Holi's knocking on our doors, and there's no holding back on the fun – whether it's enjoying thandai, vibing to Bollywood beats, or drenching each other in gulaal. But hey, let's not forget the aftermath of the Holi celebration. Let's face it, nobody wants to end up feeling like a soggy mess or fall prey to bad hygiene blues! Holi might get messy, but that doesn't mean we have to compromise on hygiene.
Before diving into Holi celebrations, let's arm ourselves with some pre and post-holi hacks. It's all about using safe products, ensuring clean surroundings, and taking care of personal hygiene.
So, hold your water balloons and take a moment for some simple tips.
Do Me A Favour, Let’s Play Holi! ( But prep your skin first! )
Before you dive into the colourful chaos of Holi, it's crucial to follow a Holi skincare routine -
- Coat your body and hair with a generous layer of coconut or almond oil to shield against harsh colours, while also making them easier to wash off later.
- While it's advisable to oil your face too, skip it if you have oily or acne-prone skin.
- Opt for full-sleeved clothing to minimize exposure to heat and excessive colours. Tie your hair in a braid or bun to reduce damage.
- Apply a gentle coat of nail polish to safeguard your nails from colour stains.
- Don't forget to moisturize the area around your cuticles with some petroleum jelly or castor oil for added protection.
- Steer clear of heavy makeup to prevent skin irritation. Instead, you can focus on a fresh, natural look that complements the vibrant colours of Holi.
- Prioritize sun protection by slathering on waterproof sunscreen to shield your skin from the sun's rays and the heat of the festivities.
Take these Holi skin care precautions right before you start the fun!
