hello AQUA


Finally, a premium hair and skincare and beauty clinic right in the centre of Truro.

AQUA - I welcome you!

“AQUA is like nothing you’ve ever seen”

AQUA specialise in premium skincare and beauty. Based next to Starbucks in Truro the clinic officially opened on April 9th 2014 and I was in there as quickly as possible!

At the front of the clean and bright store is a range of high-end make-up and skincare products including Illamasqua make-up, O.P.I. Nail Lacquer, Millie Mackintosh (Made in Chelsea star) Lashes, HD Brows, Rodial Skincare and Skinceuticals. Well I couldn’t resist buying some product and went with an Illamasqua lip liner which I had been meaning to get for a while (the colour I got was Indecent - review to come) and I will definitely be going back for more. With products ranging in price there is something there for everyone who is looking to invest in their skin.

As well as selling wonderful skincare and beauty AQUA offer a wide range of beauty treatments. I chose to go with HD Brows (partly because I've always wanted to try HD Brows and also because my brows really needed doing!). The treatment involved an initial consultation to discuss how I wanted my brows to look. Then I went into the treatment room, it was bright with calming music. I lay down on the bed, which was so comfortable! The first part of the treatment was the tint (patch test required) that darkened my brows ever so slightly. Next came the shaping! HD Brows uses a mix of waxing, threading and tweezing to achieve flawlessly shaped brows. After the shaping was over and the calming gel was used to close my pores and soothe my skin they applied HD make-up to cover any redness. I really liked that as nobody wants the awkward red skinned walk of shame out of the salon now do they? I could actually leave without worrying about people seeing that I’d just had my brows done! Marvellous!

Overall I was so pleased with my time in AQUA. The staff were all so friendly and I really felt in safe hands with my beautician. It is safe to say I will be back there very soon to try out more of their treatments and to buy more products!
