Welcome to the FAQs page for all your Henna/Jagua services, face painting, mural art, and portrait painting needs. Below are some commonly asked questions and answers to help you better understand our services.
1. What is the difference between Henna and Jagua? Henna is a natural dye made from the leaves of the henna plant, which produces a reddish-brown stain on the skin. Jagua, on the other hand, is a natural dye made from the fruit of the Genipa Americana tree, which produces a bluish-black stain on the skin. Both are popular choices for temporary body art.
2. How long does Henna/Jagua body art last? Henna body art typically lasts 1-2 weeks, while Jagua body art can last up to 2-3 weeks, depending on how well it is cared for. Factors such as skin type, location of the design, and aftercare can also affect the longevity of the design.
3. Why is my Jagua Nearly invisable after it dries?
Yes, it is common for Jagua stain to appear nearly invisible or very faint immediately after it dries. This is because Jagua takes time to fully develop and darken on the skin. The initial appearance of the design may be light or almost colorless, but the stain will gradually darken over the next 24-48 hours as it oxidizes with the air.
It is important to be patient and allow the Jagua stain to fully develop before judging the final result. Avoid getting the design wet or rubbing the area during the first 24 hours to ensure the best color payoff. Once the stain has fully developed, you should see a dark bluish-black color that can last for up to 2-3 weeks, depending on how well it is cared for.
If you are concerned about the initial appearance of your Jagua stain, wait for the full development period and follow proper aftercare instructions to achieve the desired color intensity. If you still have concerns, you can reach out to the artist or supplier for guidance on how to enhance the color or address any issues.

6.Do you use Cosmetic Paint safe for the skin?
Yes, hypoallergenic face paint is specifically formulated to be safe for use on sensitive skin and is less likely to cause allergic reactions or irritations. That’s the only paints, glitters, gems, and glues we use. We use Hypoallergenic face paint products that are designed to minimize the risk of allergic reactions by excluding common allergens and harsh chemicals from their formulas.
If a face painter uses hypoallergenic face paint, it can generally be considered safe for individuals with sensitive skin. However, it's important to note that everyone's skin is different, and some individuals may still experience reactions to certain ingredients, even in hypoallergenic products. It's always a good idea to do a patch test on a small area of skin before applying face paint to the entire face, especially if you have known skin sensitivities or allergies.
Additionally, it's important for the face painter to follow proper hygiene practices, such as using clean brushes and sponges, to reduce the risk of skin irritation and contamination. If you have concerns about using face paint on sensitive skin, you can discuss your skin type and any allergies with the face painter beforehand to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. We practice industry standard hygiene regimens.
