The Kapha dosha is associated with qualities such as heaviness, density, and oiliness. Balanced Kapha dosha promotes stability, strength, and a natural lubrication to the body, including the skin. An imbalance of Kapha can lead to oiliness, clogged pores, blackheads, and a dull complexion. Kapha skin types may also be prone to water retention, leading to puffiness or swelling.
To address imbalances in Kapha skin, Ayurvedic skincare recommends using gentle and stimulating ingredients that promote detoxification and rejuvenation. This can include the use of essential oils known for their purifying properties, exfoliating ingredients to remove excess oil and impurities, and products that provide a light and non-greasy hydration.

An imbalance of Vata can lead to dryness and persistent dehydration, roughness, flakiness, and a lack of moisture in the skin. It may also contribute to fine lines, wrinkles, premature aging, thinner skin and a dull complexion. Vata skin types may experience sensitivity and may be more prone to imbalances during colder seasons.
