Ursa Major

Ursa Major was born from a simple belief: skincare should feel good, work hard, and never compromise your well‑being or the planet. After trading the pace of New York City for the forests of Vermont, the founders set out to create clean, forest‑infused essentials that deliver real results without fear‑based marketing or unnecessary clutter.

That commitment to integrity extends far beyond formulas. Ursa Major’s packaging shift prioritizes glass and aluminum, introduces smarter, easier‑to‑use components, and partners with Pact Collective for responsible recycling. As a Certified Plastic Negative and B Corp brand, they remove twice the plastic they create and continually raise the bar on sustainability—from upcycled ingredients to reduced emissions and environmental giving.

The result is skincare that’s effective, uplifting, and genuinely responsible—proving you don’t have to choose between great skin and a healthier planet.

FOUNDER STORY

"After years of living in NYC and working in the beauty industry, we'd seen behind the curtain - and it wasn't always pretty. So we moved to beautiful Vermont, and started asking: what if skincare could be different? Uplifting, effective, easy, and truly clean?

We created Ursa Major for people who want to treat their skin—and spirit—right. No fear-based marketing. No fluff. Just pure, powerful forest-infused essentials that deliver real results, while delighting the senses.

Here’s to your healthiest, happiest self… and your best skin yet!"
