Seeking Product Recommendations for Very Dry Skin

Hello!

Me: I am 37 years old. I have very, very dry skin genetically. I do not get oily anywhere on my face at all and have no acne. Unfortunately for my skin, I live in a very dry climate as well. I drink 3L water every day, eat a healthy diet, and exercise.

My routine:

AM:

-Aestura Atobarrier 365 Cream

-Skin1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum

I am unable to wash my face more than 1x per day due to dryness

PM:

-Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Triple AHA Gentle Cleansing Gel

-Cos de BAHA RS Retinol 2.5 Serum

- Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Probio-Cica Intensive Ampoule

- Medicube Deep Vita C Capsule Cream

-Skin 1004 Madagascar Centella Probio-Cica Bakuchiol Eye Cream

-Aestura Atobarrier 365 Cream

I've been using this routine for some time now, but lately my skin has been feeling dry and tight only a couple of hours after applying. I'm looking to add or replace products to get my skin deeply hydrated and keep it that way! I try to keep my routine fairly simple. I've found that if it gets too complex, I start slacking.

I tried using prescription Tretinoin but could not even get my skin accustomed to a once a week application at the lowest dose. I really want to keep a retinoid in my rotation for anti-aging benefits. I don't have strong signs of aging yet, and I'd like to keep it that way for as long as possible.

Products I have seen recommended:

-CENTELLIAN 24 Madeca Cream Time Reverse

-Bioheal BOH Probioderm 3D Lifting Cream

I am interested in trying the VT Reedle Shot as well

Other concerns: I am allergic to snail mucin.
