Business Description

We are lovers of body art. We provide kits for beautiful and long lasting henna and jagua temporary tattoos. There is no PPD in Earth Henna products -- only pure henna from a Moroccan farm, and superior-quality jagua juice from the Amazon!
History
Established in 1996.
In 1996, we I opened the first temporary henna tattoo studio in the US. We wanted to provide an easy-to-use henna tattoo kit for home use. The search for good-quality henna took us to the outer limits of the Sahara desert, where I met a Berber family of henna farmers in Morocco. I watched them harvest the plant and bring it to the mill then sift through them to ensure a flawless application. After working tirelessly to find the best recipe, and going through cosmological testing. Our henna came back 100% approved, we threw a party! Thus was born our flagship product, the Original Earth Henna Body Painting Kit. Popular as this product was, we still searched for a temporary tattoo that presented a black stain. My journey to find the solution led me to the Matsés Indians deep in the heart of the jungle. After being introduced to the Jagua fruit, we again found a way to package the jagua extract and test it for safety. Thus was born the Earth Jagua Black Temporary tattoo kit!
Carine Fabius was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. At the age of eight, she moved with her family to New York, where she grew up until she heard the call of Miami's warm ocean and clear blue skies. In 1986 she moved to Los Angeles, where she worked in the public relations arena and later opened Galerie Lakaye, a home gallery now over 15 years old, which offers art from the Caribbean and Latin America.

Ms. Fabius is involved in many creative endeavors, including running Lakaye Studio, which manufactures a line of henna body painting kits; creating a line of one-of-a-kind jewelry designs; and curating independent museum exhibits -- but she enjoys writing best. She is the author of Mehndi: The Art of Henna Body Painting and Ceremonies for Real Life. She lives in Hollywood, California, with her French sculptor husband Pascal Giacomini and Tulip the dog and Scotch the cat.
