a: skin cells ~
b: a dried-up sponge

What:

"Dead skin cells are like a dried-up sponge. You can rub the most expensive "moisturisers" on your face all day long, and all that happens is the sponge gets greasy. Soak the sponge in water and it puffs up soft, before being left to dry out again. That's what happens to the surface of your skin."
