Pre Holi Skin Care Tips

To save your skin from harsh colours, apply sunscreen or oil for at least 30 minutes before stepping out to enjoy the festival. This would create a barrier between skin and colour. Further, remember to apply face oil and sunscreen on the ears, neck, and other exposed parts of the body so that the colours will easily be washable. Additionally, our clothes can also act as a barrier. Avoid wearing thin fabric like a cotton tee, then chances are that the colour may seep underneath as well. It is therefore advisable to wear comparatively thick fabrics and go for full sleeves to ensure our bare skin gets the least (chemical-loaded) colour exposure. Holi 2022 Food Recipes: From Bhaang Laddoos to Puran Poli, 5 Easy Drool-Worthy Delicacies That Will Be a Great Treat for Your Special Ones (Watch Videos).

A Pro Tip For Nail Protection

Colours often get stuck in and on our nails, failing to wash away days after the festival. To not let colours get stuck to your nails for days, one can apply clear-coated nail polish. Further, a pro-tip is to apply the polish to the skin around your nails so that no colour seeps or gets stuck around your nails. Oil can be applied to our hair, to protect them from getting damaged. The best oils one can use are – coconut, mustard, or olive. Holi 2022 Songs Playlist: Top Five Bollywood Songs From 50s to 2020s That Will Add A Musical Touch To Your Celebration (Watch Videos).
