What the product description says
“Subtly augmenting (gloss has an instant, lip-plumping effect), this nourishing formula is enriched with a cocktail of plant extracts and protective antioxidants to ward against the damage wrought by everyday environmental stress, while maintaining moisture levels to keep your pout kissably smooth, supple and cushion-y soft.”

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: isocetyl stearate, diisostearyl malate.

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).
