What the product description says
“YAM Body Lotion enriched with vitamin E and Aloe Vera extract that nourishes and moisturizes the skin.”
Source: Feelunique

This product can help soften the skin and reduce its moisture loss with emollients and occlusives: butyrospermum parkii butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride.

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).
