Please tell me how to get rid of internal dryness.

I look fine on the outside, but I'm posting this because I'm so stressed about internal dryness. My skin feels fine when I apply makeup, but as time goes by, it gets tighter and tighter, and eventually, my makeup feels like it's caking. I think I'm applying enough moisturizer, but it feels like the problem isn't being resolved fundamentally, which is frustrating. I'm not sure if the internal dryness is an issue with the cream itself, or if something is lacking in my basic skincare routine. I'm wondering if I need to supplement it during the ampoule or toner step. For those of you who suffer from severe internal dryness like me, please share some tips on how you manage it!
