What the product description says
“With our carefully balanced blend of organic oils, this vegan facial oil achieves the extraordinary: it provides gentle moisture for dry skin, and balances oily and combination skin.”
Source: Rituel de Fille

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: caprylic/capric triglyceride, helianthus annuus 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).
