Jagua Tattoo
What is Jagua?
Jagua is a natural ink derived from the fruit of Genipa Americana, found in the Amazon Rainforest and other parts of South America. Like henna, it is valued for its natural dye and skin-friendly properties, and is also used as an insect repellent.
Jagua stains develop into a bluish-black color within 6–12 hours after the gel is removed, resembling a tattoo-like tone.
Jagua is often mistaken for “black henna”; however, black henna contains harmful chemicals and is not safe to use on the skin. Jagua is natural and safe to use on most skin types.
