When Should I Apply Moisturizer but my skin dry how i solve this problem?

I have naturally dry skin, and I often struggle to keep it feeling soft and hydrated throughout the day. I know using a moisturizer is important, but I am not exactly sure when the best time to apply it is to get the most benefit.

I have heard that timing can make a difference, especially for people with dry or sensitive skin like mine. For example, some say applying it right after showering helps lock in moisture, while others recommend using it multiple times a day, depending on the weather or your skincare routine.

I want to make sure I am using my moisturizer as effectively as possible to improve the health and appearance of my skin. Should I apply it immediately after washing my face, or is it better to wait a few minutes? Does the time of day matter—should I focus more on morning application, nighttime, or both? And are there specific times when reapplying is especially helpful for dry skin?

I am trying to create a skincare routine that works, but I do not want to waste product or time by applying moisturizer when it will not be as effective. What is the ideal timing and method for moisturizing dry skin?
