Taking care of your skin after 30 years

We are looking for a cream that preserves youthful skin

At the age of 30, a young woman begins to seriously think about how to maintain the elasticity and fresh appearance of her skin, because it is at this time that her beauty begins to slowly fade. It’s still too early to use the “heavy artillery” - anti-wrinkle cream, but the usual daily care is clearly not enough. “Price Expert” is in a hurry to reassure the ladies - there are many products that will help them prolong the youth of their skin.

Criteria for choosing the best face creams from 30 years old

Let's say right away that manufacturers are somewhat disingenuous when they tie the effect of their creams to a certain age. Markings “25+”, “30+”, etc. - just a marketing ploy. There are no age-related (or anti-aging) cosmetics; there are only those that best meet the needs of the skin. Therefore, before purchasing a cream, you should clearly determine what problems it should solve.

Skin type and condition

By the age of 30, you already need to firmly know your skin type, its features and vagaries. It is generally accepted to divide facial skin into oily, combination, normal and dry. If you have special skin sensitivity, a tendency to allergies and irritation, or, for example, rosacea, you must take these or other features into account when choosing a cream. But if you don’t have wrinkles yet, then you don’t need a cream labeled “anti-wrinkle”!

Need for night care

If for young girls there is no fundamental need to use night cream, then from the age of 30 its use is very desirable. At night, the skin has the opportunity to intensively regenerate and absorb valuable substances as much as possible. Night cream differs from day cream not only in its richer composition, but also in the absence of a sun protection factor. Many manufacturers offer comprehensive care: day plus night cream.

Composition of skin creams after 30 years

The main and only value of the cream is its effectiveness. From the age of 30, the cream should contain moisturizing, nourishing, antioxidant, and sun protection components. Let's name the most relevant ones:

• panthenol and ceramides - regenerate the epidermis, improve the appearance of the skin;
• alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) - remove the layer of dead cells, causing the skin to renew itself;
• vitamins A, C, E and enzymes (including coenzyme Q10) - antioxidants that prevent skin aging;
• Sanitary blocks (solar filters): titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, avobenzone, Tinosorb, Mexoril - protect against the negative effects of the sun;
• glycerin - moisturizes, but in dry air conditions it can have the opposite effect - draw moisture from the skin;
• hyaluronic acid - as an additive to creams, it retains moisture well in the upper layers of the epidermis;
• collagen and elastin - help maintain skin elasticity.

Helps to combat the first wrinkles retinoids- vitamin A derivatives (Retin-A, tretinoin, retyl palmitate, retylaldehyde and others). However, cosmetologists do not recommend using fairly strong creams with retinoids every day - for skin aged 30-35 years, 2 times a week before bed is enough.

Manufacturers of face creams after 30 years

Let us remind you that most of the luxury and mass cosmetics belong to the same global corporations (Loreal, Estee Lauder, Beiersdorf, etc.). Of course, one cannot say that all of it is “poured from one pot,” but often price and packaging are the only difference between expensive and not so expensive brands. However, skin over 30 will no longer forgive poor-quality or erroneous care, so in search of the most effective luxury cream, we recommend paying attention to the following brands: “Clinique”, “Clarins”, “Biotherm”, “Loccitane”, “Lancome”, “ Este Lauder." Their assortment includes a large number of creams aimed specifically at the needs of skin 30+.

Mid-price creams: Lumene, Nivea, Olay, Loreal Diademine series and others also have their audience and attract with a relatively affordable price and a good set of effective components. Among inexpensive but effective cosmetics, Expert Price can highlight products from Belarusian manufacturers (Vitex-Belita) and Russian creams (Black Pearl, Clean Line, Natura Siberica, etc.).

For skin with special needs, after 30 years, pharmacy cosmetics become increasingly relevant: Vichy, Uriage, Avene, Nuxe, La Roche-Posay, Doliva, Bioderma, as well as the Russian “Cora”. Judging by the reviews, the “first aid kit” is really effective, but the main thing here is not to overdo it: many pharmaceutical creams have a fairly strong effect.

The cream is strong, at the first wrinkles it is enough to use it 2-3 times a week at night.

There are many secrets and subtleties that make up facial skin care after 30 years, and most of them require very little effort and time. It is difficult to meet a lady who, in adulthood, would not dream of looking like an eighteen-year-old girl. Many of them forget that desire alone is not enough - constant procedures are needed, which can be carried out even at home. Just a few minutes a day not to watch your favorite TV series, but to pay attention to yourself - and your face will definitely shine with freshness, youth and health.

