: To decorate the Ozzfesters, I expect to take in just henna/lemon
and
: mix in the EO just before it goes in the cone.
:
: I was suprised that Gwyn got ANY stain from the cone sat on my
table
: for 2 days ... the paste had gone black. I expected nothing ...
but
: there it was.
:
: I don't want to take chances with henna at Ozz, as I'm collecting
: their money .... BUT .... at Sirius, I want to hang onto the cones
: with the EO's and test what sort of demise the paste goes through
for
: several days. Be interesting to see..

Ive got some old paste sitting on the side ....shall have a look this
evening....thing that i have found is that it get more difficult to
work with....not so smooth....its not like it has dried out or
anything just kinda looses its elasticity and feels more like it is
coming out of the cone in little clumps rather than as a uniform
smooth paste. Overall i have used old paste before and the result is
not so good....however it does happen sometimes that you can have
some sitting there and it just doesnt seem to go off! I recall half
tube of Jani Kone few years back that i decided to use on a friend
came out great even though it had been opened for at least a few
months!
