KAPHA VATA SKINCARE
Kapha-Vata skin type combines the cold and rough qualities of Vata with the dense, oily qualities of Kapha.
This creates a complexion that is dry in some areas (like the cheeks) but oily, thick, or prone to clogged pores and blackheads in others (like the T-zone).

How it Differs from Single Dosha Types

In Ayurveda, the body’s energy is governed by three primary forces (doshas): Vata (air/space), Pitta (fire/water), and Kapha (earth/water).

• Vata Skin: Entirely dry, rough, thin, and prone to early wrinkles. It lacks both oil and water.

• Pitta Skin: Sensitive, warm, and easily inflamed. It is prone to redness, acne, and freckles.

• Kapha Skin: Consistently oily, thick, soft, and cool. It is prone to enlarged pores and cysts.

• Kapha-Vata Skin: A combination of two. It shifts between Vata’s dry flakiness and Kapha’s oily buildup. Unlike pure Kapha, which is oily all over, or pure Vata, which is universally dry, this combination skin struggles with localized imbalances, such as dry cheeks with an oily forehead or nose.

How to Treat Kapha-Vata Skin

Treating this skin type means calming Vata with warmth and hydration while managing Kapha with light, oil-free ingredients.

1. Have More Than 1 Cleanser
Use water-soluble oil + aloe based Kapha cleanser every night to remove debris without stripping moisture.
For an oily T zone, use our activated charcoal cleanser.

2. Use a Dynamic Exfoliator Instead of an Abradent Exfoliator
To keep Kapha clear, exfoliate 2X per week, at bedtime: perform a bi-phase (2 step) cleanse with the Ayurvedic AHA Fruit Cell Extract cleanser followed by the oil cleanse (either Triphala Tulsi Oil or Clary XO). The glycolic acids reach deeply into the pores where comedones proliferate, and render them unviable.

3. Moisturize Wisely
Use light, astringent herb infused creams and serum.
We offer the Element Protectant cream in our BALANCE kit for it’s barrier fortifying and oil balancing capabilities.
Alternatively, the CLARITY kit comes with Into the Light, a non-oily pore breathing cream for Kapha tendencies.

COMPANY INFORMATION

Solavedi Organics Skincare products are made fresh, in small batches, by hand, by Licensed Esthetician, Ayurvedic Practitioner and Ayurvedic Herbal Cosmetics Formulist Carollanne Crichton in rural Monroe, Maine USA (mid Coast).

We are passionate about sharing the education behind each protocol and ingredient.
Whether you are an individual or an esthetician, we are here to help you learn about the many Ayurvedic constitutional expressive personalities, both in harmony as well as under stress - so that you can resolve any ongoing concerns

Expected shelf life of the skincare collections is between 18 and 24 months from  when you receive it from us and is clearly marked on the product label.
The Dosha Skincare Collections are intended to be small trials of each designated protocol so that you can see how it works with your skin. Also, each protocol collection of 6 - 7 products is in small, but ample enough sizes to facilitate a noticeable shift in your current condition (Each .5 ounce bottle with daily use, typically lasts 2 - 3 weeks) . We envision you phasing out of 1 protocol and into another in some cases.

The other great thing about trying the small size first is that it allows you to buy the full size of only those products you are certain work well for you.
