The Future of Conscious Beauty: How Award-Winning Clinic Medikah Is Leading Darwin’s Low-Tox Movement

The beauty industry is shifting. Clients no longer want quick fixes or aggressive treatments that compromise health. Instead, they’re searching for conscious, sustainable solutions that deliver results without the chemical overload. At the forefront of this transformation in the Northern Territory is Medikah Skin & Beauty, Darwin’s #1 low-tox clinic.

Founded by Brooke Bolton, Medikah is more than a clinic, it’s a movement leading the way for low-tox beauty longevity in Australia.

A Founder’s Personal Mission

For Brooke, the decision to create a safer approach to skin health wasn’t just professional, it was deeply personal. When her sister was diagnosed with thyroid cancer at just 22, Brooke began questioning what we put on and into our bodies every day.

With over 15 years of dermal therapy experience, she channelled that personal turning point into a mission: to create a results-driven, low-tox alternative to traditional skincare and aesthetics.

Today, Brooke is recognised as a leader in conscious beauty, blending advanced dermal expertise with sustainable, eco-conscious practices. Her philosophy is clear:

“Low-tox beauty isn’t about giving things up. It’s about making smarter, more conscious choices that deliver better results, protect our health, and respect the environment.”

The Skin Vault Membership: A First for Darwin

Brooke’s vision came to life with the Skin Vault Membership, the first program of its kind in Darwin. Designed for long-term results, the membership helps clients stay consistent with treatments that are:

  • Natural yet effective – tailored skincare that nurtures the skin without harsh chemicals.
  • Age-supportive – addressing concerns in a sustainable way that supports longevity.
  • Accessible – giving clients a structured pathway to achieve lasting transformations.

It’s a model that positions Medikah as not just a clinic, but a pioneer of beauty longevity in the Territory.

Recognition for Conscious Leadership

Brooke’s leadership has not gone unnoticed. In 2024, she received the Sustainability Champion Award (Magnify Her Network), cementing her status as a trailblazer in low-tox beauty.

But for Brooke, awards are only a byproduct of her mission. What drives her is changing the way people experience skincare: safe, sustainable, and deeply effective.

2 Mins with Brook Bolton

How do you see the low-tox beauty industry evolving?

“I think we’re on the edge of a real shift. People aren’t satisfied with quick fixes or trend-driven beauty anymore, they’re craving education, transparency, and truth. Clients want to know exactly what they’re putting on their skin and how it impacts their body. That curiosity is only growing, and it’s forcing the industry to answer. The beautiful thing is, we’re seeing more brands create formulations that honour both our hormones and the environment. To me, that’s the future of beauty: skin rituals that are both transformative and deeply respectful of our health and the earth.”

What would you say to people currently using traditional beauty products to encourage them to explore low-tox?

“The reality is, many of the ingredients in conventional beauty are considered ‘safe’ BUT only when looked at in isolation. The truth is, we’re layering three to ten products every single day, then adding household and personal care items on top. That constant exposure builds up in our system and absolutely impacts our hormones. We even know from research that chemicals are being detected in umbilical cord blood, which shows just how far-reaching these toxins can be. Exploring low-tox isn’t about giving up beauty, it’s about choosing beauty that nourishes your body and aligns with the kind of life you want to live. It’s empowerment, not restriction.”

Your top 3 at-home low-tox beauty must-do’s (or don’ts):

“Number one: avoid the ingredients that disrupt both skin and hormones, things like fragrance/parfum, parabens, SLS, formaldehyde releasers, and phthalates. 

Number two: don’t fall for the idea that ‘natural’ automatically means safe or effective. It’s not always the case. 

And number three: lean into ingredients that love your barrier like antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and skin-identical nutrients. When your barrier is healthy and strong, your skin thrives. That’s the kind of daily ritual that feels both luxurious and intentional.”

What’s next for Brooke Bolton?

“For me, it’s about continuing to evolve Medikah Skin into a sanctuary that transforms skin and redefines beauty. My mission is to keep educating and showing both my clients and the wider industry how deeply the endocrine system is connected to skin health. I want to stand with brands that honour hormones, sustainability, and long term skin health, and to keep leading conversations that remind women their skin journey is about so much more than just surface glow. It’s about true transformation, inside and out.”

How has She Knows Business and Angelica Kopec supported your journey?

“I had placed so many limits on myself without even realising it. Angelica has helped me strip those away and see what’s truly possible. She’s created space for me to expand, share my story, and step fully into my role as a leader in this space. Investing in She Knows Business has been one of the most powerful things I’ve done, for my personal growth and for Medikah. I always knew I had a message to share, but Angelica helped me craft it, amplify it, and share it in a way that resonates. It’s been transformational.”
