The festival of Karva Chauth will be celebrated on 1st November. Karva Chauth fast is observed on Chaturthi of Kartik month. This fast is special for every married woman because by fasting on this occasion they wish for the long life of their husband. According to mythological beliefs, Mother Parvati first observed this fast for Lord Shiva. Draupadi also observed this fast to reduce the troubles of Pandavas. Dressing up and adorning yourself on this day also has special significance. Women even apply henna for makeup.
Applying Mehndi on Karva Chauth is considered auspicious. There is a saying that the color of mehendi reflects the depth of love between husband and wife. Do you want to deepen the color of your mehendi naturally? So you should follow these tips.
wash hands first
Very few women do not wash their hands before applying mehendi. Do you know that due to dirt present on the hands, mehndi cannot be applied properly. Before applying henna, clean hands properly with soap or handwash.
Do not apply moisturizer
It is best to apply moisturizer on your hands as soon as you wash them. But this should not be done before applying mehendi. It is believed that the chemicals present in these can make the complexion of Mehndi dull. Therefore avoid applying moisturizer or cream.
let dry naturally
If you want to deepen the color of your mehendi, then let it dry naturally. Many women make the mistake of applying things on slightly wet mehendi. In this way, not only does the color fade but the design can also be damaged.
clove smoke
To thicken the mehendi color on your hands, you can try the recipe of clove smoke. Place some pieces of cloves on the pan and fry them on low flame. Show mehendi hands to them as soon as smoke comes out. This home remedy is very effective.
lemon and sugar
You can also try the home remedy of lemon juice and sugar. This is a very old home remedy. For this, take lemon juice in a bowl and mix sugar in it and make juice. Now apply it on mehendi. Keep in mind that you have to apply the juice only after the mehendi dries.
