You are mistaken: reptiles skin are not moist.
You are perhaps confusing with the skin of amphibians (salamanders, frogs)?

No. Reptile skins are not moist -- unless they have been swimming. Reptiles get their oxygen through their lungs, like you and me.

Nope. Lizards and snakes have tough scaley integument to deter desiccation.
Turtles and crocodilians have tough leathery integument to serve as armor. No breathing through that.

No. The skin of amphibians is however.
