A Safe Alternative to "Black Henna"Create black temporary tattoos with Harquus,

an FDA approved black body paint

Many people want BLACK temporary body art that looks like a tattoo. They want thebody art to last a few days, and to not wash off. It is dangerous and illegal to apply para-

phenylenediamine to skin; this is PPD, synthetic black hair dye, the main ingredient ofthe black temporary tattoo paste sold as "Black Henna". "Black Henna" can leave peoplewith severe scars and long-term health problems.

For more information on the dangers of Para-phenylenediamine as body art see:http://www.hennaforhair.com/ppd/ppdreaction/

http://www.hennapage.com/henna/ppd/index.htmlHenna is safe, but will not give people the jet-black mid-body markings that look liketattoos. There is NOTHING that you can safely add to henna to make it black. Anythingcalled "black henna" is NOT henna. Anything that stains your skin jet black within 20

minutes is NOT henna and is NOT SAFE.

Harquus is a word for various black cosmetics traditionally used in North Africa and theMiddle East. Durable black body paints have been made for generations by combiningplant resins and fats with carbonized wood, lignite, and cellulose. Chemically similarbody paints are available now, developed for the film and television industry, whenactors need realistic looking temporary tattoos for roles. These come in many colors.These paints are FDA approved. The ingredients of Harquus, Temptu, and similar safe

black body paints are isapropanol, ethanol, cellulose and cellulose derivatives, castor oil,with ultramarine blue and black iron oxide as the colorants. These paints are "set" withtalcum powder. These are absolutely safe, even on children. When properly applied, thistemporary tattoo looks identical to a REAL tattoo. These last for 1 to 5 days, dependingon body placement and care. When you wish to remove this temporary tattoo, you simply

wipe the paint away with rubbing alcohol or surgical spirits.

Online sources of harquus and other safe, durable, black body paints:http://www.mehandi.com/

http://www.temptu.com/http://www.amerikanbodyart.com/

Materials:

1) A small brush, size 0 to 52) Cotton balls and talcum powder for preparing the skin and setting the paint.3) Rubbing alcohol for cleaning the brush and correcting mistakes.4) Harquus or other FDA approved body paint and a tiny container to pour out one dropat a time.

Do not try to use a cheap brush! Cheap brushes paint messy lines.

Make sure you have talc talcum powder, not cornstarch!

Shot glasses and sake cups are very convenient for holding your materials!

Application instructions for harquus or temporary tattoo paint:

1) Clean the subject's skin with soap and water to remove cosmetics. If the subject hasoily skin, clean with an astringent to remove as much oil as possible.

2) Apply talcum powder to the skin with a cotton ball, and wipe away the excess. Thiswill prevent your harquus from "feathering" on the skin.

3) Shake your bottle of harquus. The pigments in the paint settle to the bottom of thebottle and you MUST shake the bottle each time to disperse the pigment. Put one drop ofpaint into your little cup. Allow that drop to evaporate. Pour in one more drop of paintonto the evaporated drop. Brush the two together and begin painting.

4) Apply the patterns. If your brush gets heavy with paint, rinse it in rubbing alcohol. Ifyour paint is too thin, evaporate another drop in your little cup. If your paint is too thick,add half a drop of rubbing alcohol.

5) When you have finished applying the paint, powder the patterns again with talcumpowder. Make sure the powder is "talc" and not corn starch. This powder will bind withthe paint to create a durable, realistic-looking temporary tattoo.

6) Gently rub the talcum powder into the skin. In a few minutes, all of the powder willbe absorbed into the paint. The paint will be water-resistant, but can be removed quicklywith rubbing alcohol. If you apply a second coat of paint and talcum, the harquus will bemore durable. When you are done, rub talcum powder into the harquus again, and dustoff the excess.

You can make your harquus last longer on the skin by dusting it lightly with talcum

power after bathing, or when it starts to look shiny. This will keep your harquus looking

like a real tattoo! When youre ready to remove your temporary tattoo, just rub it off

with rubbing alcohol or surgical spirits.

You can dust your harquus with opalescent lumiere powder for special effects:

Instead of brushing glitter over the body paint, brush "Ice" or "Iced Gold" Ben Nye

Lumiere powder (or the equivalent in another brand) over the paint. Use pale Lumierepowder, so it won't color the skin as it sticks to the body paint. Keep brushing on powderuntil the surface of the resin-based paint feels dry.

You can brush body glitter over your harquus for special effects:

Apply harquus as usual, and add Swarovski crystals for extra dazzle.

Instead of using talcum powder to seal the paint, brush glitter onto the slightly tackyharquus. Pour loose ultrafine body glitter into a small cup and brush it over the paintwith a wide brush. The example below was done with Jerome Russell Pixie Sparkleopalescent glitter, Swarovski crystals applied with Liquid New Skin, and harquus frommehandi.com.

You can see that the opalescent glitter in the bowl has no color of its own, but is highlyreflective. Opalescent glitter over black resin-based body paint reflects irridescent greensand blues.

When the paint is nearly dry, brush purple body glitter over this harquus. The glittersticks to the surface of the harquus, and creates a solid, dry, dazzling surface thatshimmers with every move. Swarovski crystals highlight the design.

Step by Step:

Clean the skin and lightly dust it with talcum powder. Begin painting.

Shake your bottle of harquus. The pigments in the paint settle to the bottom of the bottleand you MUST shake the bottle each time to disperse the pigment. Put one drop of paintinto your little cup. Allow that drop to evaporate. Pour in one more drop of paint ontothe evaporated drop. Brush the two together and begin painting.

Apply the patterns. If your brush gets heavy with paint, rinse it in rubbing alcohol. Ifyour paint is too thin, evaporate another drop in your little cup. If your paint is too thick,add half a drop of rubbing alcohol.




15/28

When you have finished applying the paint, powder the patterns again with talcumpowder. Make sure the powder is "talc", not cornstarch. Talc will bind with the paint tocreate a durable, realistic-looking temporary tattoo.

Gently rub the talcum powder into the skin. In a few minutes, all of the powder will beabsorbed into the paint. The paint will be water-resistant, but can be removed quickly

with rubbing alcohol.

Broad areas of harquus may be uneven, and need a second coat. It is better to apply twothin coats of harquus than to try to apply one thick coat. If you apply a second coat ofpaint and talcum, the harquus will be more durable.
