Meet your educator

Courtney Livesay

Master PMU Artist · Browhouse Academy Educator

Courtney isn’t teaching students to copy a technique. She’s teaching them how to think through the work like an artist.

You’ll see how she evaluates lips, selects pigment, maps shape, controls saturation, and adjusts in real time. During hands-on practice, Courtney stays close—correcting technique and explaining why each decision matters.

Live-model experience

You won’t leave having practiced only on latex.

Day two is where the foundation comes together. Students complete a supervised lip blush treatment on a live model, subject to the registration and safety requirements outlined in the training terms.

Courtney guides the assessment, mapping, pigment selection, machine technique, saturation, and finishing. You aren’t expected to arrive already knowing how to do it. That’s why you’re here.

Beyond the classroom

More than a technique. A new service for your business.

Inside Browhouse

Learn where the work happens.

Training takes place inside Browhouse’s Newport Beach studio, surrounded by the tools, routines, and client standards used every day.

Courtney demonstrates each technique in context, watches you practice, and helps you understand why a decision works before you repeat it on your own.

Beautiful PMU isn’t judged only by how it looks immediately after the appointment. It’s judged by how thoughtfully it is designed to heal.

Who this is for

This training was created for you if…

You don’t need experience. You need the right foundation.

I’m ready to learn
  • You’re completely new to permanent makeup and want a careful place to begin.
  • You already work in brows or beauty and want to add lip blush.
  • You’ve trained before but still don’t feel ready to work on clients.
  • Machines, needles, pigments, or color theory still feel overwhelming.
  • You want hands-on correction rather than another prerecorded course.
  • You want to understand why a decision works—not only memorize steps.
  • You want continued support as you practice after class.

Build the skills behind thoughtful lip blush.

Safety and judgment come first. Technique follows, then the full client experience, from consultation to healed-result review.

The standard behind the class.

As of July 2026, Browhouse holds a 5.00 aggregate rating across more than 2,098 client reviews on Google, Facebook, and Yelp. These are studio reviews, not course testimonials; they show the level of care students are being taught to uphold.

The shape and color were exactly what I had envisioned, if not better. The microblading process was surprisingly painless, thanks to her gentle touch and skillful technique.

Browhouse client review

Applying makeup takes so much less time, and the look is so natural and effortless. I’m forever grateful.

Questions before you apply?

Do I need previous lip blush experience?

No. The training is built for complete beginners as well as beauty and PMU professionals who want to add lip blush with a stronger technical foundation.

When is the September training?

Training runs Saturday, September 26 and Sunday, September 27, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM each day at Browhouse Academy in Newport Beach.

Will I work on a live model?

The curriculum includes a supervised live-model experience. Participation is subject to instructor approval, model availability, insurance, and completion of applicable practitioner registration and approved bloodborne-pathogen training.

Is a machine and starter kit included?

Yes. The training package includes a professional PMU machine, starter supplies, pigments, cartridges, mapping tools, practice materials, and the course workbook. Final brands and kit details are shared before training.

What certificate will I receive?

Students who participate in both days receive a Browhouse Academy Certificate of Participation. It records course participation and is not a government license or practitioner registration.

How does enrollment work?

Tuition is $2,499. Begin with the short training application, then either pay a $500 deposit or pay the tuition in full through secure Stripe Checkout. The deposit is applied to tuition; an application alone does not reserve a place.

Are payment plans available?

Yes. Choose the $500 seat deposit at checkout, then request split-payment options for the remaining $1,999 balance in your application. You can also pay the $2,499 tuition in full.

What support is available after class?

The Browhouse team provides post-training support as you continue practicing, reviewing healed work, and building confidence behind the machine.

Live-model preparation

Students must be 18 or older. Anyone performing body art on a live model in Orange County must complete applicable practitioner registration and approved bloodborne-pathogen training in advance. Browhouse will provide enrolled students with the preparation timeline.
