Kapha skin and aging

Because of the natural amount of oil present and the thickness of the skin, Kapha skin will only show signs of aging much later in life than the other two types.

Bringing balance to Kapha skin

To bring into balance the cold, heavy and oily nature of Kapha, products will be warming, light and sebum-balancing. Ingredients will also have stimulating qualities to help with congestion and sluggishness.

Note about very oily skin

An excessively oily skin is actually dehydrated at a deep level and tries to compensate by overproducing sebum. Kapha products should hydrate the skin deeply while balancing sebum production.
