Modern Day Use
In today's modern days, people are busy and can't afford time, a
modified method has been found. In that, the leaves are dried, powdered
and stored. When you want to use it, the powder is mixed with water and
applied to the hand and feet. The professional people use tamarind and
eukalyptus oil to be mixed with the henna. This gives the better lasting
effect of red color. Some people add their own other ingredients to
have a long last effect.
