My inner dryness is so severe that my makeup cakes. Is there any way to fix this inner dryness?

Working under strong air conditioning in the office all day has recently caused my already dry skin to scream in pain. It’s not just the surface that dries out; I feel an intense tightness deep within, as if my skin is being pulled from deep inside, to the point where it makes daily life uncomfortable.

I’ve tried slathering on supposedly famous high-moisture creams after washing my face and doing a face mask every day to solve this problem, but the effect is only temporary. It feels like pouring water into a bottomless pit; the internal dryness isn't resolved at all. The most stressful part is that even after spending a lot of time applying makeup in the morning, when I look in the mirror at work, my skin already looks rough and dry, and the makeup around my nose and cheeks keeps flaking off and looking uneven. It drives me crazy because the more I touch up, the messier it gets.

I feel like home care alone has reached its limit, so I am considering getting a skin booster treatment at a clinic. However, after looking into it, I found there are far more types than I expected—such as Rejuran Healer, exosomes, and hyaluronic acid injections—and since recommendations vary from clinic to clinic, I have absolutely no idea which procedure would be most effective for my severely dehydrated skin.
