Garba Night Prep: Sweat-Proof Skin and Hair for Navratri

Hours of dancing in warm clothes means sweat and melting makeup. A short prep keeps you comfortable.

Before you leave

• Cleanse and apply a light moisturiser. Skip heavy creams.
• Tie hair in a braid or a low bun to keep it off your neck.
• A drop of Rosemary Hair Serum controls flyaways.

During the night

Carry water, a small towel and blotting paper. Wipe sweat instead of rubbing.

After you get home

1. Remove makeup and cleanse.
2. Rinse sweat from your hair line.
3. Soak tired feet in warm water with Epsom Salt. See our foot soak guide.

Browse face care and hair serum.
