The Summer Olympic Games are another reason to take a closer look at our heroines who bring medals to their country. It became interesting for us to compare their images with and without cosmetics. Let’s go!
Dina and Arina Averina
It seems that the whole country knows the names of these twins now! Everyone was especially imbued with the story of Dina, who undeservedly lost her gold medal in gymnastics, which, by tradition, is considered the main sports pride of Russia. Well, let’s not be sad again. It is better to note that the girls look much younger than their 20-something years. Or rather, just like teenagers. What with cosmetics, what without – the sisters are very lucky with genetics, aren’t they?
Sofia Pozdnyakova
Saber fencer Sofia Pozdnyakova received two gold medals in 2021: for the individual and team championships. Looking at her, we understand: big sport is not a hindrance to femininity and beauty! Without makeup (look at the photo from the awards), the girl looks just fine. Eyes shine, skin glows – victory works better than a highlighter 🙂 But cosmetics do not spoil it either. In wedding photos, Sofia looks very romantic: the makeup artist skillfully emphasized her eyes, cheekbones, and eyebrows. Makeup doesn’t look overdone!
Angelina Melnikova
Gymnast Angelina Melnikova brought one gold (artistic gymnastics: team all-around) and two bronze medals (artistic gymnastics: individual all-around and floor exercises) from Tokyo. In the photo without makeup, we see very well-defined eyebrows and healthy skin with a delicate blush. Apparently, classes in the gym are “to blame” for fresh beauty, because sports normalize blood circulation. We immediately wanted to go for a run, and you?
By the way, the girl’s make-up for performances is very neat: bright lips, medium intensity contouring, and almost imperceptible smoky eyes. Usually, gymnasts look much brighter!
Lilia Akhaimova
Lilia Akhaimova (also a gymnast) brought the ROC (Russian Olympic Committee) team a gold medal in the team all-around in artistic gymnastics. Honestly, in our opinion, Lilia looks great without makeup. “Angles of Jolie” will be the envy of many who dream of an expressive jaw. And small dark circles around the eyes from lack of sleep or too hard training are easy to mask with concealer, if necessary, which the girl does when there is time and mood.
Sophia the Great
The saber fencer (namely, that is what saber fencers are called) Sofya Velikaya earned gold in the team and silver in the individual championship. By the way, did you know that she is already over 35 years old? Meanwhile, Sophia can give odds to peers even without decorative cosmetics! Smooth skin with a good tone, an open look – you just want to admire it! And the makeup turns the athlete into a real femme fatale, majestic and strict.
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova became the champion in mixed doubles tennis at the Tokyo Olympics. Of course, she does not use makeup on the court, but this does not prevent her from shining in all the photographs. Check it out for yourself: on her Instagram (a social network recognized as extremist and banned on the territory of the Russian Federation), photos from training and competitions make up the majority of the content (and we don’t mind).
Too accent makeup Pavlyuchenkova does not like. She has enough minimalism! Just look how fashionable wet finish on lips and eyelids suits her. A little eyeliner, careless styling – and the image are ready! Get armed.
Svetlana Kolesnichenko
Here’s who you definitely can’t recognize without makeup, so these are our brilliant synchronized swimmers. Svetlana Kolesnichenko, the gold medalist in pair synchronized swimming, looks like a very young girl. Golden shade of hair, clean face, perky smile – well, just a Russian beauty! But for performances, the girl, as they say, “tightly” fills her hair with varnish or gel so that not a single hair breaks out, draws active arrows, and at the same time emphasizes her lips. Still would! Everything should look bright, catchy, and noticeable from the stands. genre law.
Svetlana Romashina
Svetlana Romashina is a partner of Svetlana Kolesnichenko and, accordingly, the owner of a gold medal for a duet in synchronized swimming. The photo from the performance clearly shows the active professional make-up necessary to create a “spider” image: do not forget that not only the professionalism, but also the artistry of the participants is evaluated at the competitions. And the make-up scheme was specially developed for the Olympic Games by the make-up artists of one of the leading cosmetic brands. Look at the difference: without contouring, shadows, lipstick, and everything else, Svetlana strikes with her tenderness. Mastery of reincarnation as it is.
