Hello this is Heather for Expert Village. Next we're going to add lavender just one eye dropper full, much less than the Cajeput and just mix that in there. So lavender while it does have monoterpene alcohol, so it isn't quiet as strong at bringing out the darker colors on that. Just mix that in. Like I said that's a pretty consistency for the henna but if you wanted to use an applicator that had a very fine tip, you might want it a little thinner. So what you can do is just add a little more lemon juice. Again, not too much it's always better to add more lemon juice than to have to add more henna. So mix that in and scooping the bottom so that you mix up the liquid withe the paste and make sure it's all even. There you go, it's consistency when it drops off of the spoon kind of in this way is about what you want especially for your fine lines when applying applicators. There you have it and what you're going to next do is put this into cones and we'll show you that in the next clip.
