Beauty knows no bounds. Diandra Forrest can attest to that statement because she is a model with albinism who just recently snagged the most coveted role for one of the most biggest beauty brands across the country: she is the newest face for Wet n Wild.
Diandra Forrest has made beauty history, she is the first model with albinism to achieve a major role in a national campaign. Aside from that major win, she has also been in amazing fashion shows like Vivienne Westwood, was in a Beyoncé music video, and even hosted her own Ted Talk.

Diandra landing this account is a big win for people with albinism and women of color in general.
“There are a lot more women of color being represented in a beautiful light,” she told Glamour. “There weren’t for a while, and even just different looking people [you’re seeing a lot more of] — like Winnie Harlow, who has vitiligo. The more models there are with different looks, the more role models there will be. And I think that’s great.”
Not only is Diandra a badass model, she is also a kickass mom. Is there anything she can’t do? She brought her cute baby girl Rain on the catwalk with her during the Gypsy Sport fashion show.
