In your 30s, you may have started to notice signs of aging caused by circumstances that can take a toll on your skins health, like stress or hormonal swings (due to age, pregnancy or medications). This makes your 30s the perfect time to take skin care seriously if you haven’t already been doing so.

Your skincare routine should no longer only consist of a basic cleanser and moisturiser. Now is the time to make sure the products you are using are right for your skin for a serious boost in results, here is just a few products you should be looking at once you hit 30 (if you haven’t already).

• Sunscreen: First and foremostly, daily application of sunscreen (SPF 50+) should be the base of your skincare routine. This is so important because UV rays are one of the things that do the most damage to your skin.

• Niacinamide: This compound ingredient combines the power of Vitamin B3 and nicotinic acid to even out skin pigments while also improving elasticity and is a must to prevent early signs of ageing.

• AHA / BHA cleanser: Cell turnover is vital for retaining youthful looking skin, and as you age, your skin doesn’t naturally regenerate as quickly making an AHA / BHA cleanser which can slough off dead skin an important player in your skin care regime.
