Holi is all about fun and colours, but chemical-based 'rang' can really harm your skin. Sometimes, the colours are so stubborn they don't come off for days. That's why it's super important to prep your skin with a protective layer before you step out to play. Here are 4 simple hacks to make sure colours don't stick and your skin stays safe.

Just 20-30 minutes before you start playing Holi, properly apply coconut oil on your face, neck, hands, and feet. The oil creates a natural protective layer on your skin, so the colour doesn't seep in directly. This makes it much easier to wash off the 'rang' later. If you want, you can also use mustard oil (sarson ka tel), but be careful as it doesn't suit everyone's skin.

If you have sensitive skin, applying aloe vera gel is a great idea. It keeps your skin hydrated and prevents any kind of irritation or burning. You can even apply a light layer of aloe vera over the oil. You can either buy aloe vera gel from the market or just scoop it out fresh from a plant at home.

Most of us play Holi during the day, so you must apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or more. This will protect you from tanning and sunburn. It also helps by not letting the colour set on your skin.

If your skin is on the drier side, first apply a good moisturiser or cold cream. This will keep your skin soft and stop the colour from going too deep. Also, to prevent colour from getting inside your nails, apply a coat of nail polish before playing. Don't forget to oil your hair! And remember, don't take a hot water bath after playing, and avoid scrubbing your face too hard.

On Holi, try to play with organic colours or even flowers. Some people use 'pakka' or chemical-based colours on the face, which can seriously damage your skin. For some, it can ruin their face completely. So, don't let anyone put such colours on you, and you shouldn't use them on others either.
