Biography


My inner calling is to bring beauty to people and to get pleasure out of the process.


Briefly about myself:
I graduated from the Leningrad Construction and Engineering institute, faculty of architecture. Being a creative person I decided to apply myself to a different field – facial design. I completed the course in styling and make-up in the Unona school with the stylist-visagist diploma and later was qualified as a teacher. Several times I took part and won in Russian and international competitions in decorative cosmetics (e.g. «Nevskie berega» in Riga and St Petersburg) and was invited as a judge to the international competition «Nevskie berega» in decorative cosmetics, nail design and hairstyling (make-up nomination).


    I am grateful to my Teachers, World Masters: stilist-visagist Natalia Nikitina and permanent make-up professionals Anna Savina and Anna Zabolotnaya, Biotek, Milano. I really appreciate the help they gave me on the way to myself and the possibility to apply my creative skills and unique vision in visage and permanent make-up.



    As part of the exchange program I went to Paris to study in the school of make-up and visage. I was collaborating with famous fashion agencies, photo and TV studios (e.g. in several TV series – «Cobra», «Poor Nastya» – and in a New Year musical show «Old songs about the most important things» with clipmaker Gusev), magazines, fashion shows of St Petersburg designers while working in one of the oldest beauty salons of St Petersburg. In 2004 I graduated from the Biotek school, Milan (in St Petersburg) with the qualification in permanent make-up.



    My knowledge in visage, coloristics, composition and architecture helped me to progress rapidly in my area. In 2009 I received an international qualification with the right of teaching in the main Russian office of Biotek in Moscow. Taking part in the permanent make-up competition «Eye Lid Contour» I received 1st prizes in qualifying championships in 2007, 2008 and 2009. Finally, in 2010 I received the 1st prize in Russia in the international competition «Eye Lid Contour» - the scholarship for studying in Biotek, Milano.


    Currently I am working in the «Unona» beauty salon, teaching permanent make-up in the «Diva» (divashop@rambler.ru) school (Biotek office in the Northwest region of Russia). I am studying Italian as I am taking part in the course in permanent make-up (with the right of teaching of cosmetic tattooing) in Milano Academy as well as working with clients from Russia, Finland, Switzerland and Italy. My clients all have very different backgrounds (show business stars, sportsmen, models, clipmakers, teachers, accountants, etc.) but all of them have the same wish to be attractive and unique.


I am taking part in many projects that have the same purpose – creating BEAUTY… that could once save the world.
I am a creator and that is my destiny.


Sincerely Yours,
Elena Pavlova
