What the product description says

“A silky and absorbent body oil enriched with cold-pressed organic oils that helps to soothe, soften and hydrate your skin, leaving it feeling revitalised and nourished.”

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: helianthus annuus seed oil, butyrospermum parkii 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).
