Wear appropriate clothes

Fabrics like denims and synthetics can stick to your body and may become heavy as well. Therefore, opt for dark colours in cotton. Also make sure that your clothes are covering maximum parts of your body including your head. This will save your scalp where the colours stays for longer than other body parts.

Apply nail polish

Harsh Holi colours are the most difficult to remove from body parts like nails. Applying nail paints (even by males) will give you a protective coat.

Drink lots of water

Since water keeps your hydrated, don’t forget to drink loads of it before you start playing.

Protect your eyes and lips

Many people love applying surprise colours which can turn out to be much more harmful for your eyes than skin. Therefore, strictly avoid wearing eye lenses and also keep your lips protected by applying a lip balm.

Avoid rashes with soothing agents

In case you get rashes or experience irritation on your skin, apply aloe vera gel, rose water or cucumber juice. They will help soothe your skin.

Avoid scrubbing if you have acne

If you are already suffering from a skin problem like acne then avoid scrubbing your face to remove colours. Instead, use a paste of besan (gram flour) and raw milk to gently remove the colours.

NEVER use detergent soaps on skin

Many people scrub their bodies with detergent soaps after playing Holi in order to get rid of the harmful colours desperately. Never think of doing it as it may damage your skin even further. Instead, apply body lotion on your body after taking bath.
