It was my first time meeting the family of farmers who harvest the henna found in our Earth Henna tattoo kits. You have likely not experienced “desert dry” until you’ve been to the outer reaches of the Sahara, aka The Great Desert. A hot wind was blowing like crazy, making it nearly impossible to see, …
I think what I like most about henna is how it makes me feel. I think it’s fairly safe to say that human beings love to decorate their bodies. Whether it’s with gems and jewels, make-up, tattoos and piercings, face-painting and airbrushing, scarification, or coloring our hair purple or orange, people on this planet …

What does your tattoo mean to you? We’d love to hear your story! I’ve been in the temporary tattoo world for 20 years, and in that time I’ve come to observe, admire (and sometimes recoil) at tattoos in all their forms—whether temporary or permanent.
