Body

The skin is the largest organ of your body and performs many very important functions. Most importantly, it acts as a protective barrier between your internal organs and the external environment. It prevents germs from entering the body and blocks pollutants and chemicals from entering. In addition, the skin enables us to regulate our body temperature and to feel the sensations of touch and pain. There are many factors, both external and internal, that affect your skin - genetics, ageing, hormones and general health. Remember that many aspects are within your control, so pay special attention to proper skin care, diet, hydration, and optimal sleep.
