help needed with paste consistency

My first foray into henna was with a packaged kit, henna powder and a
bottle of liquid stuff form Lakaye. It worked great, but I want to
make my own paste. However, for some reason, it won't squeeze out of
the bottle right. The henna paste appears to be smooth and a nice
consistency, and occasionally it comes out of the bottle beautifully,
but then it either gooshes out or doesn't come out at all! Am I just
not sifting the henna enough? I've been using the same tip for awhile
(cleaning it after each use), do they get old or get paste build-up?
I've tried using a cone, and just don't like the feel of it. I prefer
the plastic bottles with the metal tips. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated. I'm sure everyone has heard these questions a
million times, but it's all new to me!
