It is Natural & Halal :
The Jagua story begins with the Genipa Americana tree. Native to the rainforests of Central and South America, this tree often reaches up to 20 meters in height. These trees can live for several decades, with some even reaching the ripe age of a hundred years or more. The tree has a preference for humid, rain-soaked environments, making the Amazon basin its primary home. However, the cultivation and knowledge of Jagua have gradually extended beyond its native regions. Now, Jagua trees can be found in parts of Central America and even some areas of the Caribbean.
How does Jagua work?
Jagua Henna products create a dark blue to black temporary tattoo that lasts up to two weeks. The substance Genipa Americana oxidizes when exposed to air, this oxidation process is the reason that your skin can gradually darken. Once the tattoo is applied, we advise leaving the gel on the skin for at least 2-5 hours. When the gel is removed you will only see a slight stain, but don’t worry, the stain will reach its most intense colour within 12-24 hours. Jagua Henna tattoos will gradually fade as your skin regenerates.
Differences between Jagua and traditional Henna?
- Jagua will dye the skin dark blue/black while traditional henna will dye the skin red/brown.
- Jagua has been used for centuries by local tribes in Central and South America. while traditional henna has been used for throughout the Middle East, Asia and North Africa.
- Jagua has a different texture compared to henna. Jagua feels more as a gel while henna feels like a paste.
Why Jagua is NOT black henna
Jagua Henna is NOT black henna. Please be aware of black Henna products! These products are made of traditional henna mixed with the chemical substance ParaPhenyleneDiamine (PPD). PPD can be harmful to the skin and can cause blisters and scars. We advise against using these products to make temporary tattoos.
Jagua is the ONLY safe product that gives you a dark blue/black temporary tattoo. Our products do not contain these chemical substances. Our Jagua products are carefully researched, developed and produced. Because of this, always ask Jagua artists whether they can show appropriate Jagua Henna documentation.
What colour does Jagua give on my skin?
Whether your skin tone is dark or light, Jagua will produce a uniquely beautiful temporary tattoo. Typically, the stain appears black on dark skin and dark blue on light skin.
