Liz, Val, and Amber were all amazing! My mom, two sisters, mother-in-law, and I had our hair and makeup done, and we couldn't have been happier. They arrived right on time, were so friendly, and made the whole experience stress-free and fun. Our hair and makeup turned out absolutely perfect--everyone was thrilled with the results. Liz did my makeup, and it was flawless, especially the eyeshadow--it was stunning! I would definitely recommend Maui Makeup Artistry to anyone looking for wedding hair and makeup.

Thanks, Marissa!

Coming from Texas, I did a lot of research for vendors across the island. We were flying in to "get Maui'd," so whoever I ended up choosing was based off initial impression. I'm glad I found MMA. From the start, the whole team was very quick to reply to my inquiry & questions - - highly professional all around, proving to be knowledgeable & well-experienced, and they were always easy to communicate & correspond with (very detailed with emails & responsive thru texts). Since it was an elopement/micro-wedding, we requested travel to our AirBnB to makeover 2 ladies: my best friend (the maid of honor) and me (the bride). They assigned us to Marissa, and she was a awesome! I've used several professional makeup artists for various occasions in the past, and Marissa is one of the best from personal experience. With dry skin & sensitive eyes, I've seemingly been a challenge to other MUA's in the past - - tending to flake/peel around parts of my face and my eyes tear up easily. I didn't have any of those problems with Marissa's application. She knew exactly which brushes to use, her technique was amazing, and she carried a nice arsenal of high quality cosmetic products & supplies. I asked for full glam; I wanted drama.... And Marissa delivered! She gave me a beautiful smokey eye and added some nice contours with highlights. Just the right amount of sass. And, it didn't feel heavy at all. It was exactly what I wanted. Our makeup LASTED ALL DAY, despite my ceremony being outdoors. And, as I found my self crying thru a few heartfelt moments (of course), all I needed was a little blotting under the eyes (Marissa gave me a small touch up kit). Through wind, sweat, and tears we still looked fierce! I am so happy with how our makeup turned out! Thank you, Marissa, for making us look & feel so beautiful on the big day!!!

Let me just start off my saying... I was forced to do my own hair and make up for my elopement because it was during the thick of the pandemic and I wasn't able to hire or work with anybody. On the day of my elopement, I was stressed and sweating and cussing up a storm. If you're on the fence about dropping that cash for some hair and make up on your special day -- splurge. Go with Maui Make Up Artistry. Get the full package if you can afford it. It'll not only help you feel at your most beautiful and best, but it'll also save you a ton of stress and headache by having amazing professionals who are experienced and know what they're doing. Anyways, after my husband and I eloped, we still wanted to have our "big wedding" to celebrate with our loved ones. I ended up doing a ton of research then decided to go with Liz and Anna. They were very communicative and great from the start. I was nervous because we were coming from San Francisco and doing a destination wedding in Maui, so I had no time fly over and test things out as much as I had hoped for. I just sent some inspiration photos over and had to trust that they'll get it right. Thankfully, they squeezed me in for a trial run a couple of days before the wedding. I still felt nervous because this didn't allow me any time to make any major changes should I wanted to go with someone else. Thankfully, Liz and Anna were the perfect people to help me and my sister in law for the special day. They knew exactly what to do for both me (Korean) and my sister in law (Chinese)! I went for a more glam and darker, smokier look while my sister in law went for a more natural and subtle glam look. They knew how to do Asian/East Asian make up for both of our Asian features and hair texture. They made both of our hair and make up BULLET PROOF as well. I was nervous about the humidity in Hawaii as both my and sister in law's hair don't hold curls well. Both of our hair and make up held up throughout the entire day. My husband had a pimple on the morning of the wedding! OH NO! Crisis averted. Anna said not to worry and she squeezed in a little touch up for my husband to conceal his little pimple friend. Phew! The cherry on top was how wonderful it was to work with both Liz and Anna. Complete professionalism while still being warm, funny, and so personable and supportive. We had so many great conversations which eased the nerves. They truly went above and beyond. I felt like royalty. I highly recommend working with Maui Make Up Artistry for any of your special occasions. I would trust them for all of life's special milestones. Thank you Liz and Anna!!!

