Don't you ever feel upset when you look in the mirror? I'm curious how you maintain your glowing skin.

These days, every morning, when I sit down at my vanity, I sigh. Before, my complexion would look bright even with a simple base coat, but now, even with the most meticulous care, it feels like it quickly becomes dull. Especially in the afternoon, my makeup looks cakey and flaky, making me dread looking in the mirror. I see my friends all with radiant, glowing skin. Their complexions are so enviable, I feel like I'm falling behind, and it's frustrating. Even though I've tried adding more skincare routines, it just seems to be superficial, and the inner dryness remains unaddressed, deepening my concerns. Clear, translucent, and radiant skin! I'm so envious of those who achieve this, and I'm searching for the secret. Skin that's deeply hydrated and subtly radiant. What basic products or routines are most effective for achieving this look? I'd really appreciate any recommendations for mask packs or ampoules, or even just small tips like your daily routine. How do you all manage your skin?
