“Formulated with sodium hyaluronic to keep skin moisturized all day Offers deep hydration while gently removing dead skin cells Also contains Sodium Hyaluronic to help boost and retain skin moisture”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": sodium hyaluronate, butylene glycol.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol

This is heaven. It's light and hydrating, and makes my skin glow like nothing else. It's also slightly cooling which is awesome for summer. I have dry skin and it does not irritate my skin at all. Best toner pad ever with very simple ingredients
Soothing and minimal ingredients! Love
