| Abstract (English): |
Skin is one of the most potent metaphorical representations in music and literature, where it can have inexhaustible symbolism, representing emotions, identity, and vulnerability. This article offers a dermatological analysis of the use of skin in Shakira's lyrics, highlighting how the Colombian singer uses skin to reflect themes of love, loss, self-knowledge, and desire. Through a study of key phrases from her songs, we explore how Shakira turns skin into a poetic resource to express profound human experiences. This narrative, observed from a dermatological and literary perspective, suggests a broad and culturally significant view of skin, which transcends its biological function and becomes a symbol of emotional complexity.

| Abstract (Spanish): |
La piel es una de las representaciones metafóricas más potentes en la música y la literatura, donde puede tener un simbolismo inagotable y representar emoción, identidad y vulnerabilidad. Este artículo ofrece un análisis dermatológico sobre el uso de la piel en las letras de las canciones de Shakira, destacando cómo la cantante colombiana utiliza la piel para reflejar temas de amor, pérdida, autoconocimiento y deseo. A través de un estudio de frases clave de sus canciones, exploramos cómo Shakira convierte la piel en un recurso poético para expresar experiencias humanas profundas. Esta narrativa, observada desde una perspectiva dermatológica y literaria, sugiere una visión amplia y culturalmente significativa de la piel, que trasciende su función biológica y se convierte en un símbolo de la complejidad emocional.
