Keratin is the protein predominant in the stratum corneum.
Stratum Corneum
The outer layer of the skin (epidermis) is made up of stratified squamous epithelium. If it helps, remember stratified squamous is made up of multiple layers to provide protection, like when you scrape your knee. because hopefully, there will be other layers underneath! The epidermis is composed of five layers (from the outer most layer to the deepest layer): Stratum corneum Stratum lucidum Stratum granulosum Stratum spinosum Stratum basale Stratified squamous epithelial tissue The type of tissue that makes up the cells on top and bottom of the leaf (epidermis) is dermal tissue. Epithelial tissue makes up the human epidermis.
Stratified squamous epithelial cells are what form the top two layers of the epidermis: stratum corneum and stratum lucidum. Then stratified cuboidal epithelial cells are found in the bottom three layers of the epidermis: stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale. (Stratum basale is only layer that contains nothing but mitotic cells. This layer contains melanocytes as well.) The entire epidermis, however is identified as stratified squamous because epithelial tissue is always identified by the type of epithelial tissue at the apical (top) surface.
Thick skin ( contains five layers: startum basala, spinosum, granulosum, lucidum and corneum)It has prominent stratum corneum and well- developed stratum granulosum. In addition ,it has additional epidermal layer which is named as stratum lucidum. On the top of this ,thick layer lacks integumentary appendages: hair follicles, sebaceous glands and arrector pili muscles. Generally, thick skin is located to those aeas subjected to wear and tear and mainly on the palms of the hand and soles of the feet. Thin skin ( contains only four layers: startum basala, spinosum, granulosum, and corneum)It has less prominent stratum corneum than thick skin and less developed stratum granulosum. But, it is without clear epidermal layer, stratum lucidum. Unlike the thick skin, thin skin has hair follicles, sebaceous glands and arrector pili muscles . Such type of skin is dominant and lines most of the body surface. stratum lucidum

The type of skin cancer which is most invasive, not only to the deepest layers of the skin, but to distant metastatic sites beyond, is malignant melanoma.

Muscle tissue.
The type of tissue that makes up the surface of the skin is called stratified squamous epithelium. This tissue is composed of multiple layers of flat cells that provide protection against external stressors and help to prevent dehydration or infection. It is a key component of the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin.
