What the product description says
“Precious oil serum soothes, nourishes, hydrates and softens cuticles to create a supple border around your nails.”
Source: Bluemercury

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: glycine soja oil, glyceryl linolenate.

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).
