Know your skin
A healthy and fresh skin is a blessing. The skin is the largest organ we have and probably the more we care creams and treatments.
The skin is also the organ most exposed to the environment and may suffer from exposure to the elements, especially the sun. The skin is a complex organ with complex functions. The function of the skin is to protect the body.
Women have thinner skin than men for this reason we crease with ease. The skin has three interconnected layers:
Epidermis
This is the outer layer of skin, which showed the world and expose more. This layer in turn is composed of other sub-layer of mostly cells called keratinocytes. These cells move and eventually reach the outer surface forming a protective barrier layer.
Dermis
This layer is the operational control of the skin. Here are blood vessels, sweat glands, sebaceous glands, nerve endings and collagen and elastin. The dermis nourishes the epidermis. Here begin the mud and redness due to alteration of circulation as when you blush.
