"The gel-like formula glides smoothly through your natural curls, drenching them in moisture for long-lasting, touchable softness."

WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

It can be helpful for moisturization, but will not get the job done on its own. Has good ingredients to attract water to the skin, but can't reduce water loss over time. Could use another product on top to "seal in" moisture
