In Ayurvedic Science, a Dosha is the inherent intelligence of the body that decides the innermost nature of every individual. It is the special blend of qualities that makes each of us unique. The 3 Doshas are: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Each individual constitutes a balance of these 3 energies.
Ayurveda equates Vata's beauty to the wind
Vata’s skin is thin and fine-pored all over, and ever so slightly cool and dry.
The features are often refined and delicate and, cheekbones maybe high.
Vata looks serene in warm pastels and dazzling in jade or emerald and gold.
Vata is quick in passion and attachment.
There is nothing as unsettling to Vata's sensibilities as a harsh voice or crass language, and nothing so soothing and grounding as a soft touch, or the sweet scent of Jasmine or Rose.
According to Ayurveda, Vata personalities are generally slim and can eat whatever they want without putting on weight. Vata skin is Normal to Dry while hair trends to be prone to dryness and frizziness, hence needs to be conditioned and nourished regularly.
Vata represents the Air element. With lively, adaptable and endearing qualities, Vata tends to be friendly and imaginative. Like the wind, this personality carries with it a creative energy. Delicate florals or sparkling, spiced citrus accords are Vata’s perfect fragrance match.
