Just like in the previous article about beer causing acne for some people, the same can be said for cigarettes.  Since the large majority of smokers start in their late teens or early twenties, they might never think of this as a possible correlation since they were suffering from acne years before they even started smoking, but tobacco can actually make your acne stay longer.  Along with serious side effects such as cancer, various diseases, and death, smoking also causes skin damage.  This does not just mean wrinkles forming, but it causes your skin to deteriorate and that can lead to acne developing.  The best way to avoid this happening to you is easy: don’t smoke and use a product that is designed to help your skin be in great shape.