For sagging skin, age is not a barrier, and the moment when it inevitably begins to become covered with wrinkles and lose elasticity cannot be avoided. Don’t panic in advance - you can push it back significantly and remain beautiful for a long time. You can take care of your facial skin after 30 years at home without the help of a specialist, just with a little patience. And we will tell you about all the nuances of working with skin that shows the first signs of age-related changes!

Usually, with good nutrition and health, skin at 30 years old does not yet have clear signs of aging. Most often, small facial wrinkles and a slight drooping of the oval are visible on it. It is quite possible to combat such changes by going to a cosmetologist 1-2 times every six months and using high-quality cosmetics.

What happens to a woman’s facial skin after 30 years?

To understand what exactly needs to be paid more attention to, you should understand what processes occur deep in the layers of the epidermis:

• the sebaceous glands work unstably, slowing down the secretion;
• muscle tone decreases (crow's feet appear, numerous small wrinkles near the lips and nose, sagging is noticeable on the cheeks);
• the skin becomes dry and loses moisture;
• blood flow is disrupted, as a result of which the face loses its color;
• elastin and collagen fibers are practically not produced, which further reduces elasticity.

This is quite enough to understand that you cannot do without comprehensive care, and the struggle ahead is serious. You should not hope that decorative cosmetics will save the situation - if at first you can “cover up” the defects quite successfully, after a while even tons of products will not be able to hide wrinkles or sagging. The only way out here is to carry out procedures that can fill the skin tissue with nutrients, moisturize, and tone.

Before you begin the procedures, you should understand what proper facial skin care after 30 consists of. There are many subtleties and nuances here, because each skin is individual and requires special treatment.

The first stage in carrying out home treatments is to find out what type of skin to choose products for:

• Normal. Without any special defects - spider veins, stains, greasy shine. Caring for it will not be difficult, but if you neglect it, the sebaceous glands will instantly react and begin to produce fat much more intensely.
• Combined. The T-zone is usually oilier than other areas, and it also ages much faster. It is these places that the greatest attention should be paid during procedures.
• Dry. It is characterized by increased dryness and blood vessels visible through a thin layer of skin. Without proper care, it quickly becomes covered with wrinkles.
• Fat. The active work of the sebaceous glands is noticeable at first glance - a fatty layer is constantly visible on the face. There is no need to worry too much about this after the age of 30 - usually it becomes combined and requires normal care.

Care for normal skin type

The procedure for caring for healthy facial skin at 30 should begin with washing with cool water and a light massage (acupressure or simple patting). This will increase blood circulation, improve tone, and allow nutrients to penetrate the layers of the epidermis.

Be sure to use moisturizers (masks, creams). It is better not to use nutritional preparations - they stimulate the appearance of wrinkles. In the evening, cleanse the skin with a special milk, gel or mask.

Dry skin care

What is the care for dry skin after 30 and how to prolong youth? In the morning, be sure to wipe your face with a cleansing tonic, massage, and apply any high-fat product (kefir, yogurt, sour cream). You can make your own homemade mask. Be sure to apply moisturizer every day.

In the evening, repeat the manipulations with the cleansing tonic. Be sure to apply a moisturizer (you can alternate it with a nourishing cream).

4 fatal mistakes in caring for oily skin – how to really take care of it

Unhappy owners of oily skin often make mistakes that are immediately reflected on the face in the form of wrinkles, a scattering of pimples and blackheads. What are their mistakes and how to take care of oily skin after 30 years without mistakes?

Main errors and their corrections:

1. Using hot water for washing. This stimulates the sebaceous glands and causes oily shine. The liquid should be cool or lukewarm.
2. Using oily cosmetics (store-bought or homemade). Thanks to this, pimples appear that do not decorate the face at all. The composition should be low-fat, plant-based.
3. Washing with hard water. The results of the procedure are the appearance of irritation. It is better to use decoctions of sage or mint for washing - this will not only have a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin, but will also give an even, healthy shade.
4. Applying fatty face powder. The effect after the procedure is amazing - the skin looks like a mask with layers of cosmetic product. It's easy to correct the mistake - use loose powder, it will draw out sebum.

