Skin cells have terminally differentiated.

In the context of skin biology, the majority of skin cells, particularly keratinocytes, undergo terminal differentiation as they move from the basal layer to the surface of the skin. This process leads to the formation of the protective outer layer of the skin. While some skin cells may undergo senescence or quiescence under certain conditions, the primary characteristic of the majority of skin cells is that they are terminally differentiated.
