About This Quote

The skin is a vital organ that allows the body to breathe and maintain a healthy life. If it is neglected, it will show its condition by becoming dry and scaly. If it is not taken care of, it will also show its miserable condition from being louse-ridden and riddled with diseases. When we love our skin, it will be soft and supple. It will not have any signs of disease or lice because we take proper care of it.
