She’s Got It!

Smoking is bad not only for your health, but also for your beauty. It decreases the flow of blood to the skin, leaving your complexion dull, promotes wrinkles and fine lines, deprives your skin of oxygen and robs your body of essential vitamins. That’s why smokers in their 30s have as many wrinkles as non-smokers in their 50s. Those who smoke every day get more wrinkles all over their face because of the nicotine that it constructs the tiny capillaries that nourish the skin. Smoking ages skin faster than anything else apart from sun damage. Smoking contracts your blood vessels and therefore doesn’t allow enough oxygen to reach the skin’s surface, resulting in dull-looking skin.
