Nutritious Melting Soft Creme/Mask Moisturizer

Estée Lauder Nutritious Melting Soft Creme / Mask is the moisturiser step of the Nutritious line, aimed at three things the brand names up front: pores, hydration and glow. The texture is pillowy and melts on contact, and it can be worn as a daily cream or layered on as a mask.

Targets	Dull, grumpy, easily irritated skin
Texture	Cushioned, pillowy cream that melts into skin
Key complex	Nutri-9 Complex — sweet kelp · red algae ferment · coconut water ferment
Formula	93% naturally derived · EWG VERIFIED® · FSC-certified recyclable carton

What it actually does

• Melts in rather than sitting on top. The cream is formulated to sink in with a comfortable, cushy feel instead of a heavy occlusive layer.
• Hydrates, soothes and strengthens. Estée Lauder positions it as calming and renewing, with the barrier strengthened after a single application and a moisture boost from first use.
• Works on shine and pore appearance. In the brand's testing, oiliness looked reduced by 52% and pores looked minimised by 41%. Brand-reported figures — individual results vary.
• Built on the Nutri-9 Complex. Sweet kelp (responsibly sourced) to help counter oiliness and the look of pores; red algae ferment (responsibly sourced) to soothe and reduce visible redness; and Estée Lauder's own coconut water ferment to hydrate and nourish.
• 93% naturally derived and EWG VERIFIED®. The Nutritious collection carries verification from the Environmental Working Group, an independent non-profit, covering formulation standards, transparency requirements and manufacturing practice.
• Packaged with recycling in mind. The carton is recyclable and made from FSC-certified paper.

How to use

1. As a daily moisturiser: smooth a small amount over cleansed face and neck, morning and night, as your last skincare step before SPF.
2. As a mask: apply a thicker layer, leave it to sink in, then massage in the excess or tissue it off.
3. Layer it last. Serums and essences go underneath; this seals them in.

Questions

Cream or mask — which should I use it as?

Both, and you can switch. Use a thin layer as your everyday moisturiser, and a thicker layer on days when your skin feels tight or looks flat.

What does EWG VERIFIED® actually mean here?

The Environmental Working Group is a third-party non-profit. Its verification on the Nutritious collection covers strict formulation standards, ingredient transparency and good manufacturing processes.

What is in the Nutri-9 Complex?

The three named elements are sweet kelp, red algae ferment and coconut water ferment — the last of which is proprietary to Estée Lauder.