I had Amber and Val do my hair and makeup for my Engagement photos back in February 2024 I was absolutely thrilled with my results that I knew I had to have them again for my wedding. They truly listened to what I wanted and created a look that was not only elegant but perfectly captured my vision for my wedding day. Their attention to detail was incredible, and my makeup and hair stayed flawless all night despite the heat and wind. I felt absolutely stunning and would recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch hair and makeup artist!

Maui Makeup Artistry is an incredible team. I did a spray tan a few days prior to the wedding and loved it. The day of the wedding my bridesmaids, the moms and I all got our hair and makeup done. Liz and her team were so professional, talented and personable. All the ladies looked fabulous and I'm so grateful for how my bridal look turned out. I opted for glam waves and Amber made me feel like a Hollywood movie star. Liz did my trial and day-of makeup - it was the perfect blend of dewy/natural and glam. I loved it. If you're having a wedding in Hawaii, go with Maui Makeup Artistry!

I eloped in Maui on the beach on 6/22/22. Planning a wedding on an island when you live in CA is a challenge in itself. I had to put 100% of my trust into Maui Makeup Artistry because I couldn't have a trial session. From the moment I contacted them, the experience was amazing. Now let me highlight the stars of the show; Val and Lexi! Val did the most beautiful job on my makeup. She exceeded my expectations in so many ways. Lexi did exactly what I asked for on my hair. My hair usually becomes very frizzy when I'm near the ocean, and with Lexi's technique, my hair didn't budge at all. It held up perfectly! All of this to say, I highly recommend this company. They played a paramount role in my wedding day and I wish I could do it all over again with them, just to experience the bliss one more time.

Update: 10/18/2021 Liz the owner did reach out to me a few weeks before my wedding and apologized for the lack of customer service I received. Dana no longer works at their company and someone new has taken over her position. I completely understand when owners entrust their employees to do the right thing, but behind the scenes do not live up to the expectations. I really appreciated the fact Liz took time to reach out and explain the situation and of course tried to make things right. After speaking with her I ended up booking services with her two senior associates, Anna and Sarah. I guess because it was a somewhat last minute booking, they had prior appointments on the day of my wedding. Therefore Sarah and Anna were running a little late than the proposed time of 12:15pm. Sarah did my makeup, it definitely lasted all day although I felt like my face was melting off because of how hot it was on my wedding day and I had tears running down my face and it looked like I was freshly done. I was quite impressed when I went to clean off at 30mins before midnight. Hair: my mom and I had our hair done. Hers seem to have survived the night however mine was falling apart. My hair accessories came out following my photos on the beach. Maybe I moved too much? My veil wasn't put in prior to Anna leaving and then I ended up forgetting to put it on and didn't have it the entire wedding. A bit bummed about that. Anna did however help my bridesmaid pin up her hair which was appreciated, she definitely didn't have to do that. Overall the interaction and services were great. I suggest getting extra pins placed for hair accessories to stay put. Even the lighter ones! I had one heavier piece which luckily came with strong metal Bobby pins and Anna was able to use those to secure it. But my two small pins did not stay in my hair. Recommend them. Just make sure they have enough time to start your session and not rushing from another appointment. Being late or not in much hurry seems like the trend here in Maui. I've had several vendors take long to provide contracts or reply to emails.

My husband and I had the opportunity to wed in Maui this past January at Sugar Beach Events. They provided a list of their preferred vendors and I of course went with Maui Makeup Artistry. Liz and her team were fun to work with and felt like a girls-day-in. Haha!! Liz knew what I wanted and what colors worked best for my skin and worked with a healing and peeling sun burn from the week prior. I love highlighting my eyes and she did just that and more! I received multiple compliments on the airbrushed finish which was definitely the "icing" to my dress My theme was vintage Hawaii and I was trying to grow out my hair to achieve more style. We went with a Hollywood look complete with a white feather hibiscus flower. Perfect. My bridesmaids and mom also had their hair and make up done and I had them choose their own style but also have a feather hibiscus flower but in yellow. Beautiful. Thank you thank you for your time, service and professionalism. It was fun getting to know everyone while we glammed up. Um can we do it again?!

Liz and her amazing team came in to do all of my bridesmaids, some family members and my own hair and makeup on our wedding day - everyone chose their own hair style to suit their needs and had the same variation of makeup that complemented them best (we also did a trial for my rehearsal dinner!). Herself and the team are such great energy and really listened to the vision I had while I couldn't exactly voice it, we had the best time getting ready and everyone looked like movie stars. My mother and bonus mom were so happy with their looks - and the makeup did not feel cakey but stayed put throughout the sun baked ceremony and all night as we danced. Everyone looked like themselves, but the version that they wanted to see without looking off brand from each other - nothing heavy or fake at all and they only used products that made my very senstive skin feel great. To add to the teams credit -the wedding was also published in British Vogue!!

