Skin has three layers: 1  The epidermis, the outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone. 2  The dermis, beneath the epidermis, contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands. 3  The deeper subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) is made of fat and connective tissue.
The outer layer of epithelium is called the parietal layer. Blood is filtered out from the capillaries through the visceral layer of epithelium into the capsular (Bowman's) space, and can move out from here into the proximal convoluted tubule. This section shows a renal corpuscle.he outer layer of epithelium is called the parietal layer.
