I have corresponded with Navaid before, when I first started experimenting with henna, about his colored pastes. I wound up going the natural color, mix-your-own route (in no small part due to the influence of this forum), but have since gotten a job that leaves me very little time to sift, mix, plan 12 hours ahead, etc. So I have a renewed interest in keeping some pre-mixed around. In response to your posting, I checked out his site & wrote him with some questions. He lists the ingredients of his natural paste as follows: 1.- Natural Henna Powder 2.- Tartaric Acid ( daily food item in asia, completely harmless ) 3.- Henna Oil 4.- Glycerine (sweet liquid made from fats and oils used in toilet products and medicine, one can apply in sore throat ) 5.- Mineral water (I have inquired as to what exactly he means by henna oil.) I will give it a try & add my comments on the results.
