You really can’t boil down Ayurvedic teachings into simple, prescriptive points. The ethos of the teachings is about how complex, nuanced, and multifaceted our bodies are—and thus, how we take care of them is, ultimately, equally intricate. This is also the case with Ayurvedic skin care.

In this episode of Clean Beauty School, we get into the many layers of Holecek’s journey, Ayurvedic beauty philosophies, and how to help balance doshas with daily skin care habits.
