How to store open henna cone ?

Quick Answer, should you keep henna cones in the fridge? As henna is a plant, the henna paste we create is perishable and can only be stored in the refrigerator or freezer until use. If left on a shelf at room temperature it can last for a day at most before the quality of the paste begins to deteriorate, thus affecting it’s consistency and staining quality.

Also the question is, how long does opened henna last? Unopened packets of Renaissance henna, indigo, cassia obovata, and other plant products, will easily last up to five years or longer if stored correctly. But once opened, it’s best to use them within 12 months as they may be less effective after that.

Also, how do you store unused henna? If you want to store leftover henna paste, protect it from light, heat, and air! Freeze your henna paste in a glass jar, heavy plastic, or wrapped with aluminum foil. If you freeze your paste right after you “terp” it, it will last for months with no demise at all!
