30ml Applicator Bottle

30ml luer lock applicator bottle

A 30ml squeezy applicator bottle with a cap and nozzle. These bottles are the artist's choice for jagua body art, and work with henna too.

Available empty, or filled with fresh jagua gel.

Comes with 3 different tip sizes that simply press onto the bottle.

Why use an applicator bottle?

• Steady flow: gives smooth, even lines with less hand fatigue than a cone.
• Interchangeable tips: switch between fine detail and bolder lines.
• Reusable: wash and refill the applicator bottle again and again.
• Less waste: the cap keeps paste or gel fresh between uses.

How to fill an applicator bottle

1. Remove the tip and cap.
2. Fill the bottle with strained henna paste or jagua gel, using a carrot bag or piping bag for less mess.
3. Tap the bottle gently to settle the contents and remove air pockets.
4. Press on your chosen tip and squeeze gently to start the flow.

Tips

• Always strain your paste or gel first, so the fine tips do not block.
• Keep a pin handy to clear a blocked tip.
• Cap the bottle between designs so the paste does not dry in the nozzle.

Bottle or cone?

Cones are light and disposable, and many henna artists prefer them for very fine bridal work. Bottles give a more consistent flow over long sessions, which is why jagua artists often choose them. Many artists keep both in their kit and choose according to the design.

Cleaning

Rinse the bottle and tips in warm, soapy water straight after use, and leave them to dry before refilling.

Filled bottles

If you choose a bottle filled with jagua gel, keep it frozen until needed and thaw it before use. Once thawed, store it in the fridge and use within a few days.
