What the product description says

“Let the nourishing, hydrating and softening properties of sweet almond oil leave your skin feeling silky-soft and hair looking healthy, strong and glossy.”

Source: N/A

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: isopropyl myristate, c12-15 alkyl benzoate.

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).