Liz (Owner/Makeup Artist) and Amber (Hair Stylist)

Liz and her team at Maui Makeup Artistry were over and beyond amazing. They did an absolutely incredible job with the bridal, bridesmaids, and mother's hair and makeup. It was exactly what we requested/discussed, and more! From the very beginning of the planning journey Liz felt like a part of my family and made everything so easy and stress-free for us. Not only did Liz and her team make us all look beautiful, but they made us FEEL beautiful, as well. And major shoutout to Amber for giving me the perfect bridal glam waves that stayed perfect all day, even in the Maui wind!

We corresponded via email about her tanning about 10 of my friends and family. She even traveled from Lahaina to Haiku to accommodate us! She was professional accommodating and so sweet. She tanned everyone! Myself, my husband, even my 85 year old grandmother who had never done it before but wasn't going to miss out on the fun! She explained post tan care, left pamphlets with instructions as reminders and seemed genuinely concerned that each of us were happy. She wouldn't leave without thoroughly inspecting my tan to make sure it was flawless for my big day! She even emailed me the morning of to wish me luck and to make sure I was happy with my results. That is going the extra mile. Long story short- my entire party loved Wendy. We used her post tan soap and moisturizer and I have NEVER had a tan last as long as this one did, it even faded as evenly as you could hope for. Thank you Wendy!!

I'm heading to Maui in a few months and I'm definitely going to try and book her again! Wendy is truly the best!!

I am terrible with makeup and I don't like looking too glamorous, so I'm always nervous when someone else does my makeup.

I did my research, and thought that Jessica's pricing was very reasonable, and that her work resembled what I was looking for. With less than a week heads up, she was able to coordinate a time for my hair and makeup, and was so accommodating! I was very happy with the results after she was complete, but the real test came for the actual engagement shoot where we were on the beach getting splashed with ocean water, and battling wind. I have VERY fine blonde hair, and every piece stayed in place (and it was down in loose curls!), and my makeup look like it had just been put on despite hours in humid/wet conditions --- I was floored! Obviously with such a great experience, I booked her and her team for our wedding date once we settled on a venue. The results on our wedding day were nothing short of what I expected. She guided me through the process of how to do multiple (1 bride, 5 bridesmaids, 2 moms, and a groom's service) people's hair/makeup within tight timeframe, and even was able to take on an extra person for hair, and a groomsmen for a touchup last minute! My five bridesmaids are seasoned bridesmaids, in weddings spanning from Napa, to Palm Springs, to Italy and beyond and they all unanimously agreed that was HANDS DOWN the best hair/makeup experience they have ever had. The airbrush make up worked in humid Maui conditions all day, and with a variety of hair lengths/texture everyone was pleased with the results. I would recommend Jessica & her team to anyone looking for a seamless/stress free and beautiful hair/makeup experience on Maui for Weddings or any special events!

It speaks to her expertise that she could put on my eyelashes all while the hotel staff climbed ladders to fix the A/C, room service fluffed the pillows and bedding, dropped off a celebratory bottle and chocolates. She kept telling me we would later laugh about it and she's right. Aside from some general requests on how I wanted my hair and makeup to look, I trusted her to do her thing and she delivered. I went with wavy curls because I wore a flower crown. I'm always skeptical of curling my hair because it never holds but it held up beautifully even in the Maui heat. The airbrush makeup is amazing. Felt so light on my skin and looked great all night. Thank you, Jessica!

Julie does so many things - hands, nails, lashes, so many different types of massages, etc. If I lived in Maui, she would easily be my one-stop shop for everything. Massage - Hands down, probably the best massage I've ever had. She targeted my shoulder and neck area because they were my most knot-filled areas and it was amazing. Her massage and pressure points felt like they had purpose instead of me being randomly punched. I had to force myself to keep my eyes open so I wouldn't fall asleep and not be awake to enjoy the benefits. She also gave really great advice and educated me about certain pressure points to take with me to future massages. Lashes - Refills looked even better than what I remembered having. Overall - I feel like Julie got the short end of the stick.
