: Then add clove oil(if not allergic).: about 1ts of oil to 3 ts of hennapast.
http://www.oneplanetnatural.com/cloveeo.htm says of clove
oil: "Safety: Skin and mucous membrane irritant and sensitizer.
Always use highly diluted, and avoid use on sensitive or damaged
skin. Do not use during pregnancy."
25% is a very high concentration at which to be using clove oil. The
link below lists clove as one of the oils to be particularly careful
of with regard to skin irritation. Safe usage levels are more like 2
or 3 drops for a bottle or cone's worth of henna paste, and even then
a patch test is essential.
