Henna freckles or how to cheat genetics
We all want what we don’t have. And if what you don’t have are freckles, the beauty world has once again come up with a way to make your dream complexion come true. The secret this time? Henna. This historic body art technique has been used for decades in Middle Eastern countries, but traditionally only used on the face as a hair or eyebrow dye. This time, people are turning to this process to rock the freckles their mama never gave them. Here is everything you want to know about how to get that sun-kissed look in the dead of winter.
1 What is henna
Henna is a dye made from the dried and powdered leaves of a plant of the same name. So yes, it is natural. But before you run to the store, know that once the process is done, soap can’t do anything to make it all disappear. Henna is a semi-permanent dying method. Once it is on your skin, there is no getting rid of it before at least one week depending on skin type and other factors.
