skin on face looks dehydrated

It's like it's dry on the inside. Drinkwise I don't like anything but water and coffee, and drink coffee less than once a month so mainly all I drink is water, and I drink lots of it. I try and eat good fats like salmon, avocado etc.

Use face oils and creams and so on but really looks more like an inside issue if you know what I mean. My skin doesn't usually feel dry, it just looks dehydrated. Are there any supplements that might help? (I currently take vitamin c and vitamin b complex, not for my skin just for health).

Oh also I'm not a sun lover anyway but always wear spf30-50 on my face regardless of the weather so that's the cause either.

You can tell if its dehydrated as opposed to dry, when u pinch a small amount does it look like crepe paper? Thats dehydration if it is you need hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is naturally occuring in the body, it attracts and holds up to 1000 x its weight in water. The ordinary does a serum, but its also in lots of moisturisers.
