Aiesha Robinson (seen left, right, and inset with one of her campaign images), 29, from Montreal in  Canada, was diagnosed with vitiligo in 2007, a skin condition that sees sufferers develop white patches on their skin caused by the loss of pigmentation. Aiesha says years of cruel name-calling by bullies who compared her to a cow and told her she'd been cursed drove her to the brink of suicide in 2014, but that her 'wise' older brother Jamie encouraged her to learn to accept herself. Since then Aiesha has founded her own non-profit - and seen her face on billboards in New York after being approached to be a face of makeup brand Dermablend.
