What the product description says
“Botanical Lipids are rich in Omegas 6 and 9; they work to reinforce our natural moisture barrier, ensuring supple, soft-touch results.”
Source: Lookfantastic

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, helianthus annuus seed 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).
