🧬 Your Skin 101: A Primer

Your skin isn’t just a surface — it’s a living, breathing organ, the largest one you have!

🌿 The Three Main Layers

• Epidermis: the outermost barrier, home to dead skin cells, lipids, and your microbiome.
• Dermis: the middle layer, packed with collagen, elastin, blood vessels, and nerve endings.
• Hypodermis (subcutaneous tissue): the fatty bottom layer that cushions and insulates.

Each layer has a role — protecting you, regulating temperature, sensing touch, and even helping your immune system.

🧪 Fun Fact

Your skin renews itself roughly every 28 days —
that’s why consistent care matters!
