1. To protect your face and body apply coconut oil or rich moisturizing cream before you step out to play Holi..
2. Avoid bleaching, waxing, threading or chemical peels prior to playing Holi as they could make the skin more sensitive to the colours or sun

4. Don't forget to apply a generous amount of sunscreen at least SPF 40 or 50 on your face as well as body. Use a waterproof sunscreen lotion or spray to prevent sun damage
