Jagua powder for blue-black body art

Our jagua powder is 100% pure Genipa americana with a natural organic preservative, and gives a natural blue-black stain that looks like a real tattoo, with no PPD. As a natural product, the powder colour can vary slightly from pouch to pouch without affecting the stain. Just 10g makes about 50ml of gel.

Raw powder or premix?

Jagua Powder: raw powder, so you control the thickness yourself. For every 10g, add 3g of xanthan gum, 3ml of essential oil and 50ml of water.
Jagua Powder Premix: xanthan gum already blended in, in 10g and 100g packs. For every 10g, just add 50ml of water and 3ml of essential oil.
Xanthan Gum: the natural thickener for raw powder or jagua liquid.

How to make gel

For raw powder, mix the jagua powder and xanthan gum together first.
Add the water and essential oil and stir into a smooth gel.
Leave it to rest, then stir again. For very fine work, strain the gel.
Fill cones or applicator bottles, and freeze anything you will not use within a few days.

Results

Apply to clean, dry skin and leave the gel on for about 1 to 2 hours, or until dry, then wash it off gently. The design looks faint at first, then darkens to blue-black over 48 to 72 hours and usually lasts one to two weeks. Do a small patch test first, and do not use jagua if you have a citrus or tropical fruit allergy.

Storage and larger quantities

Keep unopened jagua powder in a cool, dry, dark place, or in the freezer for long-term storage. New to jagua? The Jagua Powder Mixing Kit has everything measured out. For 100g packs at trade prices, see wholesale jagua, and follow our step-by-step guide on how to make jagua gel.
