: I usually keep a little baggie of alcohol prep pads in my henna kit.

Functionally great, but do your clients react emotionally? Even
imagining the sound and then the feel of an alcohol wipe makes me
expect a needle to follow. Unless you have them do it?

Is there a good scent to add to alcohol that will oppose the clinical
feel/smell? Camphor, eucalyptus, menthol, and cloves all can have
those associations for me. (To varying degrees.) Maybe lemon or tea?

I did find a neat dispensor bottle in a beauty supply shop - the top
has a pump action, but instead of squirting out, it goes into a little
well on the top. Keeps the rest of the liquid sanitary, but you can
still dip in or soak a wipe with it. I was thinking of trying it with
lemon sugar, but I haven't used lemon sugar lately.
