Anti-pollution cosmetics are gaining more and more importance in the beauty sector, represented mainly by multifunctional products that seek to protect the skin from the effects of environmental pollution and electro-pollution. To understand the establishment of this category of products on the market, it is necessary to promote scientific knowledge about the mechanisms involved in the pollutant-skin interaction, which contributes to the development of cosmetics that are actually effective and safe. The main objective of this work was, therefore, to elucidate the negative effects of environmental pollution (with emphasis on particulate matter) and constant exposure to visible light in the form of blue light from electronics screens, as well as to highlight strategies used in anti-pollution cosmetics to minimize this damage. The study was conducted based on a literature review using the PRISMA protocol as a methodological tool to guide the stages of search, identification, selection and analysis of articles. In this context, the research was guided by keywords and based on data from Google Scholar, Scielo, PubMed and ResearchGate platforms. According to the data presented, it is concluded that the anti-pollution trend is becoming an increasingly recurrent and firm practice in the cosmetics market, which justifies the need to understand the factors involved in this concept.
