Vote for Nicola
She is the epiotomy of an individual, who would help an absolute stranger if it was in her power: And that is EXACTLY what she did for me. A couple of months ago I was asked to model for the SPCA Hawke's Bay Fashion Show. I am NOT very make-up savy at all. But, because of the charitabl nature of the show models had to do their own make-up and hair. The week before the show I went into the Body Shop with a friend. During the visit my friend enquired about the show. Overhearing our conversation (And my miniature panic attack!), Nicola offered, FREE of charge, to do my make-up!
A week later she did a GREAT job. I felt absolutely beautiful. I wanted to get her something BUT she refused. All she asked for was a photograph. A true selfless act of kindness!
Thanks Nicola!
