The three specific problems were selected from the main problem considering the variables moisture, smoothness and wrinkle. To answer the questions a general objective and three specific objectives according to the variables were formulated. The theoretical framework used for essential fatty acids in nutrition served to substantiate the results of work. The research is descriptive, developed with the comparative and descriptive method.

For purposes of data collection instrument was used as the team Aram SG (dermatological analyzer) with construct validity and reliability to 0.01%.
