'THE WORD CANCER IS SCARY - I'M SO GLAD I SPOTTED THE SIGNS'

After over 20 years in the pop industry, Atomic Kitten’s Natasha Hamilton needed a new challenge and decided to train as a skin care specialist.

"I saw this mark, about half the size of a penny," recalls Natasha. "It wasn't a mole, just a slightly raised, dry, scaly patch of skin that looked a little bit sore. I said, 'Mum, that wasn't there last time I saw you how long have you had it?'
