Add Jacqard's 100% Pure Jagua Powder to any henna recipe for instant "hengua."
Shelf-stable, water-soluble powder, safe and 100% natural. Used to increase the potency of jagua gels, for creating jagua gel from scratch, or mixed with henna for “hengua.” Because it is soluble, Dehydrated Jagua Juice should be used as an additive for hengua and should not affect the water to henna ratio called for in the henna recipe.
