Hey, gorgeous girlies! With the most awaited festival of colours around the corner, we are sure you are excited, and so are we. Worried about dry skin and colour stains? Fret no more! This Holi, we are here to help you enjoy to the fullest with the best holi skincare tips. So this season, you can play with colours and also protect your skin and nails like a pro!
Pre-Holi Care
Embrace Vibrancy: Shield Your Nails
One of the most effective holi skincare tips is to give ample attention to your nails because who likes stained nails, right? Paint the town red with LoveChild by Masaba's Jhil Mil’ Shimmer Nail Enamel which is formulated with Hexanal for long-term nail care and protects them from toxins. Make sure you apply 2-3 coats before stepping out to play Holi.
Protect Your Skin: Sunscreen Is A Must
From childhood, we have been told to apply lots of oil on our body to protect our skin from Holi colours. And rightly so! So, before you go gaga over colours, make sure you moisturise your face well. On this day, one friend who shouldn’t leave your side is your sunscreen. On the sunny day of Holi, colours are not the only things that may affect your skin; harmful UV rays also do a lot of damage. So dab on some sunscreen too!
Guard Your Lips
We tend to forget to protect our lips even though they’re the most delicate parts of our skin. Our I Like To Sugarcoat lip balms with SPF 22 are a must for hydration and sun protection. Enriched with almond oil, shea butter & vitamin E, they also add a cute tint to your lippies! So, make sure to prioritise lip care by applying a generous layer of lip balm before heading out. Applying lip balm before playing Holi is a simple yet effective skincare tip to ensure your lips stay protected during the festivities.
Post-Holi Care
After indulging in Holi celebrations, you might feel tired and eager to remove all the harsh colours from your skin. However, it's important to handle your skin with care and gentleness, as vigorous scrubbing can lead to irritation and allow colour particles to penetrate deeply. Follow these post-Holi skin care tips to maintain the health of your skin.
Cleanse Those Colours Off
This Holi get your hands on our Signing Off’ Makeup Remover & Cleansing Balm. Our cleansing balm is designed to effectively dissolve and lift away impurities and will help you remove the Holi pigments. Enriched with Cherry Blossom, which is full of antioxidants, it repairs & smoothens the skin. Use this balm to get rid of all those colourful stains. Massage it in a circular motion and wash it off with lukewarm water, letting you sign off those colours with a sigh of relief!
Give Your Skin Much-Needed Hydration
The vibrant hues of Holi can leave your skin feeling dry, itchy, and irritated. Fight these effects by applying soothing face masks, which can work wonders in boosting your skin's hydration levels. You can also use our 100% Cellulose Aloe Fiber Sheet Mask, which also combats acne and works as a brightening bomb!
For an added soothing effect, spray LoveChild’s Face Mist which gives instant hydration and has antimicrobial properties. It is also enriched with Niacinamide which helps build Keratin to keep the skin firm. Pat gently into the skin and feel your skin breathe again after all those colours with chemicals.
Juicy Lips Check
Deep cleansing and scrubbing while removing Holi colours can strip natural oils from your skin, including your lips, leaving them dry and prone to chapping. Lip balm helps replenish lost moisture and keeps your lips hydrated. So, don’t forget to moisturise those gentle lips with a coat of our Coffee & Cake lip balm that hydrates your lips inside out. After applying our Coffee and Cake lip balm, say yes to soft lips that are yummy & tinted too!
From Colours To Calm: Unwind After a Vibrant Holi Celebration
Holi can be fun, but it can also leave you feeling tired afterwards, especially with the effort required to remove all those vibrant colours. But sit back and relax with our ‘The Rocking Chair’ Anti-anxiety oil, it is enriched with lavender oil, widely known for its calming and relaxing properties. Breathing in the scent of lavender both lessens anxiety and improves mood. It may also help promote sleep and fight insomnia.
That’s a wrap on the skincare tips this Holi. With this pre and post-Holi skincare regime, you're all set to prep your skin for the festivities. This year, bid farewell to worries about post-Holi skincare and immerse yourself fully in the joy of COLOURS!
