Diwali, also known as the festival of lights, is the perfect occasion to get together with friends and family. Now, after the exhilarating festive mood of the past five days, your body needs some time to reset. Between the festival preparations like cleaning, decorating, hosting a Diwali party, cooking delicious food and going out to meet friends and relatives, it must be a bit tiring. Constant exposure to dust and pollution must have taken a toll on your skin and hair too.
Here are some ways in which you can show your skin and hair ‘gentle loving care’-
to skin-
massage
Massage your face with coconut, almond or olive oil. You can also opt for a facial which will also include a massage and remove the dust from your skin.
release
Facials may include a scrub, however, you can opt for once a week exfoliation at your home. Gentle exfoliation will rid your skin of the build-up of pollutants and dead skin cells and leave you with a clear-cut face.

face sheet and mask
Salon sessions can dig a deep hole in your pocket, so instead of booking a session there, you can opt for DIY face packs and hydrating face sheets to make your skin glow again.
for hair-
oiling
The oil nourishes the hair and protects them from dryness and damage. Persistent exposure to heat, pollution and chemicals as well as sweating can make scalp dry. Applying oil will keep the scalp hydrated.
deep conditioning
Your hair will need deep conditioning after Diwali. You can opt for a deep conditioning spa that includes argan hair oil or avocado. Or you can choose to do this at home by making a face pack with eggs, olive oil, avocado, aloe vera gel, yogurt etc.
protect hair from heat
Don’t style your hair that requires heat treatments like straighteners or curlers. In fact, let your hair air dry instead of using a hair dryer.
Serum
Invest in a rich and nourishing serum after your shampoo and to keep your hair hydrated throughout the day.
Apart from these, make sure you keep yourself hydrated by drinking enough water and other fluids. Also, eat a nutritious diet that is rich in minerals, vitamins, proteins, carbs, iron, etc.
