I want to know how to get rid of internal dryness.

Lately, my skin looks fine on the surface, but it feels constantly tight and dry deep inside, which is really stressing me out.

I've tried applying moisturizer, using face masks, and layering toner multiple times, but it only feels hydrated for a brief moment before drying out again quickly.

It is especially annoying when I apply makeup because the internal dryness is so severe, causing my skin to look cakey and cracked.

So, I've been searching extensively for ways to fix this internal dryness lately. Does consistently using moisturizing products like hyaluronic acid toners or serums really help?

Some people say it's due to a lack of moisture, while others say it's an oil-water balance issue, so I'm not sure how to manage it.

I don't like sticky textures, but I want a product that feels like it hydrates deep inside. I'm also looking for a skincare routine that isn't too heavy on sensitive skin.

For those of you who actually suffered from severe internal dryness and saw improvement, please share any tips on how to fix it or recommend any products that worked well for you.
