30 Incredible Skincare Tips If You’re In Your 30s

In Your 30s? These Skincare Tips Are For You

These skincare tips are the real deal!

Now that you’re in your 30s, you’ve adjusted your makeup tips and tricks, and frequent breakouts are finally (mostly) a thing of the past. In your 30s, the key to skincare treatments is to set yourself up for success in the future. Establish healthy and mindful practices now, from SPF to smart cleaners and everything in between. Then, your protected and moisturized skin will maintain its youthful look for years to come.

Unsure where to start? From natural products to daily and weekly practices, these 30 incredible skincare tips will help you live your best day, every day. And your skin will look better than ever.

Skincare Tips #1. Take lukewarm showers

No more steamy, 30-minute shower episodes. Sorry! Super hot water only dries out skin (and hair). So keep showers short and warm rather than hot.

Skincare Tips #2. Face oil

You’ll notice that face oil products come in very tiny portions—for a good reason. Massage the oil onto your face sparingly, just two times a week before bed. Just a hint of this oil treatment will make your skin smoother and softer.

Skincare Tips #3. Cut back on sugar

High sugar consumption can speed up the appearance of aging and can even cause acne breakouts—something you’ll want to reduce in your 30s. For expert help, get a dietitian to give you nutritional advice.

Skincare Tips #4. H2O

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. I can’t emphasize this one enough. To really moisturize your skin, you should drink plenty of water to counteract any alcohol, coffee, or caffeinated tea that dehydrates your throughout the day.

Skincare Tips #5. Eat the rainbow

Maintain a colorful diet rich in fruits and vegetables for healthy, glowing skin. Experts recommend about 2 cups of fruit and 3 cups of veggies a day.

Skincare Tips #6. Facial steamer

A small household facial steamer can boost your skincare routine weekly. Once a week, give your face a good steam. This gentle steam will help to open your pores and sooth your skin.

Skincare Tips #7. Exfoliate at night

Skin renews itself over night. So make room for new, healthy cells to form by wiping away dead skin cells with a gentle exfoliation. Look for a face wash with jojoba beads or another fine grainy texture for an effective scrub.

Skincare Tips #8. Retinol magic

Choose face creams—especially night creams—with retinol. Retinol is a type of vitamin A that prevents wrinkles and promotes collagen building. Get into the habit of using retinol products now, and you’ll see long-term results in the future.

Skincare Tips #9. Fine-tuned makeup remover

The bedtime routine is key to healthy skin. But you don’t have to wait until you’re ready to sleep to remove your makeup. Sooner is always better than later. So get into the routine of taking off makeup and giving your face a good cleanse as soon as you’re home for the evening.

Skincare Tips #10. SPF

Sun protection factor should be a part of your daily makeup routine. Make sure it’s in a moisturizer—at least SPF 15—and you’ll protect your face from harmful rays.

Skincare Tips #11. Use a peel

A face peel is like a dermatologist treatment that you can do at home. Two to three times a week is plenty of peeling action to keep your face clean and bright all week long.

Skincare Tips #12. Eye cream

Use an eye cream before bed. Sure, it might sound like something your grandmother used to use. But the truth is, a good eye cream can protect your skin with healthy antioxidants and retinol. So seek out a creamy moisturizer to prevent wrinkles.

Skincare Tips #13. Creamy makeup

Exchange your powdered makeup for cream-based products, which are gentler on the skin. Powder highlights the textures of skin underneath them—especially blemishes. So choose a cream blush and cream foundation, which will blend easily with your skin.

Skincare Tips #14. Chin up!

It’s easy to create premature wrinkles in your neck by routinely looking down at your phone. Combat this practice with good posture and plenty of time engaging with people, face-to-face, rather than with a screen.

Skincare Tips #15. Body butter for hands

Massage body butter into your knuckles, wrists, and cuticles for all-over moisture before bed. Body butter is thick and will help prevent cracks and visible dryness in your hands.

