Abstract :
Application of Heena paste (Mehendi) by females is an integral part of all wedding & festive occasions all over India. Contact dermatitis to the traditional mehendi is extremely uncommon. There is a recent fashion trend to apply ‘Magic Mehendi’. Contact allergic dermatitis to this newer Magic Mehendi is probably more common. We report here a case of a 27 years female who applied magic mehendi during her wedding and developed contact allergic dermatitis to it. Our aim of presentation is make us all aware of the increasing use of paraphenylenediamine (PPD) in magic mehendi and the potential dangers arising out of it
