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.
