I use special, cosmetic-grade pastes that wash off cleanly, meaning you get the intricate design look without any waiting time or reaction worries. ### Why choose colored henna? Many of my clients come to me asking for a design, but they are worried about sensitive skin or the distinct, lingering smell of Nilgiri oil. Colored henna is the perfect bridge. Because it is cosmetic-grade and not made from the same plant-based ingredients as traditional henna, it is safe for anyone with allergies. It is essentially a beautiful, intricate, temporary tattoo that dries instantly, so you never have to worry about smudging your clothes or waiting for a stain to develop. ### Kids love it too I often use this for children's parties. Kids want the fun of having art on their hands, but they don't have the patience to sit still for 30 hours for a stain to darken. With colored henna, I can draw cartoons, balloons, and doodles, and they can run off and play immediately. It is colorful, vibrant, and always a hit at birthday parties. ### The Alta and Henna Fusion For my Bengali brides, I love blending traditions. Alta has immense cultural significance for the wedding ceremony, symbolizing fertility and auspiciousness. I often work with brides who want the best of both worlds, so I leave intentional, geometric spaces within the henna mandalas. These gaps are then filled with traditional red Alta, creating a stunning visual contrast that looks incredible in close-up wedding photography. It honors the roots while bringing in that modern, intricate henna style. ## About Rivaaz by Komal I’m Komal, and I’ve been turning hands into canvases since 2015.
