How to Build the Best Skincare Routine for Your 30s?

As we grow older, our skin goes through different changes that require extra effort to maintain its optimal health. That's why building a 10-step Korean skincare routine for your 30s can be challenging as pre-mature skin aging comes with a variety of skin concerns and skin issues. So when it comes to the best anti-aging skincare routine, you'll need to tackle different skin concerns with different anti-aging ingredients and anti-aging products. From fine lines and wrinkles to dryness, here's a complete guide to the best anti-aging solution everyone in their 30s should know about!


If you want to boost FIRMNESS & ELASTICITY...

To prevent premature aging skin in your 30s, start introducing powerful skin-firming and collagen-boosting ingredients to your skincare routine. Korean skincare brand d'Alba has some pretty good choices when it comes to uniting two of the most powerful (yet very underrated) ingredients together for your skincare routine: peptide and white truffle (sounds fancy? I know!). Consider the d'Alba Peptide No Sebum Mild Gel Cleanser and the White Truffle First Spray Serum your daily combo that gives your skin the best of both worlds.

While the d'Alba Peptide No Sebum Mild Gel Cleanser contains BHAs to exfoliate and peptides to nourish the skin, the all-in-one White Truffle First Spray Serum is designed to keep your skin plump, supple, and hydrated with Italian white truffle to brighten and avocado oil to deeply moisturize and protect your skin.

HERA - Signia Luminesource Radiance Firming Serum

Another all-star player that deserves a spot in your anti-aging regime is the HERA Signia Luminesource Radiance Firming Serum. A favorite among serum lovers in their 30s, this skin-firming serum harnesses the power of 2.4 million narcissus plant cells and Golden Peptide™ (powered by three naturally glowing gems with Cell Bio Technology) to purify aged, stiff skin while simultaneously improving the skin’s firmness to make it look more supple.

Follow the serum with the HERA Age Away Collagenic Cream which is an elasticity-boosting cream that plumps skin with a velvety-soft firming and moisturizing layer, thanks to the nourishing blend of collagen, hyaluronic acid + truffle-derived yeast extract.


If you want to smooth FINE LINES & WRINKLES...

As we age, the loss of collagen and elasticity plays a part in the formation of wrinkles. Some people might think you need to stop smiling or laughing to avoid deep-set lines but, the truth is, you can prevent wrinkles and fine lines in your 30s by investing in a precisely-formulated essence like the SK-II Facial Treatment Essence (Pitera Essence). Hailed as a game-changer in the world of anti-aging skincare, this sold-every-2-second essence holds one of the best Japanese beauty secrets featuring PITERA™ — the brand's very own patented formula derived from yeast fermentation.

The fermented yeast from this anti-aging essence helps improve the texture and appearance of your skin with a powerful dose of easily absorbable vitamins and amino acids to improve fine lines and wrinkles while transforming your skin into a noticeably brighter and smoother complexion. Pair it with the SK-II Skin Power Cream to supercharge your skin with hydration and wrinkle-smoothing power.

Sulwhasoo - First Care Activating Serum

The Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Serum is another excellent MVP if you want to combat wrinkles. This first step balancing, anti-aging serum creates the ideal canvas to help boost absorption of products to follow in your skincare routine. It harnesses the power of five precious Korean herbs to target the fundamental root cause of multiple visible signs of aging.

If you want to target crow's feet (wrinkles around the eyes), add The History of Whoo Cheongidan Regenerating Eye Serum to your night-time routine as it revitalizes the eyes with the Secret Royal Court Brightening Formula loved by the ancient royal empress.


If you want to fight DRYNESS...

Our skin normally renews itself every 30 days, giving our skin that luminous glow. But as we get older, this renewal process takes longer and longer, which will leave your skin looking dull, dry, and tired. That's why, with dryness as the main struggle in our 30s, we need to kick our moisturizing game into high gear for the best anti-aging routine. Here's a powerful antioxidant-rich duo from primera to sort things out for you: the Miracle Seed Essence and the Super Black Seed Cold-Drop Serum.

The primera Miracle Seed Essence, on one hand, will drench your skin with enough hydration to maintain a natural oil and water balance - thanks to the 93.1% lotus seed extract which is rich in amino acids and linoleic acid. On the other hand, the Super Black Seed Cold-Drop Serum is effective in more ways than one. Its plant-infused, and highly-potent formula combines incredible antioxidant protection with hydrating and smoothing benefits.
