Polish translation:emulsja/balsam nawadniający
Explanation:
Chyba lepiej tak niż krem, bo można tym również zastąpić mydło i żel pod prysznic:

Aqueous Cream BP is a light, paraffin-based emulsion which is officially registered in the British Pharmacopoeia and categorised by the British National Formulary as a non-proprietary emollient preparation.[1] It is used as a topical, external medicine, emollient moisturiser and general-purpose substitute for toiletries such as soap, shower gel, shaving cream and lip salve.

krem zawierający wodę


Explanation:
Może nie brzmi to najlepiej, ale z pojęciem 'krem wodny' w przeciętnych materiałach kosmetycznych się nie zetknęłam. Miałam ostatnio podobny problem, ale to była ulotka z hasłami, tak więc z hasła 'aqueous' wybrnęłam na zasadzie 'zawiera wodę' i przeszło:-) HTH

agree  Polangmar: krem nawadniający

  -> Dzięki. Ja bym jednak napisała: emulsja, krem po polsku nie kojarzy się ze środkiem, którego można używać do mycia, a słowo emulsja jest dość uniwersalne - i w gruncie rzeczy ten środek tym właśnie jest.
agree  Olga Rochowska-Siwiec: O, to też dobre rozwiązanie:-) A co do wątpliwości, czy krem, czy emulsja/balsam, to w tym akurat ogólnym kontekście można by po prostu napisać ogólnie : kosmetyk
8 hrs
  -> Dziękuję :)
