Overview

Founded in 2010 by Emily Doyle and Oliver Sweatman, Ursa Major develops and sells clean, refreshing skincare products aimed at consumers across the gender spectrum. Its catalogue now comprises 18 core items, including Golden Hour Recovery Cream, Fantastic Face Wash, Brighten Up Vitamin C Serum, and Hoppin’ Fresh Deodorant, as well as Go Easy Shampoo and Conditioner.
