About this collection
Mehndi for girls and teens favours simple to stylish patterns — single mandalas, paisley walks, scattered flowers, finger-only designs. Fifteen to twenty minutes of application, suited for everyday wear and festivals.
A well-applied mehndi design lasts one to three weeks. Palm-side and sole skin holds the deepest stain (two to three weeks); the back of the hand and feet stain lighter and fade in about a week. Heat, moisture, and exfoliation all shorten the stain.
Leave the paste on for at least six hours, ideally overnight. Skip moisturiser before applying — it blocks the dye. Once the paste is dry, dab a lemon-sugar mix to keep it sealed. Avoid water for the first 24 hours after scraping the paste off.
For simple-tagged and easy-tagged designs, yes — practise the silhouette on paper first, hold the cone like a pen with the tip just off the skin, and start with a design that has open negative space rather than dense filling. Royal-tagged designs need a steady, practised hand.
