Hengua: henna and jagua paste

Hengua combines the warmth of henna with the blue-black of jagua. Our paste is made with henna powder, water and pure jagua liquid, and we strain it through a fine cloth before packaging, so it is ready for fine work. Fill your own cones or applicator bottles, and store it in the freezer until needed.

175g jagua henna paste: for personal use, practice or a few clients.
350g jagua henna paste: for busy artists and events, and better value than buying the 175g size twice.

80% water / 20% jagua liquid
50% water / 50% jagua liquid
100% jagua liquid

The more jagua liquid in the mix, the darker and cooler the final stain. To suit everyone, we do not add essential oil or sugar, so you can add these when it arrives. If in doubt, email us before ordering.

How to use hengua

Thaw the paste in the fridge or at room temperature, then fill your cones or bottles. Apply to clean, dry skin with no lotion or oil, and leave it on for at least 2 to 4 hours before scraping or wiping it off gently. As with all jagua, the design develops over 48 to 72 hours, so apply it two to three days before an event. Do a small patch test first, and do not use hengua if you have a citrus or tropical fruit allergy.

Storage and delivery

Divide the paste into smaller portions before freezing so you only thaw what you need, as repeated thawing and refreezing weakens the stain. As a fresh product, we recommend Next Day delivery within the UK. We can ship outside the UK at your own risk.

Prefer to mix your own? Use our jagua liquid in place of some or all of the water in your henna recipe, or try jagua powder premix, which can also be added to henna for hengua.
