Breast cancer survivor gives free makeovers to patients

Natalie Crawford was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 28 and, as a result, lost her breasts, ovaries and hair.

鈥淚t鈥檚 those major things that make you a woman, that are getting taken away from you one by one,鈥� said Natalie.

Natalie now offers free makeovers to other women living with cancer.

"Your hair gets taken away from you. Your breasts that make you a woman and a mother get taken. It's those major things that are getting taken away from you one by one."

鈥淭o have your make-up done, even just for a day, just makes you feel a little bit normal,鈥� said the 28-year-old.

According to research by Cancer Research UK, 2,200 women under 40 are diagnosed with breast cancer each year in the UK.
