A few months back, Instagram user uglysxegirl created a viral video where she used\u00a0henna to create\u00a0freckles on her face. After applying the dye, she added a layer of foundation, and her freckles looked not only beautiful but natural, too.<\/p>\n
\nHenna is a vegetable-based dye that has been used since antiquity in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa to create temporary tattoos and dye fabrics.<\/p>\n
German YouTube star, Naomi Jon, saw uglysxegirl\u2019s video and thought she\u2019d look great with temporary henna freckles, too. Jon has a popular YouTube channel\u00a0where she shares beauty tips with over 700,00 subscribers.<\/p>\n
Jon bought some henna dye online and began dabbing on her face without any real plan. She put freckle-sized dots beneath her eyes, on her nose, and around her jawline and chin.<\/p>\n
Shortly after she applied the dye, her face began to turn red. \u201cIt burns a little bit,\u201d she said. \u201cIs that normal? \u2026 I have no idea if I\u2019m doing this right \u2026 This is either really brave or dumb.\u201d<\/p>\n
After applying the henna, Jon wasn\u2019t too thrilled with how it looked, so she tried to remove it with a makeup wipe and nothing happened. So she made a second attempt, this time with olive oil, and that did nothing either. \u201cI think I\u2019m going to cry after this video,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m laughing but I\u2019m crying.\u201d<\/p>\n
Clearly, Jon didn\u2019t realize that henna tattoos can last up to a month.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWELLLLLL,\u201d she wrote on her YouTube video, \u201csometimes I make bad decisions. This was one of them.\u201d<\/p>\n
