Ursa Major Vital Spring Hydration Mask

Editor's Take

For once, silicone-free does not mean short on slip: this is a thoughtful hydration mask, though the essential-oil bouquet narrows its audience.

Four-pillar formula scores

• Performance: 7.4 / 10
• Innovative Ingredients: 6.8 / 10
• Clean Standards: 10.0 / 10
• Formula Sustainability: 9.5 / 10

The Verdict

The olive-derived base, glycerin, and Sodium Hyaluronate give dry hair credible hydration, while Pullulan leaves a light smoothing film without silicone. Its plant-forward, biodegradable profile is unusually strong, although the long essential-oil blend may not suit fragrance-sensitive scalps. A credible silicone-free mask for softness and moisture, not a heavy-duty repair treatment.
