What the product description says
“Non-greasy, non-oily and oh-so-soothing; the MegaJelly™ Primer treats your skin like the delicate diva she is with Glycerin and D-Panthenol for deep hydration.”
Source: Lookfantastic

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. 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. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycerin, sodium hyaluronate.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycine soja oil.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: oligopeptide-68, panthenol

May help

This product contains oligopeptide-68. There is some human evidence that this ingredient helps reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity and firmness, though it is smaller or less consistent than the evidence for the best anti-aging ingredients.
