What the product description says
“Formulated with natural essential oils.”
Source: Yesstyle

Does not contain the most effective ingredients for moisturization. The emollients (isostearyl alcohol) can help soften the upper layer of the skin. Keep in mind though that this product lacks humectants that attract water. You might want to use a separate product with ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin in addition (use before this product for the best results).

Isostearyl alcoholEffect: MediumHelps soften the upper layer of the skin~3.9–5.9%
Polyquaternium-51Effect: LowAn emollient that helps create a nice silky finish on the skin~2.8–4.2%
