What the product description says
“It helps to keep the skin hydrated whilst reducing redness and preparing the skin for further treatment, the perfect bridge between your cleanser and moisturiser. This product is suitable for vegans.”
Source: Allbeauty

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycerin, lactobacillus ferment.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: beeswax, helianthus annuus seed oil.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: paraffinum liquidum, petrolatum

Product summary

Judging from the ingredient list, "Origins - Dr. Weil Mega Mushroom Relief and Resilience Soothing Treatment Lotion" works well for improving skin hydration To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Origins - Dr. Weil Mega Mushroom Relief and Resilience Soothing Treatment Lotion ticks this box. Glycerin, lactobacillus ferment, saccharomyces ferment filtrate, saccharomyces lysate extract and sodium hyaluronate in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Paraffinum liquidum, petrolatum, beeswax, helianthus annuus seed oil and pentylene glycol in this product help decrease the water evoporation from the skin, so that it stays hydrated for longer. These ingredients also soften the skin and take away the feeling of tightness and dryness.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: ergothioneine
