This product contains resveratrol. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.

What the product description says
“Our ultra rich, non-greasy hand cream is formulated to deeply moisturize and soften hard working hands.”
Source: 100% Pure

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: butyrospermum parkii butter, argania spinosa kernel oil.

Keep in mind that this product does not contain effective ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. This is why an additional product with humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid can be helpful (apply it before this product for the best results).
