Skin is made of numerous layers and each layer is performing different functions. One of these layers is called the Basal Layer — this is where our skin cells form and divide to create the outer layer of our skin. Also in this layer, there is a cell called a Melanocyte. A Melanocyte is a dendritic cell, meaning it has branch-like legs that reach up through the skin and is responsible for transporting melanosomes. Melanosomes contain pigment (melanin) to give us the color of our skin, hair, and eyes.
