There are six main functions that our fabulous skin does! The skin's functions are protection, sensation, heat regulation, excretion, secretion, and absorption.
PROTECTION: The skin protects us from injuries and bacterial infections.
SENSATION: Our skin has different nerve-endings that can feel pain, heat, cold, touch and pressure.
HEAT REGULATION: The skin helps the body keep a healthy temperature of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
EXCRETION: Perspiration from our glands is excreted through the skin.
SECRETION: Our skin produces oil to keep the skin and hair soft.
ABSORPTION: Our skin can absorb some ingredients to help keep skin soft, plump, and glowing.
