocoa butter...whatever) Patience. That does it.
One thing that it's phenomenal for.....if you henna the soles of your
feet in tiny delicate patterns, spray them 2 ot 3 times over with NS,
then wrap, and you can walk around in slippers all day and not budge a
bit of the pattern! Even 1 spray and you'll be able to trot out of
bed with your wrapped feet to do nighttime necessities without
spoiling your pattern. At parties, I NS the people when their henna
is dry, and let them party on the rest of the evening showing off
their henna, then have them stop back for their wrap before they
leave.
