How's you all ??? All geared up for HOLI next week ??? Well i am so excited for HOLI ♥ it's my fav festival, I just wait holi to come so that i can play with colours, water all day long :)
But what about your hair? What about your Skin? Are they Holi-ready yet?
Here are tips to protect your Hair & Skin from the harmful effects of those colours. You need to begin this ritual much before the festival to truly protect your hair.
Oiling : oil your hair with warm coconut oil, castor oil or olive oil. If you have dandruff add 8-10 drops of lemon in your oil and liberally apply the mixture in your hair. Apply oil all over your body, including hands, feet, and elbows. Do the oiling part at least 20-25 minutes before you start.
Moisturise: Use a generous amount of moisturizer with sunscreen all over your body, especially behind your ears and ear lobes as these are areas one tends to neglect. Make sure that the moisturizer has an SPF as you do not want to catch a tan from the sun! * I use DESI SARSO OIL on body before playing HOLI * it helps to get rid of colours easily
Ponytail: Don't keep your open, make some BUN or Ponytail

Clothing: Wear dark colour-full sleeves cotton clothes. denims would be heavy once you have a bucket full of water splashed on you.
Ensure that the clothes
you choose to wear should cover maximum parts of your body. The best choices would be high-necks or full-sleeves. The rule; the more you cover your body, the higher are the chances of saving your skin from colour harm.

Nail paints: Protect your nails by applying nail polish as this will give you a protective coat.
Water: Drink loads of water before you start playing Holi. This will keep your skin hydrated. Also keep sipping water carefully while playing Holi.
Lips and Eyes: Don't wear lenses. In fact completely avoid wearing lenses or glasses. But if you cannot do without glasses, just be careful while applying colour. Mostly people are interested in applying surprise colours on your face and the edges of your specs might hurt your face. For lips, apply a lip balm generously.
Soothing: Use an aloe vera gel, cucumber juice or at least a rose water bottle handy with you, just in case get some irritation from a colour, these would act as soothing agents.
If you have acne avoid scrubbing your face past Holi. Use a paste of raw milk and besan and gently work on your face to remove the colours.
Use glycerin or aloe vera based soaps. Some people use detergent soaps on their body to remove colour. AVOID such desperate attempts. Apply a body lotion on your body generously after taking bath.
Don't get waxing, threading, facials or skin treatment done at least 3-4 days before Holi.
