So, once and for all, we'll put an end to it, I'll update you, of course," she wrote.
Elmakis has recently been in the headlines for various controversies. During a vacation in Spain, she posted a series of stories expressing her negative feelings about the local attitude, stating, "Oh Barcelona, Barcelona, because you are so beautiful and have everything, you allow yourself to be antisemitic and insolent." This incident followed public criticism she received for launching her own "slushie" brand in collaboration with "Sweetime." The venture was mocked on social media due to what users considered exorbitant prices and excessive commercialization of her reality TV fame.
Elmakis defended her business initiatives, stating she was not ashamed of any work or business venture. Initial estimates projected her earnings from the slushie brand to be between 40,000 and 80,000 shekels, plus royalties on each unit sold.

Despite the criticism and controversies, Elmakis appears undeterred, continuing to share her personal life and choices with her followers, including this recent cosmetic change.
