So, wear clothes that will cover a larger portion of your body. Wear kurta or full sleeves top with leggings or old denims, if possible. Mostly people use colours on the upper part of the body, so,\u00a0you should definitely try to opt for clothing whih protects your torso and arms. Choose cotton as your preferred material.<\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>Use protective lotion.<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>The next thing is to apply\u00a0lotion or any such protective cream, before letting yourself be in colours. Also, most of the time you will be outside in the sunlight, so, do not forget to use waterproof sunscreen as it will keep your skin protected from such UV rays.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paisawapas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/protect-your-skin-on-this-holi.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3378 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paisawapas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/protect-your-skin-on-this-holi.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"623\" height=\"414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.paisawapas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/protect-your-skin-on-this-holi.jpg 725w, https:\/\/www.paisawapas.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/protect-your-skin-on-this-holi-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 623px) 100vw, 623px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>Drench\u00a0yourself with oil\/cream.<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>This is an old home remedy, don&#8217;t we all remember ours mothers telling us\u00a0to apply oil or cold cream before playing Holi. This will protect your skin from dryness as well as your hair, because the oil particles won\u2019t allow colour to deposit and set down at the bottom of the skin and scalp.<\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>Keep yourself hydrated.<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Water is always the best solution for both hair and skin as your body needs water time to time. When it comes to festivals like Holi, it\u2019s an essential thing to keep yourself hydrated. Keep the dryness away and drink water or non-aerated drinks like coconut water and fruit juices.