Care for combination skin types

Caring for combination skin after 30 is not difficult, the main thing is to strictly adhere to the recommendations of specialists:

• select cosmetic preparations intended only for this type;
• if homemade formulations are used, preference should be given to products for oily and dry types, applying them to the corresponding areas of the face;
• Be sure to do deep cleaning weekly;
• make masks based on plant materials (St. John's wort, birch, yarrow, cucumbers, citrus fruits).

In the evening, apply cream for combination skin or make a special mask.

There are many tricks that turn facial care at 30 at home into pleasure. You don’t need to go to a salon for this, you can do everything yourself and look well-groomed and always young.

Step-by-step care:

1. start the day with proper washing, using tonic or milk, but in no case soap;
2. have breakfast only with healthy dishes, include fruits, herbs, vegetables in your diet, give up sweets;
3. drink plenty of fluids – green tea, plain water, vitamin fruit drinks and juices;
4. use special anti-aging products (cream, mask, tonic, lotion);
5. regularly cleanse and nourish the skin with masks;
6. Be sure to remove any remaining makeup before going to bed.

Alcohol and cigarettes also leave their mark on the face, so it is better to sacrifice a few minutes of pleasure and get glowing youthful skin in return.

Hydration and nutrition

You can combine two skin care processes at home. The easiest option for moisturizing and nourishing is to purchase special products labeled “after 30.” You can use them at 32 or 45 - the effect will not change.

The creams should contain the following ingredients:

• any essential oil;
• nutrients;
• vitamins;
• moisturizing components;
• UV filters.

A little trick - in summer it is better to give preference to light formulations, but in winter choose richer products that will protect the skin from the harmful effects of frosty air.

Cleansing and toning

The necessary steps in skin care should be toning and cleansing, which will get rid of excess fat. Tips from a cosmetologist for facial care:

• use special products (milk, gel for washing);
• regularly remove dust and dirt using scrubs;
• The entire face should be cleaned;
• Be sure to use homemade or store-bought masks.

The skin must constantly breathe, so it is better not to overuse cosmetics.

Proper makeup removal

Grooming rules include removing makeup, which is where women make fatal mistakes. Few requirements:

• do not leave makeup on overnight;
• remove decorative cosmetics with special compounds;
• Do not use force or vigorously rub your eyes or skin;
• do “fasting” days, allowing your face to rest.

If you feel a little discomfort on your face after removing makeup, it is better to experiment with another milk or foam - there is a possibility that the product was chosen incorrectly.

Folk remedies

Regardless of when ladies over 30 undergo facial care, in the fall, spring, or winter, it needs to be done regularly and carefully. Folk remedies that are as effective as expensive drugs will come to the rescue here.

The most commonly used plant materials here are leaves, roots, inflorescences. You can add products from the refrigerator - cottage cheese, sour cream and honey have no less effective effects and perfectly nourish the epidermal cells.

An open mind about skin care around the eyes from age 30

We should not forget that daily facial care should also include procedures in the areas around the eyes. There are no special requirements here, but masks against crow’s feet should become a necessary habit after 30.

You can use purchased drugs or homemade formulations for the procedures - there is no significant difference between them. The only requirement is to carry them out constantly; it is much easier to prevent wrinkles than to deal with them later.

Neck care

Body care is not only a procedure for the face, the neck also needs to be given due attention. There is no need to experiment or invent special formulations - the skin of the face and neck is practically the same, so you can use the same products. The use of nourishing and moisturizing compositions on the neck is simply necessary, because it also quickly becomes flabby and loses its elasticity.

Day and night facial care after 30 years

Regular skin care includes not only daytime, but also evening treatments:

1. washing;
2. toning;
3. applying a cream intended for ladies over 30 years old;
4. deep cleansing;
5. makeup removal;
6. applying a night product (cream for 30 years).

Each of these points must be followed strictly - only this guarantees a successful result.

After 30, procedures carried out in the salon are simply necessary, because homemade compositions are unlikely to penetrate deep into the tissues of the epidermis. For ladies over 30, there are many salon procedures:

• peeling (heals and rejuvenates, cleansing of dead skin particles);
• injections (Botox, hyaluronic acid, mesotherapy) that nourish cells and restore elasticity and a beautiful shade;
• special massage (improves blood microcirculation, refreshes, smoothes wrinkles).

The procedures necessary in a particular case are prescribed only by a specialist, paying more attention to problem areas.

