Interpreting your scores:

Some people have a single predominant dosha, a few are tridoshic-with equal proportions of the three doshas, but most have combination constitutions, with two doshas predominant.

If have a predominant number of A responses, you are mainly Vata
If you have a predominant number of B responses, you are mainly Pitta
If you have a predominant number of C responses, you are mainly Kapha

If you have fairly equal numbers of all three, you are samadoshic or tridoshic

If you have two sets of responses fairly equal and the third lower, you are a combination dosha type. For example, if you have the maximum number of A responses, with C a close second, and minimal B responses, you have a Vata-Kapha constitution.

Choosing Products:
If you have a single dosha predominant, choose the skin care products indicated for that dosha. If you have a combination constitution, browse our skin solutions section to see what your needs for balance are at this time, and choose your regimen accordingly. For example, if you are a Vata-Kapha, you could have dry skin in the winter and oily skin in the summer, and you would therefore pick a season-based skin care routine. If you are a Pitta-Vata, you could have sensitive skin that tends towards being dry, and you would choose gentle, nourishing products that restore moisture and cleanse skin without irritating it.
