Trial using Glove in a Bottle

Subject:

Comments:
: In case this product has not discussed before I will let you know my : results. : The "Glove in a Bottle" product is a white lotion that claims to help : dry hands and also to act as a barrier to chemicals and other : toxins. It also says that once absorbed by the skin, it stays there : until natural exfoliation occurs (approx. every 21 days). I wondered : if the lotion would interfere with henna staining. : I used Mehndi Mud product on the top of my left foot using a simple : Celtic design. The design was symmetrical with thicker ribbon at : either end. Before application I swabbed foot with rubbing alcohol, : let dry, then applied the "Glove in a bottle" to a small area. I : applied the MUD with half the design over the Glove in a bottle : patch. I applied several layers of Freeman's facial mask after : letting the henna dry slightly, bandaged and left it on for 10 hours. : Fast forward 24 hours: The Glove in a Bottle product did not keep : the henna from staining skin.... however, it did result in a lighter : stain. : Conclusions: : Will not keep skin from absorbing stain. : Will keep stain lighter in areas applied, which could be a desired : effect. : Tracy : p.s. One idea would be to use the Glove product on your own henna- : stained hands to protect the current design while you are working on : others to lessen the accidental staining that sometimes occurs when : working with henna.
