Then what is the point? :-?
Not with a 100mW laser, your skin will absorb all the light, but a 200mW+ laser focused to a small point can burn your skin, although I doubt that it'll damage your eyes if you have your eyelids closed.
BUT your eyelids alone won't protect you from direct hits or reflections since your blink reflex can't protect you at this kind of power. You need to get some goggles.

Yep, that's what I thought. I have goggles, I was just curious about eyelids. I dont see how you can own a >100mW laser and not own goggles.

Your skin/flesh is actually a great blocker of green laser light. Try shining a 30mw green through your finger in the dark. The glow won't even reach the other side of your finger.
Do the same with a 5mw red and it makes your whole finger glow red.
