One of the most fun and vibrant Indian festivals, Holi, is almost here! While Holi brings happiness and excitement, loading up on colours and exposure to the sun can also damage your skin and hair.
But not to worry! We will not let the fear of skin and hair damage take the fun out of your Holi celebrations.
In this blog, we’ve listed a few pre & post Holi care tips to protect your skin and hair as you celebrate the festival of colours.

Here are a few pre Holi beauty tips for skin care and hair care:
Pre Holi Skin Care Tips
Want to enjoy Holi without worrying about skin damage? Follow these pre Holi care tips for a skin-friendly Holi:
-
Oil to your rescue!
Massaging your body and face with oil keeps your skin hydrated and creates a protective barrier between your skin and colours.
You can use Aroma Magic Organic Almond Oil for your face and Coconut Oil for the rest of your body.
Pro tip: Apply oil on your earlobes and behind the ears also.
-
Don’t forget your nails
Cut your nails short to reduce the risk of colours settling down under them. Rub some coconut oil on your nails and cuticles. You can also apply a thick coating of nail paint to prevent them from getting stained.
-
Sunscreen is a must #SPFyourBFF
This is one of the most important pre Holi skin care tips!
Playing Holi in the sun is fun, but it can also cause tanning and pigmentation. Wear an all-mineral sunscreen to protect your skin from sun damage.

Wear full-sleeved clothes
Wearing full-sleeved tops and full-length bottoms will protect your skin by limiting exposure to sun and colours.

Cover Your Hair
If you have short hair, cover your head with a scarf or bandana to give some extra protection to your hair. And if you have long hair, braid or tie it up in a bun before covering your head.
