“Hei Poa Body Care Treasure of Polynesia Multi-Function Dry Oil 100 ml is an oil rich in Tahitian AO monoi that nourishes, moisturizes and sublimates the face, body and hair.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, cocos nucifera 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).
