Madilyn Sonter is a Registered Nurse based in Brisbane, Australia.

Today on the podcast, I had the privilege of talking with Maddy about her business, The Functional Skin Studio, and how she is remaining compliant to the regulations in Queensland.

Maddy and I discuss her pathway from Registered Nurse to business owner, mum to skin care developer.

The ability to pivot in the cosmetic space is what keeps Maddy one step ahead of her competitors. However, it is her own lived experiences of acne, sensitive skin and gut that has enabled Maddy to look at the skin space differently. This has given her a unique perspective on how she treats and manages skin, acne and the gut.

Maddy’s skin care range, The Functional Skin, is a green, clean and effective range for anyone who has had problematic skin.

Add to this mix, two young boys, a house renovation, and you have one busy nurse!
