Experience

Valeriya first started her career as a fellow for Health and Real Simple way back in the day, when she was introduced to the world of beauty writing and fell in love — quickly and deeply, truly head over heels. From there she spent about two years at Coveteur, working her way up from Intern to Fellow and finally, Assistant. She's been freelancing for a while now, and it gives her the perfect amount of freedom to tackle any topic and experience all that the editorial world has to offer. She loves makeup, so getting to write for a publication like InStyle is definitely legendary in her book. Beauty is such a complex and diverse world, she is honored to be able to make even a small mark on it.

Education
