[EN] Skincare Secrets for Your 30s

1. Cleanse Like You Mean It

Start and end your day with a gentle cleanser. Think of it as wiping the slate clean—removing the day's grime, makeup, and questionable life choices. A great option is the Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing Cleanser, which removes impurities without stripping your skin of moisture.

2. Embrace the Serum Life

Serums are like that extra shot of espresso for your skin. In the morning, a vitamin C or niacinamide serum can brighten your complexion and fend off free radicals. Try the Dr.Althea 15% Niacinamide Purity Serum for a glow boost and even skin tone. At night, retinol is your best friend to fight fine lines— the IsNtree Hyper Retinol EX 1.0 Serum is a solid choice for cell renewal and collagen production.

3. Moisturize, Even If You "Glow" Naturally

Yes, even if your forehead shines bright like a diamond, moisturizing is essential. For lightweight hydration, try the Medicube Collagen Jelly Cream, which improves skin elasticity. If your skin needs extra barrier protection, the Dr.Althea 147 Barrier Cream is perfect for deep hydration and strengthening the skin.

4. Sunscreen: Your Skin's Best Friend

Remember those carefree days of sunbathing? Your skin does. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 50 daily to protect against premature aging and sunspots. A great daily pick is the COSRX Aloe Soothing Sun Cream SPF50+ PA+++, which hydrates while protecting. Another fantastic option is the IsNtree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel SPF50, a non-greasy formula perfect for daily wear.

5. Hydrate Like It's Your Job

Dehydrated skin can look as tired as you feel before your morning coffee. Keep a water bottle handy and sip throughout the day to maintain that youthful glow. Bonus: A good hydrating mask like the Biodance Bio Collagen Real Deep Mask can give your skin an extra moisture boost.

6. Consider Professional Help (For Your Skin, That Is)

If over-the-counter products aren't cutting it, it might be time to consult a dermatologist. Professional treatments like laser therapy or chemical peels can address concerns like sun damage and hyperpigmentation.

7. Don't Fall for Every Skincare Fad

The internet is rife with bizarre skincare trends. Before you try that snail slime mask or vampire facial, remember: not all that glitters is gold. Stick to proven methods and consult professionals before diving into the latest craze.

8. Take Care of Your Eyes

The delicate skin around your eyes deserves some extra love. The HaruHaru Black Rice Bakuchiol Eye Cream is a great option for minimizing fine lines and dark circles.

9. Laugh Lines Are a Sign of a Life Well-Lived

While it's great to take care of your skin, don't stress over every wrinkle. After all, laughter is the best medicine—and it gives you a free facelift!

Embrace your thirties with confidence and a solid skincare routine. Your skin will thank you, and you'll continue to glow—both inside and out.
