light brown stains

Hej,

On Tuesday, I came home and found my mom experimenting with a tube of
Shelly henna paste - just trying out designs and all that. When she
was done, I picked it up and redid the flower on my hand (outline
only) and then did the tip of one of my fingers. I didn't leave the
paste on all that long 'cause I'm still teaching and I can't have
anything *too* obvious on where the kids can see. Anyway, the paste
left a really nice subtle light brown stain that's hard to see unless
you're close. I like it, but I was wondering if there was a way to
get this type of colour from henna paste that you mix up yourself.
As it is now, I can get almost black stains on my fingertips from
Amy's henna, even when it's just mixed with lemon juice. Any
suggestions??
