Vata Skincare Products 

Vata skin is very dry, rough and thin skin. Any amount of body lotion, moisturizer on their skin will never be enough for them. Herbal oil like Nalpamaradi Thailam (esp with Tila Thaila base) is an excellent skin hydration for them. Doing a self-massage with this oil twice a day and taking a bath in lukewarm water with a liquid body wash or besan gram flour will give a plumpy and even-tone complexion. Avoid coarse powders or dry face mask on your skin. 

  • Thick, oily and heavy moisturizers in winter
  • Thick gels in summer
  • Prefer gel based cleanser, shower gels or oil soaps for body wash
  • Always include herbal oils in your skincare routine
  • Bathe in slight lukewarm water
  • Use frozen lip moisturizers
  • Drink water, fresh juices and smoothies
