What does the phrase "pide paso" mean.

Question

For example what does this sentence mean: "Nuestra piel pide paso y reclama el 100% de nuestra atención." The direct translation online says "asks step" but obviously that means zero sense so I was hoping that you would be able to help me. Gracias

Answer 1

I would say that it means that our skin wants to be aware of its needs and demands 100% of our attention.

However I could be wrong

I think in this sense, "pide paso" is used to say that our skin wants to step into the limelight and be a priority. - vivalafuriaroja, Jun 20, 2011
