Choosing which products
are right for you is easy. Often
times you just need to look at what your skin is
like. If it is dry, Vata skin care is best; for
sensitive or combination skin, Pitta type is optimal;
Oily skin works best with Kapha products. Another thing to
remember is that skin type can change, either with the seasons or
as you grow older. In this case changing the type of
skin care one uses is imperative. Here is a quick skin type
