The saying "beauty is only skin deep" means that physical beauty is superficial and fleeting, while true beauty is found in a person's character, personality, and inner qualities. It suggests that what we see on the outside is less important than a person's heart and soul, and that a person's actions and inner nature are more meaningful than their appearance.