Carrying out this stage of facial skin care after 30 is especially important. Homemade compositions can preserve youth, but subject to regular use.

There are many tricks in using home remedies, one of them is to first clean and steam the skin - this will allow the nutrients to penetrate to the maximum depth.

Anti-wrinkle mask for forehead

A little over 30 is a wonderful age, which, however, will require a little more effort from you than in your youth and youth. We do not recommend being discouraged about this. After all body care m can be simple and accessible to every woman. It is enough to follow simple recommendations every day to avoid wrinkles and premature skin aging. The most important advice is don’t be lazy to take care of yourself!

Regardless of whether you are 30 or 40 years old, you need to take care of your hair with special care. Dull and lifeless hair is a common problem, especially for girls who like to wear makeup and use styling products. To avoid such results, you need to follow super simple rules:

1. Hair care will be successful only if you follow it daily. Without regular care, even the best therapeutic hair mask will not have an effect.
2. Pay attention to washing your hair. It is important to choose the right shampoo. It is better to buy professional shampoos, preferably with a minimum amount of sulfates. After shampoo you need to use a balm or conditioner. Post-shampoo products should be applied not from the roots, but from the middle of the hair.
3. Do not wash your hair with hot water. Slightly warm water will do, but rinse with cool water.
4. Use hot rollers, curling irons, flat irons and hair dryers as little as possible. Try to dry your hair naturally. Or use a hairdryer on a gentle “cold” setting. Hot rollers can be easily replaced with curlers. Using a curling iron and tongs, spray your hair with a special heat-protective spray.
5. The comb plays an important role. It should not be metal so as not to injure the scalp. It is advisable to use a wooden brush with natural pork bristles.
6. Comb your hair starting from the ends and slowly working your way up to the roots. Unravel the knots with your hands.
7. Do not comb wet hair, as wet hairs cling to the bristles of the comb and stretch.
8. Do not use tight and narrow elastic bands that pull on your hair. Only wide and soft hair bands.
9. Trim the ends of your hair regularly - approximately once every three months.
10. In windy weather, tie your hair in a ponytail, in winter - hide it under a hat, in summer - use sunscreen for your hair. Protect hair from breakage and dryness.
11. Eat right. The diet should include meat, fish, juices, grains, legumes, fresh fruits, vegetables and dairy products.
12. Use hair masks regularly – about 2 times a week.

Universal hair mask at home:

• Dilute 2 tbsp. spoons of mustard powder with hot water - also 2 tablespoons.
• Wait until the mixture has cooled, add 1 yolk and 2 tablespoons of burdock oil.
• Apply the mask evenly on your head.
• Wrap your head in a towel and wait 5 minutes.
• Rinse off the mask with warm water.
• Result: rapid growth and strengthening of hair. It should be used no more than once a week.

Facial care after 30: your correct daily routine

After 30 years, the production of hyaluronic acid decreases. The skin becomes dry, wrinkles and age spots appear. Therefore, you need to use moisturizers and tonics every day. At the same time, facial care at home should differ:

1. Start your morning by cleansing your skin by washing with melted or boiled water. Dry skin should be cleansed with lotion or milk.
2. An ice cube will help tone your skin in the morning. You can freeze natural berry juice and wipe your face with the cube in the morning.
3. Before leaving the house, apply a moisturizing day cream. Only then apply decorative cosmetics.
4. During the day, you need to spray your face with thermal water or mineral water without gas.
5. In the evening, cleanse your face of cosmetics using foam or gel. At the age of “30+” you need to use micellar water without alcohol, it does not dry out the skin.
6. Cleanse your skin with a scrub. For oily skin - once every 3-4 days, for dry skin - once every 2 weeks. Steam your face first.
7. Use a night moisturizer strictly before 10:30 p.m. to prevent swelling in the morning. If you have pimples on your face, use a product with salicylic acid.

Hand care: basic rules

• Reduce contact with cold water and chemicals. Use protective creams.
• Use antibacterial soaps less, they dry out the skin.
• Moisturize your hands 5 times more often than your face.
• Dead cells from the skin of your hands should be removed once a week with peeling agents.
• Caring for your hands in winter involves using gloves and protective equipment.
• Massage your hands to improve tone and elasticity.
• Use hand masks.

Skin care for 30 years does not bring much trouble to a woman, but after this age the imprint of pregnancy, career and life troubles is left. A fine network of wrinkles and acne appear in the eye and mouth area, and the skin on the face becomes dull. In this regard, many women are dissatisfied with their appearance. Correct and regular skin care will help correct this situation.

