Holi 2025 : A Beauty Guide To Prep Your Skin For The Colourful Festival
Holi is synonymous with colours, splashes, and pure fun! But, let's face it, the harsh chemicals-made pigments, pollution, sun exposure, and dehydration can badly affect your skin. So, how do you keep your skin healthy and glowing throughout the celebration? The answer is simple. You need to do a clever pre-holiday skincare routine that will protect, nourish, and heal your skin in the most effortless way possible!
Guard these unique skincare hacks to forget about skin woes and enjoy Holi wholeheartedly!
The Natural Oil Barriers
Creating a protective shield should be your primary focus to keep your skin safe against harmful colours. Combine natural oils with SPF to maximize protection.
Massage your face and neck and exposed areas like hands, legs, and back with lightweight oils like coconut, jojoba, or argan oil. It will create a thick layer and prevent colours from penetrating your skin.
Once the oil is absorbed, apply a non-sticky and water-resistant sunblock with SPF 50 to ensure your skin won't be affected by UV rays. This combination is effective for moisturization, and prevents hue stains!
Ice Facial For Closing Pores
Open pores on the face allow for colours to seep in and result it breakouts. An ice facial massage prior to the Holi bash will be effective and cooling! Wrap some ice cubes in a soft cloth and press them over your face for 5 minutes.
This easy kitchen hack will shrink pores, minimize inflammation, and form a smooth base for applying any face oil or sunblock cream. The ice is useful for tightening the skin and reducing the chances of colours accumulating into pores and fine lines!
Serum To Shield From Chemicals
Yes, Vitamin C brightens the skin but it is also a super antioxidant that works as a skin barrier against environmental stressors like chemical-filled Holi colours and UV damage. Apply a good quality Vitamin C serum on the face and neck before oiling the skin.
This powerful skincare solution will increase the skin's resilience and reduce the oxidative stress created by powdered colours. What's more? Vitamin C is useful for reducing inflammation and solving uneven skin tone issues too!
Petroleum Jelly For Sensitive Areas
Dry and sensitive areas, such as the area surrounding the eyes, ears, and lips are more likely to retain colour. Before leaving, treat these areas with petroleum jelly to avoid dryness. By producing a protective surface, it serves as a shield to keep the colours from affecting the skin.
Additionally, coat your nails and cuticles with petroleum jelly to avoid dryness and stains. With this trick, you can wash off the colours effortlessly and without leaving any stains behind!
Coconut Water To Hydrate
Well-hydrated skin naturally creates a more strong defence against environmental harm. Add coconut water to your daily routine and up your water consumption the day before Holi. Potassium and electrolytes found in coconut water help your skin stay moisturized and plump by retaining moisture.
Colours are easier to remove from dry areas of the skin when the skin is well-hydrated. Additionally, redness and inflammation are lessened by the natural anti-inflammatory qualities of this natural liquid!
Lip Care With Sugar And Honey
Your lips needs as much care as your face! Colours can stain the lips and make them dry and flaky post the celebrations. An easy-to-make lip scrub will exfoliate the sensitive area i.e. lips and form a smooth surface.
Mix half a teaspoon of sugar and one teaspoon of honey and rub it onto the lips for around 2 minutes and rinse off with water. Apply a lip balm to keep the lips moisturized and plump!
