Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Minimal yet effective, this sheet mask is enriched with 35,000ppm of snail filtrate to soothe skin and improve its elasticity, leaving skin smooth, firm and supple.

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, snail secretion filtrate.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol

This product does not contain ingredients that are able to reduce fine lines and wrinkles or help with skin elasticity, but it can improve the look of the skin temporarily through moisturization. Well-moisturized skin might also be able to repair the sun damage better.
