What the product description says

“Infused with Centella Asiatica Extract to soothe skin and Olive Oil to nourish and moisturize skin.”

Source: Yesstyle

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: butyrospermum parkii butter, olea europaea fruit 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).

Anti-oxidation

Not advertised by the brand · Centella asiatica extract, Hippophae rhamnoides fruit extract + 3 more

This product contains antioxidants (centella asiatica extract) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
