What does the product description say?

"Restoration Oil"

From product name

WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

Yes. Has good ingredients to seal in the moisture in the skin. But: it is not effective in attracting water to the skin, so you might want to use an additional product with good humectant ingredients (like glycerin or hyaluronic acid)

Ingredient	Effectiveness	Concentration	Irritancy
lupinus albus seed extract	HIGH
oryza sativa bran oil	HIGH
alaria esculenta extract	HIGH

Pos	Ingredient Name	Description
1	oryza sativa bran oil	Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and might have some anti-oxidant properties
2	helianthus annuus seed oil	A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function
3	coconut alkanes	An emollient that helps soften the skin

6	oenothera biennis oil	Helps soften the upper layer of the skin and can support skin barrier function

8	octyldodecanol	An emollient that helps to soften the skin and create a pleasant product texture and stabilize the formulation
9	coco-caprylate/caprate	Helps to soften the upper layer of the skin without creating a greasy texture
10	curcuma longa root extract	A plant extract that can contain an active compound curcumin, that may have some anti-inflammatory properties when applied to the skin, but solid research is lacking and the typical concentration used in skincare products is too low. Can be an irritant
11	parfum	An aromatic blend of unspecified irritating ingredients
12	citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) peel oil expressed
13	pelargonium graveolens (geranium) oil
14	lavandula hybrid (lavandin) oil	Plant extract that can be irritating and is a known allergen
15	cinnamomum camphora linalooliferum wood oil
16	vitis vinifera seed oil	A great emollient that can have some anti-oxidant properties
17	mentha arvensis herb oil
18	vanilla planifolia fruit extract	A plant extract used as a fragrance. Can be irritating

33	retinyl palmitate	Three steps removed from the active form of vitamin A - retinoic acid. To have an effect in the skin, it first needs to be converted twice to become the retinoic acid. This means it is less potent than retinol, but could also be less irritating. Once converted to the retinoic acid in the skin, it helps against all signs of aging, improves skin cell turnover and helps fight blemishes and clogged pores. However, in many cosmetic formulations, it is used in a concentration that is too low to have the full effect
34	cardiospermum halicacabum flower/leaf/vine extract	A plant extract that might have some anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties but evidence is missing
35	citral	A fragrance with a lemon scent. A likely irritant
