Come on parents, let’s skip the synthetic colors this holi and opt for earth friendly, eco-positive and skin-safe colors. Please remember to apply a coat of coconut oil on to your baby’s skin and hair before you set off to play holi, this forms a protective layer on their skin and helps in getting the colors off easily after the holi party. Dress your children in full-sleeved clothes and glasses, so that the colors or sun do not affect their skin and eyes. Encourage your older children and toddlers to use Pichkaaris instead of throwing water balloons, as they are extremely dangerous.
