The woman using make-up and manicures to empower London鈥檚 vulnerable women

Growing up in Iran in the '80s, Roxana couldn鈥檛 wear make-up. She - along with other women - were often physically and publicly forced to remove it. But since moving to London, Roxana has embraced being able to wear cosmetics and actually uses the products to help others. She now runs 鈥榩amper days鈥� in the capital鈥檚 day centres, helping women from vulnerable backgrounds find inner strength and regrow their confidence - one makeover at a time.
