Below is an easy-reference guide that you can use to quickly identify which Maruva Naturals variation of this product is right for your facial skin. Our formulations marry ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with potent African and Indian botanicals, ensuring that each product supports your Dosha. Use this guide to select the perfect formulation that aligns with your Dosha’s elemental traits.

Kapha (Earth & Water): Kapha represents stability, moisture, and strength—but can lean toward heaviness and sluggishness. Kapha products invigorate and detoxify while gently balancing and stimulating the skin without adding oiliness.

Select this product if you identify with the below traits of Kapha hair:

  • Thick & Strong: Kapha hair is naturally thick, luscious, and strong, with an inherent resilience that gives it a healthy and vibrant appearance.
  • Naturally Oily: The scalp and hair tend to produce more natural oils, which can make the hair shiny and well-moisturised but may also lead to greasiness or a feeling of heaviness.
  • Prone to Build-Up: Due to the natural oiliness, Kapha hair can experience build-up from oils and product residue, requiring regular cleansing to maintain freshness and balance.
  • Slow Growth but Dense: While the growth rate may be steady, the density and fullness of Kapha hair are remarkable, making it appear voluminous and robust.
  • Signs to Watch For:
    • Excess oiliness;
    • Product build-up;
    • Flatness or lack of bounce;
    • Dullness despite oiliness;
    • Pore congestion on the scalp.
