• Smoking can make you look older by adding more wrinkles on your mouth area and by giving you a complexion that looks like ash.
• It can give you yellow colored nails, teeth and a bad breath as well.
• This habit can even make you lose all of your teeth eventually.
• One stick can already give you a list of chemicals that are harmful for your body.
• These chemicals include formaldehyde: used to preserve dead people, butane: found in lighters, acetone: found in nail polish removers and naphthalene which drives away moths.
• Nicotine can make you grow addicted to cigarettes.
