Holi is here- the festival that paints our world in joy, laughter, and vibrant hues. But hidden in those colourful powders and sprays are harsh chemicals that can turn your skin dry, itchy, or even trigger allergies. Lead, mercury, and synthetic dyes in cheap colours don’t just stain your clothes; they strip your skin’s natural glow. This year, let’s play smart with these dos and don'ts of Holi! Embrace tips for skin rooted in Ayurveda, the ancient science of holistic wellness. With Ayurvedic Sutra, your skin stays protected, nourished, and radiant through every splash of colour. Ready to celebrate without compromise? Let’s dive in!
Dos for a Healthy Glow Before Playing Holi
Moisturize with Ayurvedic Oils
Your skin’s first line of defence? A rich layer of Ayurvedic oils. Think coconut, almond, or sesame oil- these natural heroes lock in moisture and create a barrier against colours. These ingredients don’t just shield your skin; they repair and rejuvenate it, leaving you with a soft, supple base. Slather it on elbows, knees, and cheeks- areas that dry out fast- and let the oils work their magic.
Use a Natural Sunscreen
Sun and colours cause a double trouble. Protect your skin with Ayurvedic Sunscreen like Ojas Sutra Day Cream. This lightweight gem blends SPF 30 with cooling neem, brightening lemon, and Lodhra bark to fight UV damage and pollution. The Elaichi and Eladi oil in it keep your skin dewy all day, making it perfect for professionals juggling Holi fun and work. No greasy residue, just a smooth canvas for makeup or a fresh-faced glow.
Use Chemical Free Holi Colours
Don't use any store-bought colours loaded with toxins. Instead go homemade! Mix turmeric with water for sunshine-yellow, or boil beetroot for a bold magenta. Do you want to make dry colours? Blend rice flour with hibiscus powder or henna. These chemical-free Holi colours are gentle, eco-friendly, and wash off easily.
Hydrate Well
Water is your skin’s best friend. Sip on coconut water, herbal teas, or infused water with mint and cucumber to keep your skin plump and resilient. Hydrated skin resists colour absorption and bounces back faster after the festivities. Pair this with Ayurvedic Sutra’s nourishing creams to maintain that inner glow.
Don’ts to Avoid Skin Damage Before Holi
Don’t Skip a Protective Layer
One of the most important Holi tips for skin is to never step out bare-skinned! A thick coat of oil or Ojas Sutra Day Cream acts like armour against colours. Focus on dry patches like elbows and knees. This simple step makes washing off colours a breeze and keeps irritation at bay.
Avoid Using Harsh Scrubs Before Holi
Scrubbing right before Holi? Big mistake! It strips natural oils, leaving your skin raw and vulnerable. Post-celebration, gently revive your skin with Nava Sutra Face Scrub. Packed with Kumkumadi Oil and walnut granules, it buffs away dirt without over-drying, leaving your face baby-soft.
Avoid Chemical-Based Products
Skip alcohol-based cleansers or heavy makeup- they clog pores and worsen irritation. After Holi, cleanse with Ayurvedic Sutra’s neem-tulsi face wash. Our Ayurvedic Skincare Products are free from harsh chemicals, so your skin stays calm, balanced, and happy.
