The skin texture appears rough overall.

Lately, I have been very worried because my skin condition seems to have noticeably worsened. In particular, I have suddenly started getting a lot of breakouts, and at the same time, severe flaking has made my skin texture look rough overall. My skin used to be fairly stable without any major issues, but recently, it feels like it reacts easily to even minor irritations, so I am more concerned.

I am stressed because when I wake up in the morning and look in the mirror, I notice red breakouts around my cheeks and chin, and my makeup often looks patchy due to dead skin cells. Even when I use my usual skincare products, they don't feel like they are absorbing well; instead, they feel like they are just sitting on the surface, so I am struggling to decide which products to use. It is also frustrating that I don't know the exact cause, as I suspect the flaking might be due to dryness, but on the other hand, it also seems like the breakouts are occurring because my skin is too oily.

I find myself considering various possibilities, such as whether the products I've been using recently aren't suitable for me, or if it's due to my lifestyle habits or my physical condition. I've had a series of sleep-deprived days, and my eating habits seem to have been a bit irregular, so I suspect these factors may have contributed. Therefore, rather than using new products immediately, I plan to minimize irritation and focus on basic moisturizing and soothing for now.

Nevertheless, if the breakouts and flaking continue to recur, I think I should consider consulting a dermatologist. If anyone has experienced similar symptoms, I am curious to know how you managed them and whether improvement is possible with home care alone. I am worried about whether my skin can return to a stable state, but I plan to manage it slowly without being too impatient.
