Holi, the festival of colours, is all about laughter, music, and vibrant celebrations that fill the air with joy. But while the festivities leave behind cherished memories, they can also take a toll on the skin leaving it dry, irritated, or stained with stubborn colours. For television actors, whose skin is always in the spotlight, taking care of it is more than a routine; it is essential. From pre-Holi protective rituals to post-celebration recovery, &TV actors share their go-to skincare tips to enjoy the festival without compromising their glow. Akshaya Naik (Playing Eena sharma in the upcoming show Hey Bhagwaan – Kitna Badal Gaya Insaan), Priyamvada Kant (Latika in Gharwali Pedwali), Geetanjali Mishra (Rajesh in Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Vidisha Srivastava (Anita Bhabi in Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai). Akshaya Naik, who will be seen as Eena Sharma in &TV’s upcoming show Hey Bhagwaan – Kitna Badal Gaya Insaan, shares, “Holi can get messy, but I love it! My ritual starts a few days before the festival I moisturize intensely and do a nourishing hair mask. On the day itself, I cover my skin with coconut oil, which really helps in preventing colours from sticking. Post-Holi, I go for a gentle cleansing routine and apply a hydrating face cream immediately. Drinking lots of water and fresh juices is my secret to keeping the skin radiant from within. A little preparation goes a long way you enjoy Holi freely without worrying about skin issues!”
Priyamvada Kant, who plays Latika in Gharwali Pedwali, shares, “Holi is one of my favourite festivals! The energy, the colours, the celebrations everything feels magical. But I make sure to prep my skin well. I apply a generous layer of almond oil on my face, hands, and hair to create a protective barrier. Sunscreen is a must, no excuses! During celebrations, I stick to organic colours as much as possible. After all the fun, I gently cleanse my skin, follow up with a cooling aloe vera mask, and hydrate myself with plenty of water. I also swear by a simple rose water and yogurt pack to bring back my natural glow it feels like a mini spa treatment at home!” Geetanjali Mishra, playing Rajesh in Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, adds, “Holi is all about fun, but I never compromise on skincare. I start with a protective layer of olive oil and make sure my hair is oiled too. Organic colours are a must they are gentler and easier to wash off. Once the celebrations are over, I do a soothing face cleanse and follow it up with a cooling cucumber mask. Hydration is key, so I drink plenty of water and herbal teas. A quick honey and curd pack helps restore softness and glow. These simple steps help me enjoy the festival to the fullest!” Vidisha Srivastava, who plays Anita Bhabhi in Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai 2.0, shares, “Holi is my favourite time to let loose, but I am careful with my skin. I prep by exfoliating gently a day before and applying a protective layer of almond oil on my face and hands. After the fun, I cleanse my skin thoroughly and follow it with a hydrating mask and moisturizer. Drinking coconut water and keeping my body hydrated really helps. I also indulge in a little DIY turmeric and yogurt pack to brighten my skin. With these tips, I can celebrate Holi without worrying about dull or irritated skin!”
