What the product description says
“This fast-absorbing body lotion instantly nourishes skin and provides long-lasting moisture.”
Source: Yesstyle

Does not contain the most effective ingredients for moisturization. The emollients (cetearyl alcohol, hydrogenated poly(c6-14 olefin)) can help soften the upper layer of the skin. Keep in mind though that this product lacks humectants that attract water. You might want to use a separate product with ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin in addition (use before this product for the best results).
