One of the great things about working for Mehandi is that we, as employees, really do love the products. We use them at home every day. Nearly all of us use Ancient Sunrise® Henna for Hair products to dye and/or condition our hair. We use Ancient Sunrise® hair care and body care products in our daily routines. Many of us use Becoming Moonlight® body art products. Several Mehandi employees are licensed cosmetologists and/or body artists who use the products professionally. We also love to recommend products to our friends and family, and sometimes to complete strangers. Anyone who has used Ancient Sunrise® Henna for Hair long enough knows how common it is to be stopped in public by people admiring their hair. We’ll even keep business cards on hand for this very reason.
I had been using Ancient Sunrise® Henna for Hair for several years before I began working for the company. My enthusiasm for the products was one of the reasons I decided to apply. When I was a Customer Service representative, I loved that could recommend products I genuinely believed in. I never felt like I was pressured to “get a sale” or to talk up a product that I didn’t feel was great. It was more like I was getting paid to teach people about an awesome part of my own life. Now, I continue to do so through the blogs.
I asked my coworkers to list their favorite products from Mehandi.com and to explain why they love them. This article features our responses. It was interesting to see how our top picks differed depending on our own hair, skin, and professional needs.

Ancient Sunrise® Zizyphus and Juniper Shampoo Bar. This has been my go-to shampoo bar for a couple of years. It cleanses well and leaves my hair clean and conditioned without feeling too heavy. I love that one bar lasts for several months.
Ancient Sunrise® Amla Powder. I use it as a face mask about once a week. It helps to fight my acne, and exfoliate away dry skin. My skin looks more awake and feels smooth after I use an amla mask.

Ancient Sunrise® Rainwash Mineral Treatment. It never fails to perk my hair up. I use it before henna treatments and whenever my hair feels a little unmanageable and dull. It makes my hair soft again.
Becoming Moonlight® Gilding Paste. It is easy to use, creates beautifully fine lines for intricate designs, and I love that I can use a variety of colors and finishes over it for a wide range of looks.
Becoming Moonlight® Gilding Powder in Bridal Gold. The color is just gorgeous. It's one of my favorites to use when doing body art, and it compliments a variety of skin tones beautifully. Also works well as a subtle highlighting powder or eyeshadow. All of the gilding powders are extremely fine, so they are easy to use and a little goes a long way.

Ancient Sunrise® Rainwash Mineral Treatment. Makes my hair soft and more manageable.
Ancient Sunrise® Vetiver Shaving Soap. I love shaving my legs with the shaving soap. My legs are smooth and moisturized. I like that they have no artificial fragrance in them.
Ancient Sunrise® Amla Shampoo Bar. It removes the oils on my hair leaving it looking great. I don't need to use as much conditioner now. You can also use it as an exfoliating body bar.
Ancient Sunrise® Mango Seed Butter. I use this year product year round, it keeps my feet and hands from cracking. The butter absorbs quickly into the skin, without feeling greasy. I like that the scent is not overpowering.
Ancient Sunrise® Nettle, Comfrey, and Peppermint Shampoo Bar. My boyfriend Pete, loves this shampoo bar! This is the only dandruff shampoo that works for him.

Ancient Sunrise® Rainwash Mineral Treatment is gentle enough for my kid with sensitive skin to use. It makes a great alternative to a clarifying shampoo!
Ancient Sunrise® Rajasthani Twilight Henna and Ancient Sunrise® Zekhara Indigo are so easy to use and great for the hair. I've never seen hair look so good after being colored! The fact that fading doesn't occur is a huge bonus!
The Mehron “Paradise” 30-Color Pallet allows my creativity to be limitless! I can take it with me anywhere and use it for the simplest design or use it for something complex. This is a must have for anyone who has an artistic bone in their body.
Becoming Moonlight Glitters are rad. I love these because I can get a variety of shades of shine to suit my mood. My current fave is Garnet.
I honestly could go on and on with my favorite products we carry. I love all the things!

Ancient Sunrise® Zizyphus Spina Christi Powder. It makes my hair more manageable and reduces the amount of random flyaway hairs, it's easy to use and in general just makes my hair look better.

Becoming Moonlight® Gilding Powder as eyeshadow. The range of colors is amazing and I never fail to get compliments on my eye makeup when I use them.
Becoming Moonlight® Gilding Paste. It is great for extremely detailed work, it can be applied pretty much anywhere (given common sense) the mica and glitter colors are amazing, and I like that there is the choice between mica and glitter to suit the kind of design you are going for.
