“Formulated to enhance the complexion by making the skin tone more even, reducing redness, and increasing skin suppleness, Q+A Super Food Facial Oil is packed full of complexion-enhancing vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids that moisturise, hydrate, and revitalise the skin.”
This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: helianthus annuus seed oil, ricinus communis 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).

Anti-oxidationSide benefit · Rubus idaeus seed oil, Vaccinium macrocarpon seed oil + 7 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (rubus idaeus seed oil, vaccinium macrocarpon seed oil) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