Features of the skin of a thirty-year-old woman

Skin changes in thirty-year-old women are associated with a lack of moisture in it. This is what causes fine wrinkles to appear and the skin loses its elasticity. Therefore, one of the stages of daily care should be the use of creams or masks with a moisturizing effect.

Decreased functionality of the sebaceous glands has two sides. On the one hand, pimples and inflammations at this age no longer bother you, but on the other hand, the skin becomes less elastic and firm. Therefore, at the age of thirty it is necessary to change your skin care tactics.

Cosmetics for thirty-year-old women should be nourishing and restorative. It is worth choosing thick creams that contain oils from plants such as:

• argan;
• sea ​​​​buckthorn;
• sesame;
• rose hip.

In addition, care products should contain elastin and collagen (substances that maintain skin elasticity), as well as sunscreen filters (except for night cream).

Dullness of the skin is explained by the fact that blood circulation in the epidermal cells is disrupted. To prevent this, you need to systematically exfoliate and use special scrubs.

Basic rules for facial care

In order for facial skin to retain its beauty at the age of 30, a woman needs to perform step-by-step care every day:

• cleansing and toning;
• hydration and nutrition with nutrients.

In addition, it is important to monitor your diet, proper sleep and the absence of stressful situations. It is also necessary to regularly do procedures such as:

• peeling (twice a year);
• facial skin massage (vacuum or lymphatic drainage);
• applying masks.

Basic facial skin care procedures are cleansing of makeup, dust and impurities and toning. You need to cleanse your skin twice a day using special products. Clean skin is better nourished by substances from creams and lotions, and also does not experience oxygen starvation.

For cleansing, you should choose products depending on your skin type and with a rejuvenating effect. In winter, you can cleanse your skin with milk or mousse, and in summer - with airy foam or gel. The essence of toning is to restore the acid-base balance. It is best to use an alcohol-free toner.

When choosing cosmetics, you should pay attention to the recommended age for use. Skin care after 30 years should be carried out with cosmetics labeled “30+”. Products with this label contain the entire complex of substances that support the skin at this age.

Mandatory facial skin care procedures at 30 years old

One of the mandatory procedures that must be done regularly is the use of an exfoliating scrub. Those with normal to oily skin are advised to cleanse their skin with alcohol-free scrubs a couple of times a week. If your skin is dry, you can use the scrub no more than once every two weeks.

Facial skin after 30 years is more sensitive and susceptible to microdamage, so the scrub should not contain large abrasive particles and alkalis. An excellent option is to make a scrub at home. For example, for normal and combination skin types, you can prepare a scrub from dried orange peel and natural yogurt or kefir.

Another important point in facial care is protecting the skin from the effects of the external environment (frost, sun, wind, etc.). To do this, you need to choose nourishing creams with sunscreen filters.

In order for skin care at 30 to have maximum effect, you must follow the following rules for using the cream:

• the cream is applied no later than an hour before night rest;
• remove any remaining makeup or cream with a paper towel;
• You need to lubricate with cream not only the face, but also the ears, as well as the neck and décolleté area.

Note! Mandatory skin care for 30 years includes eyelid care. To protect and nourish the skin in this area of ​​the face, you need to use a caffeine cream. This will help get rid of puffiness around the eyes.

To apply the cream to the eyelids, use a cotton pad or ring finger.

In order for the skin to look elastic and youthful at the age of thirty, an integrated approach is required, that is, not only providing cosmetic care and doing makeup correctly, but also following some recommendations:

• adhere to a balanced diet, consume fresh fruits and vegetables as much as possible;
• use a lot of different greens when preparing dishes;
• do not eat fatty, salty and spicy foods;
• stop smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages;
• lead an active lifestyle and play sports;
• use cosmetics depending on the weather: in summer with protection from ultraviolet radiation, in winter - with protection from frosty and dry air.

Every representative of the fairer sex should know the intricacies of daily facial skin care. By following simple tips, a woman will have a beautiful and youthful appearance, and feel cheerful and energetic.

The main thing in facial skin care is the correctly selected methods and products, as well as the regularity of their use. Thirty years is a period when a woman needs to reconsider her lifestyle and give up bad habits. Thanks to this, she will retain her charm and youth.
