Okay, so the henna vendor who emailed me told me that he uses oxalic
acid, titanium powder, and terpinol in his paste. After some quick
internet research, I okayed the terp, and said NOOOOO to the other
two ingredients - oxalic acid can kill you if ingested and can burn
your skin. Titanium powder (I looked up titanium dioxide) seemed
less harmful but could still cause exterior and interior irritation.
I don't even want to know more about the oxalic acid, but have people
tried Titanium or titanium dioxide?
