Holi is a festival of joy, colour, and togetherness. However, dermatology clinics observe an increase in the number of patients with rashes, itching, eye irritation, and skin infections caused by artificial colors every year following the festival. This is because most of the Holi colors available in the market are made of industrial dyes, heavy metals, mica, and chemical pigments, which are not suitable for the skin. Individuals with sensitive skin, eczema, or acne are more vulnerable to face issues due to allergic reactions.
