[Skin Concerns] The infamous 'orange peel texture' -- is it almost always dehydrated skin / damaged moisture barrier? Has anyone here actually 'cured' theirs?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Like the title says. I've been searching this sub but it seems like half the time people say it's dehydration/damaged moisture barrier and the other half recommend bha/aha and even tretinoin.So, is that dreaded orange peel texture due to dehydration or needing actives? How can I get rid of it for good, and how do I make sure I don't end up right back here after adding any actives back in later?ETA: My current routine is like so--AM:Vanicream's Gentle CleanserTO's Niacinamide (wait 30 min)Melano Vitamin C SerumSake High Moisture Skin Lotion Toner By KikumasamuneTO's Natural Hydrating Factors + HAPM:Oil cleanseTret 0.05% (been on it for 7 months or so)Sake High Moisture Skin Lotion Toner By KikumasamuneCOSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power EssenceVanicream Moisturizing Skin CreamSometimes I put Aquaphor on top.
