I haven't quite figured it out yet .....but the cajeput stains
instantly on me, but my friends only get half of what I do. Does
that make sense? I have a really bad cold that has cut off blood
supply to my brain. Please bare with me. Since I have been
experimenting with the terped up stuff, I test it on myself first. I
put a dot on my wrist, wait 15 minutes, see whats there. It does
continue to darken for 24 hrs to a nice chocolate. It will stay
there for almost two weeks. I can tan fairly easy but I am fair
skinned. My friends maintain a semi-altered tan (tanning beds) year
round and it doesn't have nearly the effect on them. They have left
it on for several hours and don't achieve the color I do in 15
minutes. I have asked them to avoid any suntan lotion and what not
before I henna them. I do not get the same results. Still working
on it.

I was so excited with my results, but have yet to be satisfied with
my friends. There has to be something I am missing. I get such a
great color that lasts and they only get what I would call a mild
stain.
