A model who was compared to a COW by strangers because of her skin condition has become the face of a make up brand - and now features on billboards across the US.
Aiesha Robinson, 29, was diagnosed with vitiligo in 2007, a skin condition in which large white patches develop all over the body due to a loss of pigmentation.
She was an amateur model before her diagnosis but the condition, which affects her hands, elbows and face, had a severe impact on her self-confidence.
