Charming Mandala Circular Medallion Mehndi Design for Finger

A traditional mandala mehndi design designed for the fingers, featuring heart vine and floral vine. Rated as Medium, this pattern is perfect for Karva Chauth.

Finger designs are quick to apply and dry fast, which makes them practical when time is short. Fingertips have thicker skin, so the stain there usually develops darker than on the rest of the hand. This pattern suits someone who is already comfortable with basic lines, dots and petals and wants to practise even spacing.

Mandala means circle in Sanskrit, and mandala mehndi is built from rings of petals and patterns around a central point. A mandala in the centre of the palm or the back of the hand is one of the most recognisable mehndi layouts.

Application tips: Leave the paste on for at least four to six hours; the longer it stays, the deeper the stain. Dab a lemon and sugar mixture on the dried paste to keep it moist and stuck to the skin.
