For Ayurveda, traditional Indian medicine, nothing has the same measure for two people, everything happens according to individual characteristics. Ayurvedic medicine is, above all, a tool of self-knowledge, so that everything can be optimized according to its physical and psychological type. The archetypes proposed by ayurveda are the doshas: vata, pitta and kapha. Knowing what your dosha is is the first step to using the holistic and plural approach of Ayurvedic medicine. These three profiles are the combinations of the five elements of the universe. Vata: air and ether Pitta: fire and water Kapha: earth and water. The ayurvedic skin type of a person, therefore, can be Vata, Pitta or Kapha, or sometimes a combination of two of these doshas. In addition, a person can be born with a certain type of skin, but over time this can change because of external factors such as climate, diet, lifestyle or environmental pollution. Such "imbalances" should also be taken into account in choosing a skin care program and this should be done by means of a detailed study of your dosha with a qualified professional. But in addition to the professional guidelines, it is possible, yes, to take some care that are worth for any type of skin.
