Spanish term or phrase: Crema Nutritiva
What is the difference between "Crema hidratante" (moisturising cream) and "crema nutritiva"?
Lydia Tilt (X)
nourishing cream (nutritiva) moisturizing cream (hidratante)
Explanation:
In fact when I use these on my own face I see no big difference.
Technically moisturizing creams are designed to keep the hydration levels of skin. Nourishing creams bring other nutrients to skin, not only hydration.

agree  Andrea Nagy: Definitely nourishing cream. They have a heavier texture than simple moisturisers and are meant for dry/ mature skin types.
