Science of Ayurveda
The knowledge of life
The word Ayurveda comes from two Sanskrit words — ‘Ayu’ meaning life and ‘Veda’ meaning knowledge. It is a traditional holistic system with historical roots in the Indian subcontinent, and it inspires the botanicals and philosophy behind our formulations.
The Tridosha Concept
In Ayurvedic tradition, each person's constitution is described through three doshas — Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Each is traditionally associated with different skin and hair characteristics.
Vata · Wind
Traditionally associated with a more delicate constitution, drier scalp and hair, and drier skin.
Pitta · Heat
Traditionally associated with fine hair and fair skin that is more sensitive to the sun.
Kapha · Fluid
Traditionally associated with soft, thick hair and smoother, more oily skin.
