In my experience, moisturizer helps straight away. My skin isn't generally dry, except in the winter months. I have skincare regimen (created for me by my daughter) that includes a serum and a cream. Massive improvement and way less flakiness in the cold months.

Just don't tell her that it's no substitute for good genetics :(

I wouldn't have the heart.

My son has perfectly clear skin (teenager) with like zero breakouts and does the bare minimum as far as skincare goes.

Daughter is the complete opposite.
