I do something like that with LL .... putting body glitter on the
dried LL, and talcum powder to keep it from sticking to clothes.
Looks fantastic when done carefully! Very beautiful! People are very
willing to let the henna STAY PUT AND NOT MESS WITH IT if you have
some sealant that actually looks cool! I have the winter "millinium
wrap" with tons of glitter confetti, and then the summer "sparkle
latex". If its just NS, then I can put in spots of glitter paint,
sequins, high wierdness with an extra dab of NS.

I do like to use NS under the LL ... because teeny lines DO fuzz with
the LL. The darkness with LL is precisely equal to a wrap. LL won't
endure flexing, and must be used only on furless regions and people
who do NOT have a LL allergy.

To check allergies .... if they are allergic to nail polish, they are
allergic to NS. If they are allergic to latex condoms, they are
allergic to LL. (You con't have to ask them details of how they
discovered that allergy.... but you'll see the terror in their eyes if
they say "yes")

If the day's over 90F and humid .... just do NS or some other light
sealer. Nothing else will be necessary.

IF you have gonzo terpines in your mix, you might not even need that.
I had CA henna mixed with lemon and a dose of frankincense oil, and
had some on my forearm for only 1/2 hour, no sealer, no nothing .. and
the stain was not too shabby! On my hand, I did Castle Art henna
powder just with the lemon and frankincense oil, and a NS fix, and
just slid on a porous food service glove ..... and OH MY GOD it went
SOOOOOOO dark! Espresso coffee black on the palm, rich dark chocolate
on the back. Alex has the pix, though, I don't. Sam or Jeremy would
verify the quality of color....
