I know some people have incredibly complicated recipes, but that's
partly because they like messing around with herbs. Look at
Catherine's beautiful deep red hair: henna and lemon juice is all she
uses. Plain henna involves shoving the powder in a bowl along with
some water and lemon juice (and you can just get that in a bottle, no
hassle at all), leaving it overnight and applying it the next day.
From what I understand, the Lush henna needs to be mixed up with water
anyway, so I doubt there's anything to choose between them in terms of
ease of mixing, and they're probably the same in terms of application
too (I imagine the cocoa butter in the Lush one will affect the
texture, but I have no idea how).
