Skin's regulatory function is mostly related to temperature regulation. A layer of fat helps hold in heat. Dilation or constriction of the blood vessels in the skin release or conserve heat. Sweating also helps cool your body through evaporation.

Your skin helps regulate your body temperature by keeping you cool.
It covers your body which helps to keep heat in your body. When you get too hot, the pores in the skin release sweat to help cool it down.
The skin helps to regulate body temperature through the process of vasodilation and vasoconstriction. When the body is too hot, blood vessels near the surface of the skin dilate, allowing more blood to flow to the surface and release heat through sweating. When the body is too cold, blood vessels constrict to reduce blood flow to the surface, conserving heat in the body's core.
The skin provides an outer sheath or covering for the whole body. Skin helps regulate temperature. It prevents organisms from direct access to internal organs.
