Easy Tips for a Colorful Celebration

Holi 2022 is fast approaching, and if you’re like most people, you’re probably looking forward to sharing this joyful Hindu celebration with family and friends. But before you start planning your celebration, it’s important to know how to play safe and healthy Holi. We’ll go over a few suggestions to make your Holi party enjoyable and safe!

Choose natural Colors: Holi is all about color, but that doesn’t mean you should use any old color products. Many store-bought colors contain harmful chemicals that can be dangerous to your health. Instead of using these products, opt for natural colors made from ingredients like turmeric, besan (gram flour), and fruits and vegetables. These natural colors are not only safe for your skin, but they’re also eco-friendly!

Plan ahead: Holi is a fun and festive occasion, but it can also be chaotic. To avoid any stressful situations, it’s important to plan ahead. Make a list of all the people you want to invite to your celebration and send out invitations in advance. Once you have your guest list, start planning the activities you want to do. This will help you stay organized and ensure that everyone has a good time.

Make sure you stay hydrated: Hydration is one of the most essential things to remember when celebrating Holi. To eliminate any pollutants that may be in your system and maintain your skin healthy, drink a lot of water. Drink extra water if you’ll be outside for a long time to avoid dehydration.

Wear sunscreen: Another important tip for celebrating Holi is to wear sunscreen. The sun can be very harsh during this time of year, so it’s important to protect your skin. All exposed areas should be treated with a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.

Wear old, worn-out clothes: One of the best things about celebrating Holi is getting to play with color. But this can also be a bit of a hazard, as it’s easy to get color on your clothes and skin. To avoid ruining your clothes, wear old, worn-out clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. And if you do happen to get color on your skin, be sure to wash it off as soon as possible.

Be careful with your face: One of the most fun parts of Holi is being covered in color, but it’s not so fun when that color gets in your eyes, nose, or mouth. To avoid this, ask your friends to go easy on you when they’re applying color. And if you do get color in your eyes, be sure to rinse them out immediately with clean water.
Avoid gulal if you have skin allergies: If you have skin allergies, it’s best to avoid gulal (colored powder) altogether. Gulal can contain harsh chemicals that can cause an allergic reaction. Be sure to test gulal on a small patch of skin first to make sure you aren’t allergic.

Celebrate responsibly: Holi is a time to let loose and have fun, but it’s important to do so responsibly. Excessive alcohol consumption may result in accidents. And be sure to clean up any color that you use so that it doesn’t end up in the environment.

Holi is a great time to celebrate with friends and family, but it’s important to do so safely and responsibly. You can ensure that your Holi celebration can be fun and safe by following these tips!

Happy Holi! 🙂
