My skin is usually never dry, because it's mostly oily. Recently, though, I've been having dry patches all over my face that flake, and I've never had this problem before. I tried putting on coconut oil, I didn't use some products that I thought dried my skin out, didn't take a shower to dry it out, exfoliated- and nothing worked. But I haven't been breaking out, either.
I've been 10% Benzoyl Peroxide cream overnight to prevent breakouts, and I have the feeling it also dries out my skin, but I have the fear that if I stop using it I'll break out again. I also use a mild cleanser in the morning and night, which I temporarily stopped using because it felt like it was burning my face.
Is it as simple as drinking more water? Or is it the stuff I'm using? Ech. I just don't want to flake everywhere.

Yeah no shit your skin is dry. Either stop using this or try a lower concentration. You can also try using a moisturizer.

Benzoyl peroxide is usually not recommended as this causes harm to skin.
Just use a good moisturizer OP, then you'll be fine. Go to the store and ask one of the chicks, they'll be able to help you out.
