Nicole Estelle Faria (born 9 February 1990) is an Indian supermodel and actress from Bangalore who won the Miss Earth 2010. Faria is the first woman from India to win Miss Earth.

Faria first got into the world of fashion as a fifteen-year-old, working in the industry in Delhi and Mumbai, and in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Since the international Miss Earth pageant, she has gotten opportunities to break into Bollywood. In an interview, she was asked how her life has changed after winning the Miss Earth 2010 and she replied: "It has changed a lot — drastically. Right after the win, I started getting better work and more work. The quality of work shot up to the stars. And I have met so many new people, so many nice, very warm-hearted people. I have got to travel the world, see more places, get a taste of different cultures and traditions, which is very satisfying for me." She has posed for fashion magazines like Elle, Cosmopolitan, Vogue among others. She has also walked the ramp in the Lakme Fashion Week, Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, and Colombo Fashion Week.

In November 2010, Faria was featured in a television commercial on air by the HP Personal Systems for its snap-on cover notebooks, called "The Computer is Personal Again" campaign.
