Taking care of your skin during Holi


·        

·        If a day before Holi, mustard oil is applied on body, especially on face,hands and legs then the color can be removed from the skin easily. Additionally this oil should also be applied on hairs. By this, you can protect your hairs from damage caused by colors. Hair containing oil, store less color comparatively.
·        If anyone doesn't like applying oil, then instead a lotion can also be used. After this, you can apply as much color you want, since, no strong color will be able to stay on your skin.
·        Holi should never be played with chemical colors. For this, you can before hand tel your friend that colors containing chemical are not safe for skin.
·        To protect your skin from the adverse effect of colors, you can apply sunscreen lotion on your body. This can possibly decrease the chemical effect of color.
·        While playing Holi you should apply this near your eyes and even on your eye lashes. This can protect your eyes from the harmful effect of colors.
·        After washing color with water, put some rose water in your eye and take rest. This will relax them
·        If while playing holi, some dry color gets into your eyes then rinse it with clean water. On the day of Holi washing your eyes, time and again with water is adviseble. But, do remember not to rub your eyes, this may cause irritation in your eyes.
