Skincare Series: 3 Essential Tips for 30-Somethings
Welcome to your 30s—the time to seriously amp up your anti-aging game! During this decade, the natural processes that keep your skin young start to slow down. By incorporating these 3 habits into your routine, you’ll give your complexion the extra help it needs to continue to look healthy and young.
1. Embrace Exfoliation
As cell turnover starts to decrease, the complexion starts to dull. Exfoliating twice a week will slough away those excess dead cells and keep your face looking bright.
We love Dr. Brandt’s Skincare PoreDermabrasion Pore Perfecting Exfoliator ($58), which also tightens pores and helps soak up excess oil.
2. Use a Mask
Do you really need an excuse to kick up your feet, pour yourself a glass of wine, and relax once a week? Get into the habit of treating yourself to a firming face mask like Clinique’s Turnaround Revitalizing Instant Facial ($37.50). The oil-free formula softens, deep cleans, and prevents wrinkles and discoloration.
3. Consider a Serum
Fight premature fine lines and sagging skin by introducing a facial serum in your evening routine. Look for formulas with retinol, a powerful, free-radical fighting antioxidant, and vitamins C and E, which brighten and fight free radicals. We recommend Peter Thomas Roth Retinol Fusion PM ($65), which works overnight to soften, soothe and refresh your complexion.
