They're only 35-36ish in OotP, per JKR (not that that's necessarily canon, but MWPP+Lily and Snape appear to have been born sometime between 1958 and 1960 - they're younger than Lucius, who's 41 per OotP canon).
Alan Rickman skews the whole thing older in the movies, because obviously, there's no way he's only 33-34ish in PoA, but mentally, yeah. We can do what we like. *g*
