Tips for Taking Care of Your Skin: 30s and 40s
You’ve heard the saying “40 is the new 30,” and we agree! Whether you are in your 30s or 40s, it is time to get serious about skincare. Be mindful of putting on sunscreen before running out the door and take notice of these tips for taking care of your skin in your 30s and 40s.
The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles becomes defined in your 30s and 40s. All those years of late nights, tanning with baby oil and eating whatever you wanted has finally caught up with you. Or if you spent your youth taking care of your skin, most likely you will still have some spots and wrinkles showing up now. Luckily, we have some tips to help combat or even prevent a lot of those signs of aging.
• Exfoliate– your skin has thinned and lost some collagen, and your complexion is beginning to look dull. Exfoliation will slough away those dead skin cells and smooth your skin.
• Consistent skincare routine– wash your face morning and night with your favorite cleanser and follow with an SPF moisturizer in the mornings.
• Introduce nighttime prevention– after you finish your above routine, add in one or two nighttime products to combat your signs of aging (dark spots, lines, wrinkles, etc). Retinols and serums are the most trusted solutions.
