Ursa Major earns strong reviews for gentle, clean-feeling formulas that keep skin clear, hydrated, and refreshed—standouts include Fantastic Face Wash, 4-in-1 Essential Face Tonic, Golden Hour Recovery Cream, and Fortifying Gel Moisturizer—though some reviewers report minimal results, herbal scents they dislike, and mixed deodorant performance. Reviews also flag occasional stinging or congestion from Face Balm and needing more product for effect, helping buyers weigh effective everyday basics against less transformative outcomes.
I wanted to like this but it didn't work for me. It gave me a rash. And since I chose the mint scent, if you put too much on accidentally, it burns! I'm not sure if their other products are good or not, but I wouldn't recommend the deodorant.
Great brand. The mountain glow is the best serum I have ever used. Love that the female founder find natural ingredients in Vermont. Also really like the milky cleanser. Want to have this in my collection.
Ursa Major is a solid brand for what I think of as a "Premium drug store" brand. Definitely a better option than the classic brands you might typically find in a drug store, it's a company I feel good about buying from and has clean ingredients, but at the end of the day, there are just products I prefer more, that I normally buy over these. (I do often find myself traveling with their mini deodorant stick and face wipes in my bag though)
