I remember a time when, if you were unhappy with something you bought at a store, you would return the product or call and ask to speak to the manager. What happens nowadays? One-star review on Amazon, Yelp, etc. This product is crap! The applicator tip was missing and the box …
I can’t draw to save my life, but if you’ve been following this blog at all, you’ll note that I have not been shy about drawing with henna on myself sometimes. They are not necessarily the most gorgeous designs on the planet, but hey, I had a great time. In one case, I used henna …
I was daydreaming about Christmas in India—where I would love to be in December or anytime, really—which got me thinking about Christmas and henna in India, like might there be any kind of tradition around Christmas and mehndi? Not so much, it turns out, since Hinduism is the major religion practiced there. But there are …
Now that the midterms are over, everybody has something to be happy about. Someone out there is thrilled that Ted Cruz bested Beto O’Rourke in Texas. And plenty of people are sad that Beto lost; but I bet they’re smiling at the thought of him running for president in a couple of years! Sometimes you …
It’s official. We are smack in the middle of fall. And as of last Sunday, Daylight Savings Time went into effect, essentially making us fall backward by 60 minutes, which means waking up in the dark (if, like most people, you have to be at work early in the morning), and heading home in the …

Trying hard not to brag, but Earth Henna is going places! By that, I mean places like Target, American Eagle Outfitters, Hot Topic, Earthbound Trading, Von Maur and Sprouts! Earthbound Trading is a fabulous chain of stores for free-spirited, curious bohemians, who love the idea of the nomadic and natural life. We’re so excited to be …
This week it would be hard not to reference the spectacle that played out on TV, computer, tablet, and phone screens as Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh took turns making their cases to a riveted American public about the sexual assault that took place nearly two decades ago. Personally, I am sick to my …
We’re thrilled to introduce our newest product, Nature’s Ink Freestyle! It’s like a jagua tattoo kit but not really, because there’s nothing to mix or assemble. You just open the happy purple box featuring Sugar Skull Lady with her rose blossom headdress, pull out the bottle of pre-mixed jagua gel, and start creating your own …
You may think you should get a henna tattoo kit because that one box can deliver anywhere from 15-30 beautiful henna designs that make you look pretty and special. But I’ll let the Moroccans tell you why you really want a henna tattoo! Here’s an excerpt from my book Mehndi, The Art Of Henna Body …
