Holi Colors: Identify Herbal vs. Chemical Colors with These Simple Tips!

• Beware of excessive shine or glitter; natural colors lack sparkle and shine.
• Check the scent: natural colors have mild or no fragrance, avoid strong chemical smells.
• Dissolve in water: pure colors dissolve completely, artificial ones leave residue or turn opaque.
• Rub on hand: natural colors are soft, chemical ones are granular and may cause irritation.
• Avoid dark and neon shades; natural colors are lighter and wash off easily.
