Fun thing is, both are correct.
One is not technically correct, but is correct in the "offline" world. If you want to make something different you apply a skin to it. For those who are not that much into the subject, it is only logical to apply the real world word for the process.
I guess it's comparable with people using current, voltage and power mixed as well, while they are very different things.
So technically there is a difference, that's true, but in terms of linguistics, skins would be right as well.
