What the product description says
“Eight healthy natural oils of Pyunkang Yul ATO Nourishing Baby Oil protect dry and damaged baby skin by hydrating and softening the skin.”
Source: Iherb Australia

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, macadamia ternifolia 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).
