SUMMARY
Holi 2025: Made from natural substances, natural or organic colours don’t cause any harm to the environment, skin, or health. Here are 6 reasons why organic colours are better than normal colours:
1 / 7For Holi celebrations, natural or organic colours have traditionally been the most popular. Made from natural substances, they don’t cause any harm to the environment, skin, or health. They are primarily composed of dried leaves, fruits, and flowers. A wide variety of edible-grade materials are used to produce various colours. Red, for example, can be naturally produced from the petals of rose and maize flowers. Natural or organic colours break down more easily than synthetic ones, leaving no toxins behind on land or in waterways. This guarantees more eco-friendly and clean Holi celebrations while protecting fragile ecosystems. Here are 6 reasons why organic colours are better than normal colours:
2 / 71. Natural and Chemical-free | Herbs, flowers, edible materials, and fruit and vegetable extracts are among the natural elements used to make organic Holi colours. They are thus devoid of artificial dyes and dangerous chemicals, helping you enjoy a safe and chemical-free Holi.
3 / 72. Animal-Friendly | Playing with harmful chemical-based colours harms the animals that come into contact with us because their skin and coats are significantly more sensitive than ours. Thus, using organic colours for Holi guarantees no animals are hurt during the celebration. (Image: Reuters)

7 / 76. Non-toxic and Environmentally Friendly| Organic Holi colours and herbal gulaals are environment-friendly and leave no toxic residues, compared to synthetic colours that contain dangerous chemicals and heavy metals. They are biodegradable and non-toxic and decompose naturally without endangering aquatic life or the environment. Thus, this Holi 2025, embrace the rich colours of nature and celebrate responsibly by using eco-friendly colours. (Image: PTI)
