Essential Face Wipes

After 15 years in the beauty world, I was fed up. Toxic ingredients, false promises, and over-priced products. So we moved to Vermont and started Ursa Major: skincare that uses clean, forest-infused ingredients for real results, without all the BS of traditional beauty.

Emily Ursa Major Co-Founder

Powered by clean actives like Willow Bark and Aloe, our Essential Face Wipes are high-impact, low-maintenance skincare—proven to perform.

Freshen up on the fly

A mini reset to keep in your purse, pocket, or gym bag—ideal for travel, post-workout, or a quick one-step cleanse at the end of a busy day.

Remove daily grime

Wipe off makeup, sweat, SPF and excess oils, freeing pores from daily buildup that can cause congestion, breakouts, and irritation.

4 benefits in 1 step

Steeped in our 4-in-1 Essential Face Tonic, made with a medley of plant actives, to cleanse, exfoliate, soothe and hydrate skin—all at once.

Outside-fresh aroma

A blend of real Orange, Lavender, and Fir create a herbal brew—and a pocket-sized dose of nature you can take with you anywhere.

“Absolutely LOVE these wipes! Travel-ready, convenient and gives you all the goods! Take it from this esthetician!”

Gabi

“Love, love, love! So handy and clean without leaving my face feeling dry and taut. And they smell amazing—like a little aromatherapy session in a packet.”

Cecil S.

“Essential is right! Great for travel, but also for after golf or a hot hike, and nights when you don’t want to do a “traditional” wash! They are A+!!”

Mauri C.

“These are a must-have in my skincare stash! They are the perfect size, they clean wonderfully, and they also hydrate—added bonus is the clean scent.”

Susan V.

“I haven’t found a product that ‘does it all’ like this one: it both cleans your face and leaves you feeling fresh and hydrated when you’re done. I make sure I’ve got one tucked into my bag, desk, car, etc.”

FAQs

Should I use these or the tonic? What’s the difference?  

We originally created these wipes as a way for customers to sample our Essential Face Tonic—only to find out that they were a huge hit in and of themselves! We like using our tonic on a cotton round when at home, and reaching for a face wipe when we need a quick skin reset—after the gym, work, a long flight, a late night, or on the go.

Do these remove makeup?  

You bet! These mighty little wipes effectively remove sweat, grime, SPF and makeup, including eye liner, eye shadow, and mascara.

Can I use these on my body?  

Though we designed our Essential Face Wipes with the face in mind, they are perfectly safe to use on the neck, chest, underarms, or anywhere else that needs a quick refresh in a pinch.

Do these contain fragrance?  

Our Essential Face Wipes have a fresh, herbal aroma that comes entirely from real plant extracts—zero synthetic fragrances.

Are these pregnancy-safe?  

Our face wipes contain Willow Bark, a natural source of salicylic acid (a type of BHA). While salicylic acid is an ingredient typically avoided during pregnancy, it is included in this product at a very low amount. 

That said, we always recommend checking in with your healthcare provider about ingredient lists and any new products during pregnancy.

What if I don’t love it?  

We totally understand that skincare is not one-size-fits-all and that everyone’s skin is unique. If you are not satisfied with your Ursa Major products, you may return your product for a full refund or store credit within 30 days of receiving your order.

Do you offer free shipping?  

We happily offer free standard shipping via DHL/USPS for all domestic orders $40+ placed on our website. Orders below $40 will ship via DHL/USPS for a flat $7 fee. 

How do I start a return?  

Super easy! Just head on over to our Returns Portal, where you’ll just need your order number (the one starting with UM) and your email address or zip code to get started.

    Teen bathroom must have

    These are great. I leave these in the teen bathroom and they all magically disappear and faces are washed. Face clarity looks good with minimal effort. They smell nice too. Reminds me of a Vermont meadow.

    THE best wipes hands down

    I’ve used a lot of different face wipes in my life, but these are by far the best! They truly leave my skin feeling both clean and moisturized without any tackiness. The scent is refreshing and I love that my skin doesn’t feel dried out after using it. I love to use one after flying. especially as the airport AC and plane air really dries out the skin and leaves a lot of impurities around.
