Melanocytes are the cells in the skin which produce melanin pigment. They are located in the lowest layer of the epidermis.
Keratinocytes make up roughly 90% of the epidermis and slowly migrate to the top of the skin, then die and flake off. This process of renewal takes roughly one month.
Melanin is the pigment in our skin which provides our skin protection from ultraviolet light exposure.
