Why It’s Special
Deeply nourishing
This daily cream delivers a dose of skin nutrients, with antioxidants, vitamins A, C, and E, and essential fatty acids like omega 3, 6, 7, and 9 oils. Whether you use it day or night (or both), your skin will thank you.
Absorbs on contact
Golden Hour is the Goldilocks of moisturizing creams—not too heavy, not too light. Its fast-absorbing water-based formula hydrates deeply, leaving no greasy residue behind, just oh-so-soft skin.
Gentle on all skin
We let clean actives do what they do best without adding unnecessary chemicals or unnatural scents. The result is a gentle formula that evens skin tone and soothes eczema-prone skin.
Eases fine lines
Ingredients like Calendula, Sea Buckthorn, and Black Currant help skin retain moisture, firmness, and elasticity, supporting a naturally smooth, lively look for well-loved skin.
Refreshingly Different
Nothing to hide here. Just naturally awesome ingredients that help you achieve your healthiest, happiest skin.

Reach for Golden Hour in the morning, as a luxurious night cream, or anytime in between. Apply after cleansing and toning (and after any serums you might use).
Q: Is Golden Hour Recovery Cream the moisturizer for me?
A: We’ve found Golden Hour Recovery Cream to be a great fit for all ages and skin types. Golden Hour has a midweight texture, and works wonders as a replenishing daily moisturizer, or as a recovery cream for skin that’s been out in the elements.
Those with particularly dry, sensitive, or mature skin may also enjoy our thicker Alpine Rich Cream for extra hydration and barrier support.
If you have oily to combination skin, or your skin simply craves a lighter touch, Fortifying Gel Moisturizer is another great option.
Q: How and when do I use this product?
A: Thanks to a water-based formula that absorbs quickly without a trace of heaviness or greasy residue, Golden Hour might quickly become your new favorite moisturizer. Use it as a daily moisturizer after cleansing and toning (or any serums you might use), as a luxurious night cream, or anytime your skin needs extra TLC.
Don’t forget to pair Golden Hour with SPF protection (we’re partial to our Force Field SPF 30) before heading outdoors.
Q: Can I use Golden Hour around the eye area?
A: Of course! Golden Hour is completely safe for use around the delicate eye area and highly effective for moisturizing this region of the skin. You may also be interested in our eye-specific Forest Alchemy Eye Cream—which works to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, ease up dark circles, de-puff, and hydrate.
Q: How do I recycle this product?
A: When you run out, just give the glass jar a rinse and recycle it at home. The lid is not widely recyclable at this time.
Q: What is the aroma?
A: A mild blend of sweet neroli, sour rose, and spicy sandalwood.
Golden Hour Recovery Cream Reviews
- Julie B.Verified BuyerReviewingGolden Hour Recovery CreamI recommend this productAGE RANGE 50's+SKIN TYPE DrySKIN CONCERN DrynessRated 5 out of 5 stars2/22/25So good!
I love this face cream! I have been struggling to find the right hydration without using too many serums, oils, eye creams.....I've been looking for a single solution and Ursa Major fits the bill. I use it at night and in the morning for 24 moisture and it feels great. I am 60 years old with sun damaged skin and several skin cancer removals, this cream seems to minimize the scarring and keeps my skin from itching and feeling too tight.
Thank you!

I was on the fence for literally years, before finally trying Golden Hour Recovery Cream, and I wish wish wish I didn’t wait. Such a great product. So fresh, truly moisturizing (doesn’t sit on the skin but soaks in) and literally saves my dry skin. I also have very sensitive skin and have not had issues. Highly recommend!
Ursa Major Skincare2/20/25Hi Heather! Thrilled you've finally found your way to Golden Hour! It's so lovely to hear how perfectly it's working for your sensitive skin, providing that deep moisture without any irritation. The way you describe it sinking right in (rather than sitting on top) is exactly what we aimed for when creating this formula!! Thank you for sharing your journey with us, and we're so happy you're now part of our crew ✨💫
