How to glow your skin naturally
Your skin is your body's largest and fastest-growing organ. Skin is
your body's coat. It protects you. It helps you stay warm when it's
cold, and cool when it's hot.
Your skin keeps all your insides in, from
your heart and lungs to your blood and muscles. And unless it's cut or
damaged, it keeps stuff out, including germs and water. You also feel
things through the nerves in your skin.
