: Has anyone tried to stain there skin using walnut extract? If so
how
: would you apply it and how would you use it? Is it safe?

Walnut extract by itself doesn't really work, at least in my
experience.

And no, it is not safe, for the following reason:

Walnuts are the most allergenic type of nut. This means that people
who aren't allergic to other nuts may be allergic to walnuts. Having
one allergic reaction may increase your sensitivity to other nuts.
Reactions may bring a tingling or numb sensation, followed in severe
cases by a tightening of the throat, leading to VERY serious
consequences. Go ahead and patch test it on yourself before use. I
wouldn't advise using it on anyone you don't know.
