I won’t say how most like to say, that our relationships were perfect from the very beginning. No, they weren’t perfect. But that doesn't matter. What's matter is that we are still here today, together, celebrating love and enjoying life together, even if it is not always perfect.

Happy Anniversary Mon Cheri🤍

Do you believe in signs?

I found this postcard 1 day before getting married in a typical New York City gift shop. I found it oddly interesting that it was there, laying around all souvenirs and postcards related only to the Big Apple.

Paris in New York. We met in New York but we both were somehow attached to Paris. I am in my heart, my whole life. And him born Parisian.

Only one postcard...The scene from Paris. Very romantic and a bit dramatic like all the old-school French movies I grew up on.

Another sign is our number, the one that was given to us in City Hall. 611. Fred proposed to me on June 11th in Paris.

If I ever had doubts about getting married, they were all gone after those little signs. And it felt right.. Grateful to Universe, to you for coming into my life, and to many more wonderful moments together.

Sustainability begins with your Self🌱

Sustainability has always been a big part of my life even before I started to use this term.

It happened that I grew up in a more sustainable environment compared to the one I live in right now. This means now I need to put more work and more thoughts into my everyday choices. But it’s shouldn’t be overwhelming. And you shouldn’t become 100% sustainable (let me share a secret with you - IT’S IMPOSSIBLE in the New World we are living in).

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed when reading about ways to make your daily life more sustainable. If you’re taking your first baby steps towards eco-friendly practices, there’s so much information out there that it’s hard to know where to start. It would be amazing if everyone immediately made all the necessary changes to reduce their carbon footprints, but even small steps count when enough people make them. This isn’t an exhaustive list, but it’s a good start for everyday ways that you can lessen your impact on the environment. Start small, then aim big. 

Check my list of simple steps in a carousel. 👉🏼

Water = Life🤍

But how much you should drink? There are many different opinions.

An average diet of 1,900 calories per day would dictate an intake of 1,900 ml (approximately 64 ounces) of water. However, people interpreted this as a recommendation to drink 1,900 ml of pure water, forgetting the fact that water is also found in abundance in the other liquids and foods we consume (watermelon🍉, cucumber🥒, celery etc.)

I love the 8x8 rule:
eight 8-ounce glasses, which equals about 2 liters, or half a gallon. This is very easy to remember😘

In the past few months, I made some changes here, on my profile, and in my life in general. I became more vulnerable and started to share more of my personal life.

You might ask: “Why, after keeping my life “in secret” for some time now, I would go all out and expose my personal life?”🤔

I WANTED TO OWN THE POWER OF BEING MYSELF! This meant I needed to be more vulnerable.

Vulnerability for a lot can be scary. ‼️Sure it was for me. It can be uncertain, risky, and lead to emotional exposure.

We live in a changed society from the world we knew only few months ago. We live in a world that’s left all us with some element of exposed vulnerability simply because of what we’ve collectively experienced. Whether it’s grief, loss, the impacts of a rapidly changing world, war...

For example, COVID-19 changed how we live and work, how we make decisions, and even how we nurture and grow relationships.

While exposing where you feel insecure can seem a bit like opening up the door to a human malware attack, vulnerability lends itself to more benefits than failure.

Harnessing the power of vulnerability allows you to say what you want, ask for what you need, express your emotions, and celebrate your achievements. Every time you do, you give yourself permission to do it again. Every time you do, you expand that sense of confidence, security, belonging, joy, and growth. With each practice of vulnerability, you’re becoming your true and whole self. Soon, you'll see vulnerability as a strength, not a weakness.
You have the power to change your life, one step at a time👣

Saw these words on my friend's story post and wanted to share them with you!

TO ALL STRONG WOMEN UP THERE! YOU GOT THIS💪🏼🤍

🇺🇦👇🏼
Тіло людини здатне витримати лише 45 одиниць болю, але під час пологів жінка можевитримати до 57 одиниць болю, що еквівалентно 20 зламаних кісток в тілі… ніколи не кажіть жінці, що вона не може чогось зробити - пам‘ятайте, що тільки вона може танцювати з 2 серцями ❤️❤️. Тільки вона може дихати 4 легенями. Тільки їй вдається нести вагу 2 світів у своєму утробі і народити нове життя. Не кажіть жінці що вона на щось на щось не здатна… Тому що вона здатна на все! Завжди пам’ятайте про це!

On this rainy day, I said YES to my wedding band 💍

So excited to marry my best friend🤍

Last week I celebrated my ...th birthday. Can you guess how old I am?😌

STILL CAN’T GET OVER THE BEAUTIFUL SOFT LIGHT IN MY STUDIO✨

THIS POST IS FOR MY FELLOW ESTHETICIANS.
Scroll left.

I want to share with you those two fantastic items I recently discovered. Maybe you heard about them or already own some. But for those who are looking for comfortable all-day in-spa shoes and magnifying tools, those are for sure the ones to check!
I've been testing them for a few weeks already and I am just so so happy with those purchases.

Not sure how is for you, but spending the whole day in the Studio, running between clients, and standing long hours on my feet, has not been that easy. At the end of the day (especially with this hot weather), my feet are tired, swollen, and in pain. Those cute zero grand loafers by are the game changer. I paid only $19.95 in the store. They are made from lightweight grand foam (which makes them waterproof) with breathable ventilation details for all-day comfort. I absolutely love those! They have a variety of colors to choose from.

Another item I would like to share with you is Bio-Therapeutic bt-vision, 2.0. I got them through for $79.
Analyze skin at multiple magnification levels with this amazing tool. The bt-vision 2.0 features an all-new lightweight design, silver ion-infused silicone surfaces, a 9x brighter LED illumination, quick release lens system, detachable elastic headband, and 5 magnification lenses (1X, 1.5X, 2.0X, 2.5X, and 3.5X). Fully adjustable, this magnified viewer is ideal for an up-close and hands-free look at the skin at a level of detail the eyes simply can’t match. The adjustable bright white LED lighting system gives you an even clearer view during the most crucial parts of each service. The bt-vision is excellent for use in the treatment room or retail area when determining the appropriate skin care products and services for individual clients. With sanitation as a priority, it utilizes the latest cutting-edge silver ion technology in all silicone surfaces that come in contact with the skin, including the headrest, nose piece, and arms.

No more ugly unpractical magnifying lamps in your beautiful treatment room🙏🏼🤩

YOU WELCOME😌🤍
