Appearance-wise there isn't much difference between similarly-sized Russian and Ukrainian cities. What is often described as the 'Ukrainian' look is also very prevalent in the South of Russia (Krasnodar, Volgograd, Voronezh, Rostov-na-Donu). I've noticed that a lot of Americans tend to prefer that southern/Ukrainian look, especially those who like curvy girls and big asses.
If you're after barbie dolls (high fashion, slim models with lots of makeup), you'll probably only find them in Moscow because that is the only city with enough wealth to support that kind of lifestyle. In other cities, including St. Petersburg, they're usually part of the 'elite' and therefore not very accessible.
If you're planning a short/medium-term trip and don't understand the language and culture, Ukraine is probably a better option. Small-city girls are easier to understand and the hotter ones aren't drawn away from Kiev/Odessa because those are already the largest and most developed cities in Ukraine. The political and economic situation in Ukraine makes for a lot of desperate women, i.e. foreign god factor. There isn't a need to worry about visas and registration in Ukraine.
Russia has better prospects for the long term, including work and long-term relationships. I find them more intellectual and easier to have a deep connection with; obviously that's superfluous if you're only looking for a two-week fling. With Ukrainians I find I'm usually talking to them, not with them. After saying that, some men prefer their women that way and only really want their wife to be arm candy. And I have nothing against that, just pointing it out so you know how/why I've formed my preferences.
The three-date rule is prevalent in both countries. You'll find some club rats in every city who are willing to break that rule, especially Moscow but I think that's just a function of its population (huge city and all of its sluts converge on its nightclubs each weekend).
In Ukraine it's important to have a story about why you're visiting the country, otherwise they'll think you're a sex tourist. It can't be "to study Russian" because that doesn't make any sense to them, and saying that you're living there will make them think you're insane. I usually say I'm looking for IT specialists. The country doesn't have much else to offer from a business perspective.
