From Prairie to Bottle
Fresh, small-batch skincare inspired by the wildness of Nebraska
What we believe in
Our path has been one of returning — moving away from synthetic formulations to beginning-again at the source. 11 years in the skincare industry has led to this conclusion: everything we need is already provided by the earth. The original alchemist, we are here to listen and learn.

The alchemist
Introducing Prairie Flora, our in-house product line that is handcrafted from herbs sourced from local herbalists, wild foraging, and regional growers whenever possible. Everything is harvested at peak season, and processed in small batches within a month to ensure the most living, bio-available product. NOTHING synthetic is ever used in products! We believe that every single thing you put on your skin is absorbed (and research supports this). Our products are safe enough to eat (although they probably taste terrible).
As the seasons shift, so do the needs of your skin. Prairie Flora is thoughtfully crafted to support you through each season. By working in harmony with the rhythms of nature, we create with intention, honoring the plants, the land, and the people who help bring them to us.
A Commitment to our home
Rooted in deep reverence for the land that sustains life, Sunshine Esthetics donates 1% of every sale to the Solidago Conservancy, supporting the restoration and preservation of Nebraska’s native prairie landscapes. Inspired by the resilience and beauty of the remaining remnant prairie — less than 1% of which still exists today — our work is grounded in protecting the ecosystems that continue to sustain both people and planet.
Plant Encyclopedia
We work with plants that grow in abundance in our region—often overlooked, yet deeply resilient and full of traditional herbal wisdom. Our focus is on honoring what the land offers generously and sustainably.
