How To Prevent Wrinkles In Your 30s Naturally: Expert-Backed Tips For Healthy Skin
By starting a mindful, natural skincare and wellness routine in your 30s, you set the foundation for healthy, glowing skin well into your 40s and beyond no injectables required
Your 30s mark the beginning of subtle but noticeable changes in your skin — slower collagen production, fine lines around the eyes, and a slight loss of elasticity. While aging is natural and beautiful, taking care of your skin early can help delay the signs of aging and keep your complexion radiant for longer.
Here are dermatologist-approved, natural ways to keep wrinkles at bay in your 30s:
1. Prioritize Daily Sun Protection
UV exposure is the leading cause of premature aging. Even on cloudy days or indoors near windows, sun damage accumulates over time.
'Sunscreen is your skin's best defense against aging," says Dr. Madhuri Agarwal, celebrity dermatologist and founder, Yavana Aesthetics Clinic. 'Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every day even if you're just at home. Reapply every 2-3 hours if outdoors."
2. Hydrate From Within
Dehydration makes fine lines more visible. Drink plenty of water and incorporate hydrating foods like cucumber, watermelon, and oranges into your diet. Herbal teas and coconut water can also support skin hydration.
Avoid harsh scrubs and switch to gentle cleansers. Use a moisturizer rich in natural humectants like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and aloe vera. 'Your skincare should focus on supporting the skin barrier," advises Dr. Jaishree Sharad, aesthetic dermatologist and author of Skin Rules. 'Plant-based oils like rosehip or squalane, and antioxidants like Vitamin C, help prevent oxidative stress that leads to wrinkles."
4. Get Quality Sleep
Lack of sleep accelerates skin aging. Aim for 7–9 hours of restful sleep and consider sleeping on your back to avoid 'sleep lines" caused by facial compression on the pillow.
5. Facial Exercises and Massage
Simple facial yoga or gua sha massages stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage, improving skin tone and firmness over time. A few minutes of upward strokes with your fingers or a jade roller daily can go a long way.
6. Eat Antioxidant-Rich Foods
A diet rich in colorful fruits, leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and omega-3 fatty acids (like flaxseed and walnuts) boosts collagen production and protects against environmental damage.
Prevention is easier than correction. By starting a mindful, natural skincare and wellness routine in your 30s, you set the foundation for healthy, glowing skin well into your 40s and beyond no injectables required.

BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia to contest general election, says party leader
Dhaka, Jul 30 (PTI) Khaleda Zia, the chairperson of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and former premier, will contest the upcoming general election, her party leader said on Wednesday. BNP Vice Chairman Abdul Awal Mintoo said the 79-year-old party chief is doing well and she will contest the election, the Daily Star newspaper reported. 'She will be elected from Feni because she is now in good health," Mintoo told reporters after a views-exchange meeting organised by the Feni district administration. On his discussions with Zia's son and acting BNP chairman Tarique Rahman, who is in London, Mintoo said that they believe the election will be held in the first week of February. 'I think, considering the current situation of the country, the election may be held even before February. Because there is a pending case in the Supreme Court regarding the caretaker government. If a caretaker government is introduced, the election must be held within 90 days," he was quoted as saying by the paper. Zia returned to Dhaka from London in May after four months of medical treatment. She went to London in January for advanced medical care and was admitted to The London Clinic. Zia has long suffered from liver cirrhosis, kidney disease, heart problems, diabetes, and arthritis. The BNP chairperson was lodged in the Old Dhaka Central Jail on February 8, 2018, after the Dhaka court sentenced her in the Zia Orphanage Trust corruption case. During the COVID-19 outbreak, the then Sheikh Hasina-led Awami League government temporarily released Zia from jail after 776 days through an executive order, suspending her sentence on March 25, 2020, with conditions that she would stay in her house and not leave the country. On August 6 last year, after the ouster of the Hasina regime, Zia was freed by an order of President Mohammed Shahabuddin. In March, Bangladesh's Supreme Court upheld a High Court ruling that acquitted Zia in a corruption case in which she was sentenced to seven years in jail by a lower court. Zia now stands acquitted in both the Zia Orphanage Trust and Zia Charitable Trust cases, in which she had previously been convicted and sentenced. She served as the prime minister of Bangladesh from March 1991 to March 1996, and again from June 2001 to October 2006.

Odisha Deputy CM launches campaign to boost anganwadi centres
Bhubaneswar, Jul 30 (PTI) Odisha Deputy Chief Minister Pravati Parida on Wednesday launched a fortnightly campaign aimed at strengthening anganwadi centres across the state. Parida unveiled the 'Aasa Jiba Anganwadi' campaign, which will run from August 1-15, while inaugurating a state-level capacity building workshop for Child Development Project Officers (CDPOs) here. He appealed to people to visit their nearest anganwadi centres, assess cleanliness, infrastructure and functioning, and share the feedback for improvement in services. The campaign aligns with the World Breastfeeding Week (August 1-7) and aims to foster community ownership of early childhood development, officials said. 'The strength of our child development efforts lies in the capability of the CDPOs at the grassroots level," Parida said. She emphasised that Odisha's vision of becoming a malnutrition-free state by 2036 depends on empowering frontline leaders, and CDPOs play a central role in this transformation. During the occasion, she also launched the 'Anganwadi Welfare and Service Oversight Monitoring Everywhere (AWESOME)' app – a digital tool designed to strengthen infrastructure monitoring and service delivery at anganwadi centres. Chief Secretary Manoj Ahuja, speaking at the event, asked the CDPOs to adopt people-centric strategies, noting the central role of health, nutrition and early childhood education in the 'Vision Odisha 2036' framework. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was also signed between the Women & Child Development Department and the National Institute of Public Cooperation & Child Development (NIPCCD) to ensure continuous training and capacity building of Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) officers and staff in Odisha.

Red fox released in its natural habitat after month-long treatment in Ladakh
Leh, Jul 30 (PTI) A red fox, rescued in an injured condition, was released in its natural habitat by the wildlife department here after it underwent a month-long treatment and rehabilitation process, an official said on Wednesday. The fox was rescued on July 1 from Spituk Farka village of Leh and transported to the Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre (WRRC) for treatment, the official said. He said a thorough medical examination revealed that the animal was wounded in the shoulder and forearm, an injury probably caused by a barbed wire or a metal chain. As the injury was old, the area around the wound was infected and infested with maggots, the official said, adding that the animal was found to be underweight and in a weakened state. The red fox underwent proper treatment and care at the WRRC, including nutritional feeding, deworming and daily health monitoring, he added. The official said the rehabilitation was crucial for the animal for regaining strength and recovering from stress and malnutrition. The animal underwent treatment and rehabilitation for about a month and attained sound health before it was released near Spituk Farka following all necessary protocols, the official said.
