Why Produce Your Own Lotion?

 Why Produce Your Own Lotion?

Your skin is the largest organ in your body, amounting to a total area of around 20 square feet. Yet clearly skin is not an important organ, not in comparison to the liver, heart, lungs, etc. Think again!
While the other organs are vital to our existence, they are nicely protected within the body. Every inch of your skin is exposed to the elements. It protects us from infection, helps us to regulate body temperature, and enables us to sense the outside world in terms of touch and temperature. Also, for many, the most important factor when it comes to skin is as its indicator of advancing years.
Being the barrier between the internal organs and the outside world it is subjected to more damage than any other, yet it repairs and renews itself every moment of every day of your life. Having such an important role perhaps we should take more care of it?
