The real fun of Holi is in having fun with colors, but some people are a little afraid of colors. The reason is that the color may remain on the skin for a long time, spots may appear on the face or hair, or the skin and hair may get damaged. If you are also among those people who run away from colors, then there is no need to panic, in such a situation, today let us tell you some easy and effective tips, with the help of which you can play Holi without any worries.

Easy ways to clean colors quickly after playing Holi

1. Protection layer before playing Holi – Before playing Holi, apply oil thoroughly on the entire face, hands and body. The oil forms a protective layer on the skin, due to which the color does not penetrate directly into the skin. If possible, apply oil to your hair also. This will prevent the color from sticking to the hair and will be easy to wash. This is the easiest and most effective way to remove the color easily after playing Holi and without harming the skin.

2. Curd-lemon recipe after Holi – If the color remains after playing Holi, then the mixture of curd and lemon is the best solution. Take curd in a bowl and add some lemon juice to it, beat it well and apply it gently on the face and body, wash with cold water after 5-10 minutes. Curd gives coolness and moisture to the skin. Lemon lightens the spots and blemishes. After this apply face wash or cream, the skin will look clean and glowing. If the head is coloured, apply curd directly to the roots and leave it for a while and then wash with a mild shampoo. The color will come out easily and the hair will remain soft.

3. Desi Ubtan with gram flour and turmeric – If the color has firmly settled on the face, then rubbing is the most effective solution. First of all, apply coconut oil or mustard oil and massage lightly. Apply oil and leave it for 10 minutes. Now make the paste. Prepare a paste by mixing 3 spoons gram flour, half spoon turmeric, half spoon lemon juice. Apply the paste on face and hands and leave it for some time, then rub lightly with lemon peel and wash with cold water. If the color still remains, apply the paste again.

4. Gram flour and oil paste – If you do not want to use lemon peel, then this method is also easy and effective. Mix raw milk, mustard oil and turmeric in gram flour. Apply it on the face and let it dry. When the boil dries, clean it by rubbing gently. The color comes off easily, tanning also goes away.
