Ursa Major Alpine Rich Cream hydrating face moisturizer — 1.69 oz, barrier support & fine-line softening

Ursa Major Alpine Rich Cream is a rich, plant-powered face moisturizer that deeply hydrates, supports the skin barrier, and visibly softens the look of fine lines. This ultra-nourishing cream blends alpine and forest-derived actives to deliver both immediate moisture and long-lasting barrier support. Formulated without parabens, synthetic fragrances, sulfates, silicones, or petrochemicals, the non-toxic, vegan formula uses Tremella mushroom, Skullcap, Moss stem cells, and vitamin-rich Cloudberry to hydrate, soothe, and help skin retain moisture. It’s a multipurpose daily cream you can use morning and night, especially when skin needs extra TLC in dry or cold conditions.

How does Alpine Rich Cream hydrate and lock in moisture?

Alpine Rich Cream combines humectant and occlusive strategies so skin receives moisture and keeps it. Tremella mushroom attracts water to the skin, while nourishing oils and plant-derived emollients form a light protective layer to reduce trans-epidermal water loss.

• Tremella mushroom for moisture retention and a plump look
• Moss stem cells to boost hydration pathways
• Cloudberry oil provides vitamins A, C and E to soften skin
• Plant-based emollients create a gentle seal without heavy residues

Will this cream help sensitive or reactive skin?

The formula avoids common irritants—no synthetic fragrance, parabens, PEGs, or sulfates—making it gentle for many sensitive skin types. Skullcap is included for its soothing properties, and the subtle geranium aroma is light and non-irritating for most users.

• Fragrance-free, non-toxic formulation reduces irritation risk
• Skullcap helps calm redness-prone or reactive skin
• Suitable as a barrier-repair step for compromised skin
• Patch-test recommended for extremely reactive skin

How should I use Alpine Rich Cream in my routine?

Apply after cleansing and any water-based serums while skin is still slightly damp to maximize moisture absorption. Use a pea-sized amount for daytime under sunscreen, and a richer layer at night when skin does heavy repair and replenishment.

• AM: after serum and before sunscreen for hydration and smoothness
• PM: thicker application as an overnight moisturizing treatment
• Spot treatment for very dry patches or after shaving to soothe skin
• Great as a layering cream in colder months for extra barrier support

What natural actives are in this cream and why do they matter?

Ursa Major focuses on alpine and forest botanicals chosen for hydration, barrier support, and antioxidant nourishment. Each active contributes a targeted benefit without relying on synthetic performance enhancers.

• Tremella mushroom: humectant that draws moisture into skin
• Skullcap: botanically soothing for sensitive or stressed skin
• Moss stem cells: support natural hydration mechanisms
• Cloudberry: vitamin-dense oil to soften and brighten the complexion

Who is this for Alpine Rich Cream is designed for dry, sensitive, and mature skin types that need richer hydration and help with fine-line smoothing. It’s also a solid option for normal skin during seasonal dryness or for anyone who prefers clean, plant-based skincare without harsh additives. If you want a jar that doubles as both a hydrator and a moisture-locking cream with non-toxic ingredients, this is a practical daily choice.
