Hey buddy,

After spending lots of time in the water, it’s totally normal for our skin to wrink, especially fingers and toes

You know, our skin is covered with its own special oil called sebum.

Sebum is found on the outermost layer of skin. Sebum lubricates and protects your skin. It also makes your skin a bit waterproof. That’s why getting caught in the rain, hopping in the shower after a game, or washing your hands before dinner won’t leave your skin soggy. Sebum is there to keep the water out.

But what happens when you spend a long time in the water? Well, there’s only a particular amount of sebum on your skin at a time.
Once the sebum is washed away, the water can make its way into the outer layer of skin. The water does this by osmosis. This is when water actually moves from one thing into another, from a place where there is more water to a place where there is less water. There is more water in the pool than there is in your body, so it naturally moves to the place where there is less water Although your fingers may look shriveled like raisins, they aren’t really shriveled – they’re actually waterlogged!
The extra water in your fingers causes the skin to swell in some places but not others, and that’s what causes the wrinkles.

Hope you got this
