Colourful Holi is around the corner with full of excitement and lot of masti for all, especially newly married couple. First Holi, after marriage is always memorable for them. They play with toxic-dark colours and pichakaree with water, blast coloured balloons,
But they must smartly prepare themselves to countereffect of harshness on skin, hair, eyes and all.
Here, I am sharing few classic tips and scrub potli to have full fun in this Holi.
Happy and safe Holi my blog readers in advance.
Classic tips
- Use chemical-free colours easily available in the market. Those who want to play wet Holi use flowers, soak them overnight in water and made in to a paste and can play and this trick give glow to face in natural way.
- Apply ample amount of oil such as pure coconut oil, mustard oil on skin and hairs. They act as natural sunscreen against harmful colours.
- Do not rush to spa for hair and skin goodness, facial or bleach after party. Take a gap of at least 2 weeks.
- All colours do not wash off in one go. Be patience and use these home ideas.
- Nails look horrible after celebrations are over, so best way is to apply Vaseline /petroleum jelly near nail area or can keep them short and apply nail paint.
- For eyes, keep rose water/petals with 1 ice water or make rose ice cubes, in case of emergency if colour enters into your eyes. Dip cotton pad in prepared water which give calm and soothing effect, and also drain colour particles from eyes.
- My suggestion for all of you to make these body scrub for use before Holi party hangover. It is impossible to do when colour is dripping from body.
