    The skin is the largest organ of the body that protects us and helps regulate temperature. It has three layers - the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layers. Melanin in the skin provides color and protects from the sun's UV rays. The skin protects the body, helps us sense touch and temperature, makes vitamin D from sunlight, and removes waste through sweating. Proper skin care includes wearing protective clothing, drinking water, a healthy diet, and regular exercise and sleep.
