Holi, the festival of colors, is just around the corner, and while it's a fun and joyful celebration, it can wreak havoc on your skin and hair. The colors used during Holi contain harmful chemicals that can cause skin irritation, dryness, and hair damage. Here are five pre-Holi tips for skin and hair care to ensure you enjoy the festival without any worries.

1. OIL YOUR HAIR: Applying oil to your hair before stepping out for Holi will create a protective layer that will prevent the colors from seeping into your hair shafts. Coconut, olive, or mustard oil are excellent choices as they nourish and hydrate the hair.

2. MOISTURIZE YOUR SKIN: Applying a moisturizer to your skin before playing Holi will create a barrier that will protect your skin from harmful colors. Choose a moisturizer that is lightweight, non-greasy, and has SPF for added protection.

3. WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: Covering your body with clothes that fully cover your arms and legs will protect your skin from harmful colors. Wearing long-sleeved shirts, pants, and a hat will protect your skin and keep you cool in the sun.

4. STAY HYDRATED: Drinking plenty of water before and during Holi will keep your skin and hair hydrated, preventing dryness and damage caused by the colors.

5. REMOVE COLORS CAREFULLY: After playing Holi, remove the stains carefully without rubbing or scrubbing your skin or hair. Use a gentle cleanser or shampoo and conditioner formulated for post-Holi care.

In conclusion, following these five pre-Holi skin and hair care tips will help you enjoy the festival without any worries. Remember to take care of your skin and hair before and after playing Holi to ensure that you maintain healthy, glowing skin and hair throughout the year. 

May your skin glow with happiness and your beauty shine brighter than the colors of Holi. Happy Holi from Derma Puritys!
