Understanding combination skin
When we say combination skin, we’re talking about those skin types which go dry and flaky by winter yet come summer, your T-zone is a greasy mess. Combination skin is when parts of your skin have an overproduction of sebum or skin oils, giving rise to clogged pores and blackheads in certain areas. Mostly driven by genetic factors and your skin dosha, these are aggravated by hormonal changes and weather.
When pitta skin type is in a balanced state(ideal), it is sensitive yet clear and radiates warm colors.
An imbalance of pitta dosha results in exaggerated oil production in areas leading to acne, eczema, inflammation etc.
