About

With over two decades of experience and 20,000+ faces styled, I specialize in creating calm, radiant beauty for brides getting married in paradise. Every look is tailored to highlight your natural elegance—whether you're saying "I do" on the beach, at a mountaintop villa, or in a grand ballroom.

What sets me apart is the personal care I bring to each wedding. I intentionally book only 1–2 brides a day, allowing me to be fully present—from your trial session to your final touch-up. My signature style blends refined makeup application, flawless skin prep, and hair designs that hold beautifully in Hawaii’s climate.

This isn’t just beauty—it’s a moment of calm, connection, and confidence, created just for you.

Aloha

Dorys was awesome and I HIGHLY recommend her! My makeup came out just the way I wanted it and my hair (and bridesmaids) stayed in place all day and night. She listens very closely and gives you exactly what you want. On the day of the wedding, she arrived on time and stayed on schedule according to the timeline. She even had time to put eyelashes on my bridesmaids and put flowers in my flower girls hair, without us even planning for it. I got the flowers for my hair and the flower girls hair through her and I highly recommend that you do, since she knows what type is best. She also provided a touch-up kit, which came in very handy.

Dorys from Maleana Cosmetics was wonderful. I can honestly say she was able to create exactly the look I was hoping for (and I only had a magazine photograph that was close but not perfect!). She was efficient and entirely friendly. I was doubly impressed since after she found out we were actually doing our photo shoot in two sessions, 4 hours apart, she offered to come to our venue to do touch-ups. This was completely above and beyond what we had booked her for, and she really made our day special. (on a side note, I have been trying ever since to recreate her make-up application, and have failed miserably!) Many many thanks to the very talented Dorys.

I loved how Dorys listened and made sure all my needs were met. Dorys' easy going personality will make you feel at ease so it's easier for you to address what you want (in my case, I'm very particular about my eye makeup). I was also surprised to find how quick Dorys and her assistant, Mary worked but it didn't compromise on the results. In 4 short hours, Dorys and Mary completed 8 girls' makeup and hair and everyone looked gorgeous! I have to be honest, I was expecting to go over the time at first! Most of all, Dorys made me look and feel like a princess on my wedding day. She is one of the best makeup artists I have met - and I've worked in the cosmetics industry for 5 years now!

I am so glad I went with Maleana Cosmetics for hair and makeup for myself and my bridal party. I had originally booked another company and had a trial with them. And while there was nothing wrong with the trial I just felt like something was off. So I cancelled them and luckily Dorys was still available. I had an opportunity to have a trial with Dorys while I was in town planning (destination bride) and felt so happy I made the switch. She and two more stylists came to our hotel to do hair and makeup for me and 9 people in my bridal party. They were all fantastic. They were easy to work with, they listened to what my girls wanted and were able to create the look they were going for and they made all of us look naturally beautiful, did not feel like we had makeup caked on. I had my hair in a low bun like design with a flower on the side and it stayed put all night long, as did my makeup! Dorys is a true professional who listens to what you want and can make you look like the best version of you.

Dorys met with me a few months before the wedding to come up with my "makeup plan". On the day of the wedding, she and one other staff member came to do the hair/makeup for me, three bridesmaids and the mom's. We were finished ahead of schedule, which was excellent!

We were very pleased with how our hair and makeup turned out for everyone! My hair and makeup were perfect - I couldn't have been happier with it!! All the girls liked their hair and makeup, too, although of course, I wish Dorys could have done everyone's because she is the best!! But the other two ladies who helped us that morning were spectacular and very warm and friendly, too. We were very happy!

I'm extremely glad that I had Maleana Cosmetics do hair and makeup for my wedding! Dorys is awesome, and I enjoyed meeting with her for a trial run a few months before the wedding so I had no worries about the styling, even when I decided at the last minute to wear a veil after all. She had 2 other stylists come out to the hotel with her to do hair and makeup for all 15 of us, and kept us all on time during the getting ready process. The airbrushed makeup stood up to the Hawaiian humidity (and some rain!) and my smokey eyes looked fantastic into the wee hours of the morning. If anyone's on the fence about having a stylist for their wedding day, I say definitely do it, and use Maleana!

Maleana did a fabulous job with the hair and makeup for the bride and bridal party. The airbrush make-up was natural yet glamorous and lasted all day/evening. Our timeline shifted earlier and we were initially concerned that all the ladies would not get done in time for the first look and photos. Dorys ended up sending in a third make-up artist so that we could meet our timeline. When she did not feel well that morning, Dorys found an experienced substitute who she instructed to take exclusive care of the bride. We were very satisfied with the quality of services. All make-up artists were courteous, timely, professional, and prepared. They brought all of their hair and make-up equipment and supplies to the hotel room. Mahalo Maleana! We would highly recommend them for weddings and other special occasions!

Doris was great. She made all of us especially me beautiful. Doris and staff are very flexible and our make up look very flawless but so light we felt we didn't even had one on. Awesome Work!
