      Fingerprints come from the fold in skins, and skin in itself it’s a really peculiar business for the body!
      No two skins are really the same, just like there are no two fingers that are really the same and no human grows in the same way.
      All these little differences make so that the print that you leave with the tip of your finger will be yours only!
