What are the symptoms of dry skin

I am a 19-years old male and have an extremely dry skin. No creams or ointments work to provide the required moisture to my skin. Lately I have been wondering if I have dry skin or some skin disease. Can a skin specialist or person pertaining to this field tell me what is the symptom for dry skin?
