Back from Portland ✨
A work trip, a big event, and an amazing project for Respublika Events — @respublika.events and once again I felt how deeply I love what I do.

Creating these looks, bringing ideas to life, working with the body as a canvas — this is what truly inspires me and fills my heart 🤍

From the bottom of my heart, thank you @mariakolotun for trusting me and inviting me to bring your vision to life on the models’ bodies.

Huge thanks to @litcosmetics for the most beautiful glitters in the world ✨
I’ve been working with them for over 5 years, and I’m always in love with the quality and the results.

Thank you to my incredible models @anastejsii — you are so beautiful and real hero.
Thank you to my assistant @vika_komarik — I couldn’t have done this without you 🤍

And a very special thank you to my close person…
For your support, your faith in me, and for helping with costumes, headpieces, and so much more. You are my strength.

Also, a big thank you to my family — for always believing in me and supporting my journey 🤍

I’m truly happy doing my job — it inspires me, excites me, and brings me pure joy.
I wish for many more projects where I can express my creativity and share my vision ✨

Ps-I’ll be sharing more of my work from this event in the next Reels and posts ✨

“Light in the Dark” 🪽✨

An angel with horns, a little darkness, and a heart full of light.

This Halloween, I felt drawn to creating something beyond fear and horror. Even with horns and dragon-inspired details, I wanted my character to carry kindness, light, and positive energy.

Thank you to EBA Performance Makeup, especially Jaro, and to MEL Products and Al Apone for inviting me to create at your Comic-Con booth. I’m so grateful for your trust and the opportunity to bring my imagination to life.

To my beautiful model: thank you for your patience, strength, and for enduring every step of this transformation. You helped turn my vision into something real. 🤍

Thank you to my family for caring so much and cheering me on. And to my love, who saw all the preparation, the late nights, and every little detail behind this character—thank you for your patience, love, and support.

Creativity is part of who I am. I can’t imagine my life without it, and I hope the future brings more opportunities to create the fantasy characters I love so deeply.

This Halloween, I was in my creative element—and that made me truly happy. 🤍

What we wear says little about who we are. Your true worth is in who you are and the kindness you carry in your heart. ❤️

I blinked… and somehow ended up in Las Vegas for the third time this month. ✈️
#lasvegas #worktravel by @bessaravik

Three inspiring days at Cosmoprof Las Vegas! ✨

I was so happy to visit this exhibition for the first time and experience its incredible scale and energy. It was fascinating to discover new brands, explore innovative products, and see how one of the beauty industry’s biggest trade shows comes together.

I realized that this event is mainly focused on manufacturers, distributors, and large-scale business partnerships, so it’s not quite the platform where I can fully showcase my creativity as a makeup artist.

My passion is creating beauty through makeup, hairstyling, special effects, body painting, and fantasy looks. That’s why I’ll continue looking for exhibitions and events where I can demonstrate my artistry, connect with other creatives, and inspire people through my work.

Still, I’m truly grateful for these three days in Las Vegas. They reminded me how much I love this industry, the creative atmosphere, and the excitement of discovering something new.

Looking forward to the next adventure! 💄✨ by @bessaravik

I’ve been thinking about this lately…

Working in television for many years, I had the privilege of leading large beauty teams on big productions. One thing I always admired was people who never stopped learning and growing.

I’ve never seen talented people as competition. To me, they’re an inspiration. Watching someone become better at what they do has always made me want them on my team.

Now I’m building my life and career here in the U.S., and one of my biggest dreams is to create an incredible team again for a truly amazing project. The project isn’t here yet, and neither is the team—but I believe the right people find each other at the right time.

Until then, I just want to share the talented hairstylist who made me feel beautiful for my birthday. Grateful to be surrounded by passionate people. 🤍
