Bindi- The Forehead Art- Part- 9

Sticker Bindis

Bindis or Sindhur or Kumkum is a must for us Indian Women. It adds beauty and completes our make up. In earlier days, powder or liquid was used. Now sticker bindis which are ready made are used. Now a days very few use the powder or liquid. 

Sticker Bindis have become very popular because

• easy to wear
• just stick on the forehead and they stay there
• no fear of getting wiped off just with an accidental swipe of hand or from water or sweat
• easily available
• available in many colours, shapes and sizes
• costs less
• easy to carry
• can be reused many times
• available in simple designs for daily use
• fancy and designer-wear available  at reasonable cost which look grand with pearl or stones 

So these days most of us wear sticker Bindis. I love collecting a variety of Bindis, though I may not wear some of them.  

Here are some from my collection of designer Bindis:

The center design is worn on the forehead between the eyebrows and the curved ones above the eye brows. Usually worn by the bride or by traditional dancers.

One can wear it on special occasions or parties. Some are simple some are heavy.

Designer Bindis make a great gift for young girls and ladies during our religious occasions like Dusehra, or Sravana Puja. 

Hope you like them. Watch out for more.......
