    It's a paste of henna, which is studded with pretty shiny things. When it's dry, it just brushes off, leaving a "tattoo". You can see that on one of the other woman's hands.

    Yes, agree. I had to promise these women that their faces would not be shown. Morocco is an Arabic Islamic country, I'm sure you know. To ease their minds I showed them the shot, and paid the artist for it.
