There are two major parts to what we call the skin. The epidermis and the dermis.
The dermis is a blood rich layer that contains a number of cells including the ones that produce pigment, keratinized epithelium (hair follicles), glandular epithelium (sweat, sebaceous glands), dense irregular connective tissue (collagen), smooth muscle tissue (arrector pili muscles), nervous tissue (Meissner's & Pacinian Corpuscles), and blood vessels.
The epidermis is a layer whose cells become more and more filled with keratin and begin to die as they reach the surface.
There is layer underneath called the hypodermis which contains fatty tissue but it is not part of the skin.
