Skin Care in Your 30s

How to take care of your skin in your 30s?

In your 30s, your skin care routine should target any barriers to skin health that are keeping your skin from being as healthy as possible. It is also time to begin and antiaging skin care routine if you have not already.

The best skin care routine 


Is 30 too late to start taking care of your skin?

It is never too late to begin taking care of your skin.

A good skin care routine will help you keep your skin form and prevent wrinkles and sagging by decreasing skin aging and inflammation.

How often should you exfoliate in your 30s?

How often to exfoliate depends upon your skin type. Dry skin types should only exfoliate 3 times a week while oily types can exfoliate every day.

Over-exfoliating can lead to a broken skin barrier, acne, sensitive skin and other skin issues.

Your Skincare Regimen Should Target Common Skin Conditions in Your 30s

In your third decade of life, it is common to have these skin conditions: acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and melasma. Your skincare routine should treat all of your skin problems- not just one of them. Two or more of these skin problems can occur at the same time. For example, you may have acne that leaves a dark spot when the pimple heals. For example you may have inflamed skin and melasma, In that case it would be important that the skin lightening ingredients in your routine do not worsen your skin’s inflammation. This is why you need to know your Baumann Skin Type.

What Do Most 30-Year-Olds Do Wrong With Skin Care?

Most 30-years-olds combine expensive skin care products in their skin care routine that inactivate each other. This means you are wasting time and money. First of all- you might not need to spend a lot of money on skin care. Secondly- you might not need that product you are buying. Thirdly, your cleanser or moisturizer or other products in the skin care regimen may be affecting the efficacy of that expensive antiaging serum you bought. Our regimen builder helps you choose each step of your regimen so that the products work together- even if they are from different brands.

Make sure you are not making any of these skincare mistakes:

How To Take Care of Your Skin in your 30s

Using the right skin care every day is the best way to take care of your skin.

The best skin care for 30+ skin is a good cleanser, an antiaging serum, a moisturizer and a sunscreen.

These should be used every morning and night or best results.

Skincare on a Budget- Not Enough Time or Money

Don’t worry, I am here to help you narrow it down to when to save and when to splurge. I can also help you find what products really matter and which you can skip.

Choose the best products from several different skin care brands

Best Skincare Products for 30s

I will review some of my favorite products, but you will get better advice in an email that you receive after taking the quiz because the information will be based on your Baumann Skin Type and how you answered the quiz questions.

Best sunscreen for your 30s

I cannot stress this enough: Use a sunscreen- EVERYDAY! Sunscreen is proven to slow skin aging and even skin tone. Sunscreen protects your skin from developing inflammation from ultraviolet radiation damage and other forms of light. If you are in your 30s and have not found a sunscreen you want to use every day- then I bet you are not shopping by your Baumann Skin Type. Most skin types like tinted sunscreens to protect your skin from blue light emitted from your phone. (Yes - your phone! Yikes!)

Best Facial Cleanser for your 30s

The second most important product that 30 years olds should carefully choose is a facial cleanser. The type of cleanser depends upon your skin concerns. For example, if you have facial redness and sensitive skin, consider an anti-inflammatory cleanser such as the face washes recommended by dermatologists for rosacea. Preventing inflammation at an early age will help reduce overall skin damage and keep your skin tone even. Using the wrong skin cleanser can lead to skin dehydration, inflammation, pigmentation and skin aging.

Best Face Cream and Night Cream for 30-Year-Olds

The best face cream for your 30 something skin will have ingredients that target your barriers to skin health. Creams are better for dry skin, serums are better for oily skin. Step 3 of your morning regimen usually has ingredients that target your skin issues, while step 4 has a moisturizer that makes step 3 work better. You should splurge on the step 3 product and save on the step 4 moisturizer. In most cases step 3 and 4 of the am and pm regimen can be the same- but again- it depends upon your Baumann Skin Type. If you have dry skin, you need a barrier repair moisturizer.

These are our favorite Barrier Repair Creams:
