These henna cones are infinitely better quality than what was available locally. The paste is fresh and has a perfect consistency. It’s smooth and very easy to work with! The stain is beautiful, takes right away, oxidizes beautifully and there are no questionable ingredients.As other mentioned, the color on the outside of the cones does transfer to the hand of whomever is applying it, but it comes off easily and is in no way a deal breaker for me. I actually quite enjoy the look of the festive, colorful packaging.I had an ingredients-related question, as I was applying the henna on other people and was able to reach the company very easily via the contact info on their website to have my question answered.10/10 - highly recommend! I will be purchasing Zenia henna cones over and over again!The photo I included is is my own hand, just the morning after application. As you can see, the stain is gorgeous and it did darken even more over the following 24 hours as well.
