How to Best Take Care of Your Skin in Your 30s

When it comes to taking care of your skin, there are a few things that everyone can agree on: cleanse well, use a moisturizer, apply sun protection. But what about the differences in skincare routines for different age groups? For example, people in their 30s might have very different needs and concerns than people in their 20s. So let’s dive into what skincare in your 30s should look like and what you might have been missing.

What’s in a Number?

When it comes to our skin, age is more than just a number. People in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and more have specific skin concerns and needs and should find appropriate skincare that reflects that.

In your 20s, you are more likely to be concerned with breakouts and dull-looking skin due to hormonal changes. In your30’s, you may focus more on pigmentation, fine lines, and volume loss. With age, our bodies produce less elastin and collagen, making the skin appear less tight. And exposure to the sun and other elements can cause the skin to begin to show signs of aging. Luckily there are plenty of treatments and products that can help you rejuvenate your skin.

Be Mindful of What You Apply to Your Skin

When you reach your 30s, your skin can become more sensitive and prone to damage, so it’s vital to choose effective yet gentle skincare. Using a gentle cleanser instead of wipes or heavy-duty face washes can help you cleanse your skin without irritating it. And look for moisturizers that hydrate and address fine lines and wrinkles.

Don’t skip the middle step between cleansing and moisturizing – serums! Serums usually cost more than lotions and cleansers because they are more difficult to formulate. But it’s worth it to splurge on serums instead of lotions and cleansers because they really do help moisturize, tighten, and brighten your complexion.

Exfoliate and Resurface

Exfoliating regularly might be one of the best things you can do for your skin in your 30s. Gently taking off the outermost layer of your skin can help even out the texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, age spots, and rough patches.

Purchasing a gentle facial exfoliator product and incorporating it into your skincare routine at home can help you maintain the results you want. But if you are ready to spruce up your skin professionally, be sure to check out the skin resurfacing procedure at Sunlimited Tanning & Day Spa. Our skin resurfacing procedures are completely non-invasive and remove damaged outer layers of skin to result in even skin tone and pigmentation. Here are a few of our services that may interest you:

• Microdermabrasion: uses an abrasive surface on the skin to remove the outer layer and rejuvenate, resulting in renewed skin tone and texture.
• Chemical Peels: use a solution to remove the outer layer of skin to reveal newer smooth skin beneath.
• Dermaplaning: uses an exfoliating blade to remove dead skin cells and hair from your face and leave the skin’s surface looking smooth and radiant.

Cleanse, Hydrate, and Rejuvenate

Receiving regular professional facials can help you maintain your skin clean so it is moisturized and break-out-free. Sunlimited Tanning & Day Spa can recommend a facial tailored to your specific needs. Freeing up clogged pores, moisturizing, and rejuvenating during a facial can help you reset your skin’s health and allow you to maintain the results of at-home skincare better.
