What the product description says
“This truly exceptional blend deeply hydrates and strengthens dry and brittle nails whilst effectively moisturising and soothing cuticles and the surrounding skin.”
Source: Naturisimo

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, argania spinosa kernel 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).
