Cherish Beauty is a small, personal beauty studio on Rimu Road at Raumati Beach, looking after the Kapiti Coast since 1996 under the motto 'Personal Beauty with Grace and Style'. The business works under the banner of 'Your Health & Wellbeing', which explains its unusual mix: hands-on beauty treatments in the studio, alongside professional grade homeopathic HCG weight-loss products supported by a full dietary programme.
The treatment menu centres on nails — full acrylic and gel sets, backfills, and Shellac or Gelish manicures and spa pedicures — with brow shaping, lash tinting and facial waxing rounding things out. Nearly three decades of continuous practice sits behind every appointment, and customers can read years of testimonials on the studio's website. Bookings are made the personal way: text or call and a time is arranged directly.
Finding the studio is easy. Drive in by the bike sign on Rimu Road and use the large private car park at the rear — ample parking, no hunting for a street space. Whether you are settling in for a fresh full set of nails, a quick brow shape, or starting a structured weight-loss plan, the approach is the same unhurried, personal one the studio has offered since 1996.
On Rimu Road at Raumati Beach, a bike sign marks the drive into Cherish Beauty, a small studio that has been looking after the Kapiti Coast since 1996. The motto on its website — 'Personal Beauty with Grace and Style' — captures the tone of the place: unhurried appointments, careful, practiced work, and a welcome that feels personal rather than processed. The broader banner the business works under is 'Your Health & Wellbeing', which explains why a nail studio also stocks a full weight-loss programme.
Nearly three decades of continuous service is rare in the beauty industry, and Cherish Beauty wears it as a quiet credential: 'Excellence in Nail Design & Care Since 1996'. Customers who want a sense of what to expect can read through the testimonials the studio publishes on its website — years of them, from people who keep coming back.
Nail work is the heart of the studio. A full set of acrylic or gel nails is the classic appointment, shaped and finished with the assurance that comes from long practice. Existing sets are kept looking sharp with a backfill, and for clients who prefer colour that lasts, the studio works with Shellac and Gelish — long-wear polish systems known for holding their gloss for weeks rather than days. Both are offered as a manicure and as a spa pedicure, so hands and feet can be matched in a single visit.
The smaller treatments fill out the picture. A brow shape tidies and defines; a lash tint darkens the natural lashes without the need for extensions; and the two can be combined into one efficient appointment. Quick chin or lip waxing rounds off the menu — the kind of treatment that slots neatly into a lunch hour, but is done with the same care as the nail work.
The other side of Cherish Beauty's work is weight management. The studio supplies professional grade homeopathic HCG drops and pellets — 'Natural & Quick Weight Loss' products — along with a herbal slimming tea, and crucially, the structured diet that makes the programme work. This is no casual add-on: the website dedicates entire sections to HCG FAQs, recipes and success tips.
The plan runs in three phases. The first is a short, almost indulgent two-day loading phase of favourite high-fat, high-calorie foods, which sets the body up for the metabolic changes ahead. The second is the core of the programme — running from day 3 to day 21, or day 3 to day 42 depending on the plan chosen — when meals are carefully moderated to the right calorie levels, with charting and support provided to help clients stay strictly on track. The third phase is maintenance: the HCG stops, but food remains moderated while the metabolism stabilises, so the lost weight stays lost. Calories can be gradually raised as the body adjusts, and the site's HCG recipes are built to make each stage easier to follow.
Ordering is straightforward. Text the studio, email, or send the order through the website's contact form, and the drops, pellets or tea are arranged from there.
Cherish Beauty sits on Rimu Road in Raumati Beach — drive through at the bike sign and there is a large private car park at the rear, with ample parking, so no circling the street for a space. Appointments are made the personal way: text or call 021 032 8040 and a time is arranged directly.
That directness is part of the charm. There is no booking app to navigate and no call centre — just a practitioner who has been doing this work on the Kapiti Coast for decades, whether the visit is for a full set of nails before a big occasion, a brow shape between errands, or the first day of a weight-loss programme with real structure behind it.
Nearly thirty years on, the promise hasn't changed: personal beauty, delivered with grace and style.
