Ask any of your girlfriends and there is high possibility that flawless skin would be one of the desired beauty wish list. Did you know that the skin is the largest organ of our body? And, it is no understatement that every single day, our skin withstands the onslaught of extreme weather and pollution just to keep our body temperature in check.
Skin is made up of two layers, namely the upper ‘epidermis’ and the lower ‘dermis’. The epidermis and the dermis are further divided into other layers.

Melanocytes produces pigment called ‘melanin’.
