Remove Stubborn Holi Colors – The real fun of playing Holi lies in the water and permanent colors, but the real ‘game’ begins the next day when it becomes difficult to recognize your face in the mirror. The skin turns red from the constant rubbing of soap, but the color remains intact. If you too are facing this concern, these hacks going viral on the internet may be useful:
The Magic of Petroleum Jelly
Vaseline or petroleum jelly is found in almost every Indian household. To remove stubborn color, apply a generous amount of jelly to the face and massage gently. This loosens the color from the skin, making it easier to wipe it off.
Coconut Oil and Gram Flour Scrub (Best for Glow)
This remedy is the safest and most effective. First, massage your face with coconut oil. Now, make a paste of gram flour, turmeric, and a little yogurt and use it as a scrub. This will not only remove the color but also soothe dryness that may occur after Holi.
Viral Eno and Shampoo Hack (Just for Hands!)
Eno packs are all the rage on social media these days. If your palms or nails have become darkly stained, mix a little Eno and lemon with a little shampoo and scrub. The color will lighten immediately.
Mustard Oil and Face Wash
If your skin isn’t oily, add two drops of mustard oil to your face wash and wash. The oil helps remove the color particles from your skin.
