The Skin You're In!!

Things to think about: Do you appreciate your skin? Do you know                                        what it does for you?
                                    How is your skin changing right now? Why                                          is that happening?  What can I do?
                                    What do I need to do today to make sure my                                        skin is healthy in the future?
