Lily, the founder of brow and lip studio Brow Posse, understands the significance of quality over quantity. With a niche but carefully curated treatment menu, she focuses on a handful of services she has truly mastered, including brow shaping, brow laminations, and lash lifts, ensuring she delivers outstanding, personalised results for each client. Established in early 2024 and nestled in the vibrant South City Square hub of Woolloongabba, Brow Posse combines Lily’s two passions – interior design and beauty – and is housed within the beautiful SOJA STUDIOS. Rejecting a one-size-fits-all approach, each treatment is customised to the individual with a focus on long-lasting, lived-in beauty rituals that make you look polished without the daily effort. Following an educational trip to Vancouver to learn from an expert, Lily recently introduced Brow Posse’s newest service: lip blush. This semi-permanent tattoo procedure subtly enhances lip colour and definition. So, lazy girls: if you’re all about looking great with minimal effort, Brow Posse is the shortcut to a flawless, low-maintenance beauty routine.
