My skin condition is really bad these daysㅜㅜ

Seriously, every time I look in the mirror, my skin feels irritated. The area around my cheeks and mouth gets whiter, my makeup looks cakey, and it feels rough to the touch. ㅜㅜ Even if I apply a lot of moisturizer, it feels tight right away, and it gets worse after washing my face. A few days ago, I was shocked to see that the area around my nose was so dry it was cracking. So these days, I pay close attention to my skin condition every time I do my skincare routine. It's just a checkup, after all.

I'm trying to figure out the cause one by one, wondering if I cleansed too harshly, exfoliated too often, or simply lacked moisture. I used to be able to just apply lotion, but now I can't. Even though I use the same skincare routine, my skin feels much more sensitive, which worries me. I guess I'm getting old. ㅜㅜ Tomorrow, I'll try using a moisturizing oil instead of cream.
