The Dangers of 'Black Henna' and Why Jagua is a Safe Alternative - Temporalis

Temporary tattoos are a fun way to express yourself without the commitment of a permanent tattoo. However, not all temporary tattoos are created equal. 'Black henna' tattoos, in particular, pose serious health risks. Here's why Jagua is a safer alternative.

The Risks of 'Black Henna'

'Black henna' is not natural henna. It's made by mixing henna with a chemical called para-phenylenediamine (PPD) to achieve a black colour. PPD is a known allergen and can cause severe allergic reactions, including blistering, scarring, and permanent skin damage.

Jagua: A Safe and Natural Alternative

Unlike 'black henna', Jagua is a safe and natural alternative. Derived from the Genipa Americana fruit, Jagua stains the skin with a deep blue-black colour. It's free from harmful chemicals and is generally considered safe, with few reported allergic reactions.

Choosing the Right Jagua Product

While Jagua is a safe alternative to 'black henna', it's important to choose the right product. Always ensure you're using high-quality Jagua gel from a reputable supplier as Temporalis. This will ensure you're getting a pure, natural product that's safe to use.

Conclusion

When it comes to temporary tattoos, safety should always be a priority. By choosing Jagua over 'black henna', you can enjoy beautiful body art without the risk of severe allergic reactions. Ready to try out Jagua? Check out our range of Jagua gel products and start your Jagua journey today!
