Will Ukraine let me in if they see I've been in Russia first?

I am planning a trip through Russia so I have to get the visa in my own country (Australia). But then I plan to go to Ukraine and I can get a visa upon arrival (if under 15 days). Is there any risk that they would not allow me in? I'm just a tourist although I am of Ukrainian background and have relatives in Ukraine that I will be visiting.

There is no risk. Even Russian citizens are allowed to visit Ukraine, so why would somebody who has visited Russia be not allowed to enter the country?..

In addition, even citizens of Ukraine get to travel to Russia. Citizens of both countries can visit each other for 90 days visa free. So yeah, no risk as Neusser said!

Ukraine doesn't practice prohibiting people who have ever visited any other country entrance to its territory.
The only thing you should keep in mind is that if you'll during your visit to Russian Federation enter the occupied territories, such as the Crimean peninsula or part of Donbas behind so-called separation line from the Russian territory, it'll be considered an illegal border crossing and then you'll be either denied entrance to Ukraine or arrested.
