Jerome Russell Cosmetics is proud to present its newest creation…Mehndi
Kit … a natural henna body art kit.
The Mehndi Kit consists of the henna powder, the dispenser, two self-adhesive
stencils and of course, the instructions.
One of the world’s most ancient form of art is now at your fingertips.
From the world of ancient India, Mehndi is a tradition that has been passed
from mother to daughter over many, many centuries. Mehndi was used to make a
statement – for the Berber women of Morocco, Mehndi was used to ward off
evil spirits; for Hindu and Islamic religions, it was symbolic in weddings as
an expression of love. Today, Mehndi has been revived and is used simply to
make a statement of fashion.
You can be elaborately creative, or subtle in the design you choose, without
having to go through the “pains” of having a real tattoo. Unlike real
tattoos, Mehndi is a natural temporary form of art, for both men and women.
Mehndi Kits and Mehndi Body Art Stencils will be available soon at your nearest
retail store or beauty supply outlet.
