    Abstract

    Tobacco smoking is one of the main factors which negatively influence on the skin, and accelerate the process of skin ageing. Skin damaged by smoking appears grey, slack and dry. Oxidative stress is possible mechanism consistent with negative effects of smoking that activate skin premature wrinkling. This paper presents some of natural active compounds as polyphenols or unsaturated fatty acids which can reduce negative effect of smoking on the skin.
