Outer skin layer (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

epidermis

'outer skin layer' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for epidermis that I've seen before include "Protective covering" , "Outermost layer" , "Surface of the skin" , "Outer layer of skin" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, The Times, the Jonesin' and The Guardian.