Skincare Tips #16. Go green

Make it a priority to consume more greens. One of the easiest ways to make sure you’re getting enough dark, leafy greens in your diet is to drink them. That’s right—blend them right into a smoothie, along with fresh orange juice and a banana. This will boost your metabolism and give your body and skin the nutrients they need.

Skincare Tips #17. Gentle acne treatments

Many acne treatments dry out skin immediately, which contributes to the appearance of aging. In your 30s, you can get a facial from an esthetician or even spot-treat the occasional blemish with a gentle acne lotion that cleanses skin and locks in moisture at the same time.

Skincare Tips #18. Say no to makeup wipes

Makeup removal wipes really just spread buildup around your face and dehydrate your skin. Opt for a sulfate-free gel or cleansing lotion that will remove makeup, minimize bacteria, and moisturize your skin all in one.

Skincare Tips #19. No smoking zone

If you’re a smoker, then your 30s is a better time than ever to quit. Set your skin, nails, teeth, and entire body up for success in the years to come by refusing a cigarette. Smoking can age you and your skin. So this year, make it a goal to gradually cut back.

Skincare Tips #20. Up the Vitamin A

Consume more vitamin A, which especially supports skin health. Think: sweet potatoes, spinach, kale, carrots, and eggs.

Skincare Tips #21. Neck care

Treat your neck with as much care as your treat your face. The neck is often one of the first areas to show the signs of aging. Fully apply a neck cream with SPF to the front and back of your neck to make sure that it is evenly coated and protected all day long.

Skincare Tips #22. Antioxidant boost

Antioxidants fight off free radicals and help to boost collagen production. Reach for citrus, berries, and dark leafy greens for an antioxidant-rich diet.

Skincare Tips #23. Reduce sodium intake

Too much salt consumption can cause puffiness under the eyes and dehydration. Reduce your sodium intake by choosing low-sodium snacks like unsalted trail mix, fruit smoothies, and yogurt.

Skincare Tips #24. Visit a dermatologist or esthetician, or get them to come to you

Even one visit by an esthetician or with a dermatologist can help you to get your skincare routine on track so that you can see the results you want. No time is better than in your 30s to rethink how you treat your skin. Work with a professional to develop the right routine for you and your face.

Skincare Tips #25. Have moles checked

Make sure to get to your doctor (or dermatologist) to ask about any skin growths or moles that you have questions about. And remember—the effects of poor skincare habits in your teens and 20s can catch up with you in your 30s. So it’s always a good idea to ask questions about anything new or suspicious that might pop up.

Skincare Tips #26. Use a shaving cream

Too often, women rely on soapy bubbles alone to give their legs a quick shave. But be attentive with shaving cream, instead. A cream will prevent dry skin and allow for a thorough and gentle shave.

Skincare Tips #27. Full-body moisture

Following a shower, get into the habit of moisturizing your entire body. Legs, especially, can become visibly dry in the winter.

Skincare Tips #28. Gentle kitchen hand soap

Resorting to dish soap to wash your hands in the kitchen will only further dry them out. Stock up on a gentle, fresh-scented hand soap to keep your hands clean and soft as you prep meals.

Skincare Tips #29. Make time for leisure

It might sound silly, but it’s true—picking up a hobby can actually help your skin. This is because hobbies tend to help us relax and reduce stress by focusing on something we enjoy. And a low-stress lifestyle will help you skin glow and remain blemish-free.

Skincare Tips #30. Rest up

Sleep is so important for skin renewal and overall care. Make sure you are getting your full 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Practice routine bedtime habits to set yourself up for a healthy sleep cycle.

So…

Now there’s only one tip left: Smile! Let your skin shine and your smile radiate all the way through your 30s. With these easy-to-follow incredible skincare tips, you’ll feel healthier and more awake—and your skin will thank you for it. Checking in with an esthetician along with the proper precautionary steps and a little self-love can go a long way. Love the skin you’re in, naturally.
