“It’s been a long freakin’ time since I have been impressed by a spa treatment, and I’ve been to some of the best spas in the country, if not the world. But leave it to Elina Skin Care to change all of that. Elina isn’t some lavish, chichi spa filled with mixed nuts, strawberry-infused water and the essence of eucalyptus. Rather it’s a little room, tucked away in a little store front on Chicago’s luxurious Oak Street. Perhaps one of Chicago’s best kept little secrets. Until now.

Elina Fedotova is a European-trained cosmetic chemist, herbalist and aesthetician who formulates and hand blends her own 100% organic skin care products. Her formulas contain superior, all natural ingredients and are sold at her clinics in Chicago, Kalamazoo, Michigan and 60 other high end salons and doctors offices in the U.S. and abroad. The aesthticians tailor each facial to meet the needs of your skin type. Elina believes that “With the proper care and treatment, people can have beautiful skin for life without Botox or plastic surgery,” and I’m a believer. My skin has never felt so healthy and smooth. All of the aestheticians are trained to follow a strict protocol—from the cleansing process and steam to the laser treatment and diamond peel. The experience is incredible and the results are even better. I truly can’t wait for my next treatment!!”

“I noticed a significant difference with Ambra-Lift. I love the product, its fantastic! I'd highly recommend it.”

“ Dear Cara,

I just wanted to let you know that my Elite formula arrived today. I can't wait to get properly into my Elina regime. I am so impressed with the beautiful ingredients in this cream. It contains all the ingredients I look for in a cream; rose hips oil, soybean liposomes, DMAE, silk amino acids, MSM, niacinamide, vitamins A, C and E and hyaluronic acid. I love the addition of semi-precious stones and the other ingredients as well. I even love the packaging and how it says it is Elina's most magical cream. My skin looked great when I was using the sample, it is a rich formula, but I try to use less... which is difficult as I love the pampering feel of it …

Thank you so much for excellent customer care. I will be in touch soon as I am running out of the Ambra Lift which I use all over face and neck in the evening. ”

“ I would like to share a happy-ending story, cliché but always nice as personal experience.

Since my teens I have had skin problems: they were worse or they became better but they always stayed with me, and despite all my efforts – believe me, I spent much time and money trying to improve my appearance – just from the first look at me one could always notice there was something wrong.

I tried to pretend that it was not a problem, following the philosophy “If you cannot change something, change your attitude to it.” Instead of thinking it could be worse I started thinking what I could do to make it better. My skin could have been like this forever but luckily one day I met Elina, and that meeting has changed everything! I can feel my skin breathing! Now I get so many compliments just walking along the street! I can approach a mirror without any fears, but rather with curiosity. My skin that was causing pain and aching within my body became calm, and is looking good!!! And all of that because of Elina – thank you SO MUCH!!!

Elina has a truly personal attitude towards each client. Many people come to her with something special and unique, often with a long record of previous attempts, most of them resulting in nothing, and still everybody hopes to get the same thing – look good, despite all the troubles. And Elina is fantastic in finding the solutions – seems like she could cure anything, finding a key to all the problems one could think of! That is why everybody feels happy at Elina’s clinic, that is why people are always smiling when they are anticipating or remembering their visit there, that is why the place is always filled with laughter and high spirits, and we all enjoy going there so much!

I think Elina has changed not only my look, but also my way of thinking. She is so kind, open, and empathetic. She shares her love for the world so generously, and that has influenced my vision of the universe and our role in it. Elina helped me to be me: to find myself, accept it and believe that everything is possible in this world. I am sure Elina is a real fairy – the one you read about during your childhood – helping, healing, giving you a chance and showing you a new way. ”

“ Dear Elina,

I would like to order two jars of “Elina Anti Wrinkle Liposome Moisturizer.” I have used up my stock and feel that nothing else measures up to this cream. I have often meditated on this and on each occasion I have been assured that this is better than anything is being offered on the market here. Isn’t this wonderful? I thought you might like to know this endorsement for “Upstairs.”

Please send the two jars mentioned above and a please add a third item “the Scar relief Lotion’ – so, all in all three items by airmail and advise by email of date of despatch and price etc. If available could you please include a catalogue of your products so I can show it to my friends. ”

“ I was 55 when I started using Elina’s treatments and products. My skin was losing its elasticity and I had deep creases around my chin. Now, at age 60, my skin looks younger. The looseness under my eyes has firmed up, the creases and wrinkles have smoothed out, and my face is more toned. I recently went to a family reunion and my relatives told me that I looked great and wanted to know what I had done. I assured them I simply use Elina’s products. ”

“ I love your Oil Control and Healing Formula. With your products I was able to stop using several dermatologist prescriptions, and I’ve kept my acne under control. ”

“ I just wanted to tell you how impressed I am with Anti-Wrinkle Liposome Moisturizer, and using nothing else but Elina products. I’m more or less a naturalist so I’m thrilled to have finally found something that actually works, and is entirely natural. ”
