What the product description says
β€œTried and tested on our consumers, this incredible balm has proven results *80% agree skin feels DEEPLY MOISTURISED.”
Source: Revolution Beauty

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: bis-diglyceryl polyacyladipate-2, isononyl isononanoate.

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).
