I use orange flower water in my henna occasionally, also — mostly for
my hair. It's wonderful!

It's good with oranges, cinnamon and icing sugar for dessert on a hot
summer day, too.

With that in mind, along with lemon juice, I'm thinking of trying a
batch of henna with orange flower water, cinnamon and cloves. I love
those scents together.

And, since I mentioned icing sugar above, has anyone tried adding
that to their paste? It has such a silky texture and I'm wondering
if it has a different effect from regular sugar? Does it have any
effect at all?

Regards,

Marina

- Thanks. I think I'll stick to regular sugar, then. N/T Marina Waltz 02:11:32 7/25/2001 (0)
