About Us

The Aphrodité Beauty Experience

Welcome to Aphrodité Beauty, proudly entering our 16th year of business in Gibraltar. Located in the heart of Main Street, our salon has become synonymous with quality, excellence, and a welcoming atmosphere.

Aphrodité Beauty is owned by Helen Russo, a Cumbrian who first visited Gibraltar from the Lake District in 2009. Feeling embraced by the local community, she quickly made Gibraltar her home and opened her first salon at Ocean Village. The salon quickly gained a reputation for excellence, prompting Helen to expand and relocate to a prominent, central location, where Aphrodité Beauty continues to thrive.

Helen leads a long-standing, professional, and friendly team of award-winning skincare and beauty specialists, including MASCED-trained experts, who are continually training to remain at the forefront of the beauty industry. As part of the skincare elite, they deliver advanced, personalised treatments with expertise, precision, and genuine care.

Our team offers a comprehensive range of services, including:

Image Skincare treatments
Laser hair removal
Laser Tattoo removal
Laser fungal nail treatment

Shellac manicures and pedicures

Plus a wide variety of holistic and beauty treatments
