Re: Mehndi...

I know it comes out darker if your hands are hot/warm- your body heat helps the colour some how.
But try Vicks or tiger balm..That's suppose to help bring out the colour.

Re: Mehndi...

I dunno how much these tricks work, it depends on the mehndi and how it affects your skin...kinda like perfume on skin. Just go for mehndi with dye in it or layer w/glitter mehndi.
