Hi Linda,

I find that sugar is more likely to make the paste seem even thinner
though smoother. To thicken, I just use more henna powder.
Sometimes when the paste seems thinner when I get ready to use it
than it did when I mixed it and put it into the applicator bottle, I
just take a toothpick or long thin stick and stir it up again.
Sometimes the thinness is just a separation and the thick stuff is on
the bottom. If that doesn't get it, I squeeze it back out of the
bottle and mix more powder as stated above. If I am not going to use
my paste right away, I try to leave the paste thicker than I usually
work with and mix more sugar and oil when I am getting ready to use
it.
