Gift ideas for bride on henna party

Salam my dears,

I’m sorry I do not check so often my personal email, I know some of u were waiting for my reply , I appologise if I do not answer in time at ur concerns.. 

One of the many emails I got it has took my attention, is it from our sister “ Umm Kadhim” where she is asking to give her some ideas gifts for a bride coz she will be going next week to a party henna.

Here is some ideas for u and for other persons who wish to give a present but they r out of ideas….

Most common is gold coz it’s valuable and wonderful, perfumes,body care, but u can go for a branded watch,luxury bed mattress , deluxe kit robes, house decorations,electric devices for home, nightwear sets beside some books for marriage,Qur’an and don’t forget that the most important thing is the way ur gift will be packed .

That is half  the beauty of gift ! Add some roses and card together with ur gift to increase the beauty .

If u can afford to book to the bride and groom a room or a suite in a luxury hotel for a night or two nights marriage and they will always remember ur gift !

 

Henna Lips, Henna Eyes, Henna Lipsize

Salam 3likom and hi to my visitors and my devotee readers,

I was wondering if any one of u did ever used "Henna Lips" , "Henna eyes" or "Henna Lipsize" ? I'm asking this coz i'm planning to order it soon inshalla and a review of this product will be great before i will buy it.
A revolutionizing new product with henna being transferred into a pen format. 
The pen contains the equivalent of 5 kgs of henna powder! Complements our Henna range.

For those who never heard about this product :

HENNA LIPS -it's a kind semipermanent lipstick and lip liner made of natural ingredients. It's a long lasting color,  it's not smudging  and u won't have the sensation of sticky lips.

HENNA EYES - it's a semipermanent eyeliner which promise us to be unique, long lasting,touch proof it doesn't smudge and it's based on 100% natural henna extract that will not affect ur eyes bcoz of the chemicals used in the regular eyeliner.

If u use abundantly the arabic make up style, then  the only thing i don't like is that this product can not be applied on the inside eye :(  

Anyway it's good that at least u will wake up the next day already beautified :)

I'm very curious how long this will last...?!?

HENNA LIPSIZE- it's a kind of a semipermanent lip plummer for fuller lips.

No more hydroponic acid  girls ! he he he u must go for natural painfulness procedure ... For a fuller lips this product is best choice instead of surgeries.

They say even 1 month after, the color will still be visible ... Amazing, isn't it? 

I will defiantly try all of it , inshalla.

Henna

Hayakom Allah,

how u doing my dears , hope u all are great . 

Today i wanna write little bit about henna, as for i'm a big fan of it.

I admit i'm not good in painting and make in the designs , but i totally enjoy it when i go to salon for a henna painting.

I tried twice at home to do it by myself , and it was terrible , the worse ever i have seen , even the kids do it better than me :) he he 

So since that time i gave it up and i prefer going to salon to make it sure none will get amused of my henna .

Henna was used throughout India and the Middle East before Islam, and is also known as "Mehendi" (an Indian word). Henna is made from the leaves of a bush, the Egyptian evergreen plant whose shoots and leaves yield an extract which is mixed with substance obtained from various trees and shrubs. 

 Arabians crush dried berries from this plant to obtain a red powder. 

Black henna is reserved for the soles of the feet and hands while red henna is used for the tips of the fingers and toes.

Traditional henna designs were put onto hands and feet. 

It was often part of a special celebration of women, such as preparing for the wedding.

Now is it used to special events or even daily use.

 Women gathered to decorate the bride's hands and feet, and their own hands as well. 

 The designs are usually made to look like leaves, vines, and flowers or geometric patterns.

The history of henna goes back 5,000 years! It was not only for decorating hands and feet, but was used as a medicine, too. 

Even our Prophet Muhammad(saw) recommended using henna for some health problems.

The application of henna is a ritual which may take up to 6 hours. 
After all ingredients are mixed and designs applied the person shouldn't disturb painted areas for 6 hours or more, depending upon the richess of color and how long u want the design to stay on.

Anyway, i have a little secret -

 if u want ur henna to be long stay ( let's say for a week ) then u should use a little lemon juice with very little acetone ( the one u remove ur nail polish ). Try it and tell me if u got the wished results.
