I don't know anyone that has had a break out after smoking. I don't smoke myself so I guess I'm not completely sure, but my friends have beautiful skin. Probably better than my own haha.

@Macy I'm not trying to argue but there are far worse possible side effects for any medications that anyone here could be taking. Everything in moderation right? I'm not asking you to smoke.

All I got to say is inhaling smoke etc. is going to affect your health causing side effects. You've pretty much answered your own question by asking this.

Intaking any harmful substance will effect your health. drink a lot of water to reverse that effect. I noticed that my hair growth isnt as fast as it should be because I've increased the times I smoke a week.

And whoever said it isn't addictive, your totally wrong on that. It has over 400 unknown chemicals in it that haven't even been touched nor studied. And as for not being able to kill you, it can cause strokes , heart attack, and many more things but if you die from it, they will lit the cause as heart attack or stroke, even if the weed did cause it. Idiots. Go ahead and ruin your life. Kill your brain cells so all you can do is work at McDonald's until your 40. Maybe you should've paid attention in health class.

I would like to just make a tiny point... But whomever said its like coffee... Your damn right. BUT coffee is considered a drug by doctors now.. Caffeine in itself is a type of drug and coffee is PHYSICALLY addicting. So... Maybe not the best point on your part, my dear. Now like I said earlier, I smoked for quite some time and quit because really the worst effect from weed is how my way of life was crippled. I really just became some broke, unmotivated, tired woman. I don't judge people that choose to smoke, in just saying.. It weighed me down and held me back... I don't see why it's beneficial for anyone to smoke unless they're doing it for medical reasons. I started because of insomnia... But my addictive personality wanted it throughout the day... Soon I saw myself fading the line of using it for sleep and smoking just to be high. I hated that... So I quit.

Personally I have never broken out from smoking but my boyfriend's friend does. If he stops smoking, his break outs stop. He thinks it's the smoke tho, not weed. but if you get the munchies then of course eating bad food could cause you to break out.

Smoking causes major premature ageing and wrinkles especially around your mouth as it starves your skin of oxygen so that's not good.

It depends. I smoke and I used to have a lot of acne but now I rarely get them (and I still smoke). I guess it's the hormones. And also balancing, I suppose. My eating habit is healthier now and I regularly wash my face so I suppose it balances it out.

^^ it's the same if you smoke a spliff every night before you go to sleep.

Oo a better way to explain the coffee thing- if you use the exact same skincare routine on your face for 4 years if you suddenly stop or change the products your face will have a reaction, and its practically the same when you stop smoking weed. Your body has adjusted to it so if you take it away your body will react. Like when people say they can't sleep when they stop smoking, that's because they've become used to having something to help them sleep, just like if every night you had a cup of horlicks before you went to bed after a few months if you didnt have the cup of horlicks you'd struggle to get to sleep.

Right I wasn't going to bother but let's set you all straight about the addiction thing. Marijuana IS NOT and addictive substance, THC is not physically addictive. You can be MENTALLY addicted to weed in the same people people can addicted to coffee or something. After long term use if you try to stop most people will find it hard, because their bodies have adjusted to it and they LIKE to smoke it, its just like if after 5 years of drinking coffee every single day if you suddenly stopped you'd get withdrawal symptoms because your body has adjusted to having a substance that causes a physical change (caffeine). So no THC IS NOT PHYSICALLY ADDICTIVE, however it can be mentally addictive, particularly to those with an addictive personality. Just like many other legal substances can be!
There is ALOT of controversy and medical research about weed, we're not entirely sure why it effects people in different ways, there are basically no definites appart from that smoking weed with tobacco can lead to cancer (because of the tobacco)
there's are tons of doctors who have 2 completely different views on cannabis, you can't be so closed minded about it!

Yes... It does! Marijuana makes your skin dull and dry... And can sometimes give you wrinkles! And yes it does make you break out!

I also believe it IS an addictive drug! I couldn't sleep without it. My boyfriend, FIL & brother need it to calm themselves down. After seeing what's its done to so many people you realize how disgusting it really is!
...unless of course it's for cancer patients etc.

Yessss!! My MIL has been smoking weed since she was 14, she is now 41 & no word of a lie looks like she should be in her late 60s! Sorry but I have never met or seen an attractive pot smoker! I smoked once upon a time but stopped when people started pointing out my 'druggy marks' I got from it.

And I agree with Kamaria, I think it depends on your skin type and your hormones.

It can be addictive if laced with LCD, cocaine or other drugs, but straight up marijuana is fine. Not addictive.

After reading this, I think it's pretty evident it relies heavily on the person smoking to determine whether or not it's bad for your skin. I've seen people who smoke a lot of marijuana and it cleared up their skin, yet for others it made it worse. Personally, I don't smoke it, but I know it CAN be addictive depending on a lot of different factors. As I said before, it's all about the person who smokes it!

I don't think it's bad for your skin. People that I know that smoke do not have acne or skin problems.
