That's a great idea to use single squares of toilet paper to L/S over
a pregnant belly. I've only done 2 preggy bellies in my 3 years of
doing henna, but I'm sure it'll come up again one day. I'll
difintely use the t/p trick! Thanks for sharing! Jen

: My experiences doing preggo bellies has been to make sure the mom-
to-
: be isn't allergic to any of the ingredients I am using. Also, the
: mom's have all ok'd it with their DR/Midwife.
: Instead of using new skin on them, I use the L/S. I always mix
mine
: up a bit sweeter, so it's even more sticky. I take squares of 2-
ply
: toilet paper, and separate them to 1-ply. Then after the L/S is
: dried (as well as it can), I put another light dabbing over the
: design, and extend the dabbing out on the skin. Then I place a
: square of the TP down and dab over that w/ the L/S. I continue
this
: until the design and a good area around the design is finished.
When
: the L/S dries w/ the TP, it kind of hardens, but there is still
some
: flexibility in movement because of using one square at a time.
