Owner & Premier Esthetician
I was born & raised in the Southern part of Russia. Women in Southern Russia have always been known to take phenomenal care of their skin. Throughout the 70s and 80s, we didn’t have much variety to choose from when it came to skin care products. However, we did have access to affordable facial spas around us. I’ll never forget the first facial I ever had at age 16. My mom took me to the facial spa so that I could get a better understanding of the importance of a skin care routine. I absolutely fell in love with the atmosphere, music, and smell of that facial room. At that moment, my passion began!
I immediately pursued my passions and graduated from the renowned Skin Care and Makeup School, RUPK, in Rostov, Russia in 1990. I have always believed that healthy and clear skin is essential for the confidence and well-being of every person. Inspired by a strong desire to help others to achieve their skin’s potential to be beautiful, I built my clinical skin care practice into one of the first medical spas in Russia. Working with Russia’s top dermatologists opened up an invaluable opportunity for growth and learning unique techniques for most effective facial treatments.
In 2000, I traveled to Georgia from Russia, where I quickly found a position at Skin Care by Gabriela. I continue to serve people, nurture them, and advise them on skin care. My thorough knowledge of skin care and my love for working with people have been key to my client’s satisfaction. My greatest joy is hearing about the treatments that changed their lives.
As the years went on, I learned about the art of business from my husband, Arthur. My passion extended as I became an owner of Skin Care by Gabriela. I gained knowledge of skincare products ingredients and how they interacted with all different skin types. That knowledge and experience guided me and my daughter, Julia, to develop the Navinka skin brand. It has been a continuous journey of research and education to learn about the science behind all skin types. It’s so gratifying when I see improvements in my client‘s skin by following a customized routine and using correct products.
