Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
A lightweight, fast-absorbing serum designed to visibly plump, smooth, and restore the look of hydrated, healthy skin.
Source: Sonage
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, rice amino acids.
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).

Creates a thin drying film on the skin resulting in a short-term tightening effect
Potential irritants
A plant oil with a high content of volatile compounds that can irritate the skin and lead to allergic reactions. Can lead to photosensitivity

A preservative that comes from radishes fermented by a bacteria. New research suggests that the preservation properties in the ingredient come from an ammonium salt that is not present naturally in radish root but used in its cultivation. Is problematic because the exact amount of the preservative agents is difficult to determine
Can work as an exfoliant but is typically used to adjust the product pH
