Your skin
The skin is the largest organ in the human body and fulfils numerous important functions. It consists of three main layers: the epidermis (epidermis), the dermis (dermis) and the subcutis (subcutis). Their most important properties are protection, temperature regulation, sensory perception and moisture retention. The skin serves as a barrier against external influences such as pathogens, UV rays and mechanical stimuli. It also supports the body's heat balance by secreting sweat or regulating blood circulation. Through numerous nerve endings, it enables the feeling of touch, pain and temperatures.
Regular care of the skin is essential to maintain its protective function and elasticity. External factors such as cold, heat, dry air or environmental pollution can dry out and damage the skin. Without adequate care, it loses moisture, becomes brittle and more susceptible to irritation, cracks or infections. In addition, good skin care helps to slow down the aging process and maintain a healthy, radiant appearance.
Cosmetic products play a crucial role in the care and protection of the skin. High-quality creams and lotions, enriched with nourishing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and natural oils, help to strengthen the skin barrier and retain moisture. Products with special formulations can specifically address the different needs of the skin – whether it is to soothe sensitive skin, fight impurities or protect against environmental influences.
