“In the West, there are celebrated one-size-fits-all ingredients. With Ayurveda, there’s an emphasis on exploring what works for you. Ayurveda is a deeply personal science that celebrates your individuality,” says Ayurvedic beauty expert Shrankhla Holecek, founder of Uma Oils. In this episode of Clean Beauty School school, mindbodygreen beauty director and host Alexandra Engler chats with Holecek about the core principles of Ayurvedic beauty, skin care tips based on doshas, and how to find balance. Plus, her all-time favorite oils.
