It is made with the dried leaf and petiole of Lawsonia alba Lam. (Lawsonia inermis L.). This dye is commonly used in India, Pakistan, Yemen, the Middle East and North Africa. The mehandi patterns are quite complex and in some cultures they are used as a wedding ornament. In the West it has been used, although not widely, since the 70s.

To prepare the henna paste, the leaves are crushed until they obtain a brownish-green powder and mixed with essential oils and lemon juice that release the dye from the leaves, and sugar to give consistency.
