Introducing Pitta Collection from DoshaCare - Customized Ayurvedic Skincare
Published: 2011-07-31 by Ines MarkovicAccording to the centuries-old Indian Ayurvedic philosophy, the hottest part of the summer and early fall represents the fire element. Excessive fire in the environment can cause us to become imbalanced and is described by Ayurveda as the Pitta Dosha. At this time of year when there is a predominance of Pitta we can all experience some skin sensitivity and be prone to rosacea or acne.
The innovative formulations of the DoshaCare Customized Ayurvedic Skincare combine Ayurvedic philosophy with the best of Western technology to produce an effective and powerful hybrid. DoshaCare educates consumers on their primary and secondary Doshas, allowing them to select the proper skincare regimen to achieve balance for their specific mental and physical characteristics.
Each DoshaCare product, made up of 98 percent natural and organic ingredients, comes from socially and environmentally sustainable sources and the brand has been certified as members of the Green Business Network. The packaging yields to the highest standards of environmental responsibility, with post consumer recycled paper, soy ink and some of the packaging made with up to 70 percent recycled materials.

ABOUT AYURVEDA:
Ayurveda is a 5000-year old natural healing system that originates in the ancient traditions of India and is now considered one of the leading forms of holistic medicine available in the west. According to Ayurvedic tradition, each of us inherits a unique mix of three mind/body constitution that affect our specific mental and physical characteristics. When we find ourselves emotionally or physically out of balance, most like we have made a departure from daily rituals that provide nourishment to our mind and body. The three constitutions, Vata, Pitta and Kapha, are called “Dosha’s”. Most of us have one or two doshas which are most lively in our nature, with the remaining ones less significant.
