fat = 9 calories/gram
protein = 4 calories/gram

mix of fat and protein will vary depending on make up of the skin.

How much of each do you think cuticle skin has


i think you'd be pretty safe at calling human skin nearly pure protein and 4 calories/gram, especially outer layer only, to be basically pure protein. Though I don't know if humans can digest it since it is mostly keratin.
