How To Create Your Dream Makeup Vanity

Makeup is a form of self-expression and having a place where you can play around with all sorts of products while getting your face done up is pretty awesome. There are plenty of ways you can go about creating such a space, but we'll be focusing on the easiest one — buying an actual vanity.

Vanity tables have been around for centuries and they haven't changed much since then. They're usually a large table with a variety of drawers and storage space, allowing you to organise all your makeup while having easy access to it at the same time. Here is how you can create your dream makeup vanity:

Make A Plan

• You need to make a plan and either create a rough sketch or a vision board for your dream vanity. You can take inspiration from Pinterest and collect a few pictures of the vanity that you want. After you have decided on the type of vanity you want, depending on your budget, you can either buy it readymade from places like Amazon or iKEA, or you can get it made.
• A vanity enables you to have multiple people sit at the same time, with their makeup and products organised in one place. You will have a place where you can store all your makeup products - whether they're new or old, bought from Sephora or some drugstore brand.

Categorise Your Makeup

• After you have decided on your vanity and have an idea of what it will look like. It is now time to categorise and organise your makeup. You need to go through your existing makeup collection and throw away everything that is old and expired. Also, make a list of new items that you need to buy for your vanity.
• Once you have sorted through all your makeup, now you need to decide where to put all your makeup and how to categorise everything. If your vanity has already arrived you can directly start organising all the makeup. But if it hasn't, then take a reference picture of your vanity and categorically decide where you would want to put all your makeup.
• Make a chart of which drawer is assigned for eyeshadows, and which one is for lipsticks and organise each one of your makeup products like this.
• This creates a system, which will prevent you from losing any products. You can also try and do this step first and place an order for the vanity later.

Decorate Your Vanity

• You have the two most important aspects of your vanity put together. Now it is time for you to decorate your vanity, however, you like it. You can add pictures, more lighting, quotes or any other decorative pieces to your vanity to give it your unique touch.
• And last but not least — your vanity can be a great place to hang out with friends and just have a good time! You could get some cool lamps installed so that the lighting in the room is better.
