Buying Guide

Buying a new makeup table with mirror and chair allows you to dress up your bedroom easily without undergoing a major renovation. However, there are factors that you’d have to take into account, so you can get the vanity set that’s perfect for your specific situation.

How to get the right dimensions for a makeup table?

Find a tape measure and use it in measuring the space that you want your vanity set to occupy. Don't go wasting your time on space measuring apps from the App Store or on Google Play as you’d want the most accurate dimensions you can get.

Remember that you’ll need a wall height of more or less 160 cm. At a minimum, the table will occupy 80 cm of wall space. The mirror will also occupy another 80 cm as it sits on top of your makeup table.

Some rooms don’t really have a straight vertical wall like re-converted attics and lofts, so a vanity set may not be a good idea for such spaces unless the attic or loft has a vertical wall that’s of shoulder height.

Take into account the windows in your bedroom, where the door of your bedroom opens and closes, as well as existing cupboards.

How to select a makeup table for a teenager?

Girls grow up fast, so get the makeup table that your daughter can use regardless of her age or at least for the next 10 years. For a pre-teenager, you can either get a chair that has an adjustable height feature or an appropriately sized vanity set to allow her to “play” with her hair and face in front of the mirror. Your other option is to add a cushion on the seat that’s at least 10 cm so your little girl can see her shoulders and full head in the mirror.

What features to look for in a makeup table?

A vanity set can come with drawers, which proves to be essential for the storage of makeup and small items. If you want storage space, the table must have drawers that can fit all the items that you plan on keeping. A storage compartment can be attached to the table as a lockable drawer under the mirror. However, there are other types of storage, so you’ll have the freedom to choose the type that you need. Just base it on your personal taste and not just your needs.

You may also want to consider a makeup table with mirror and chair that’s multi-function. Some units can be used as a dressing table, cabinet, and desk at the same time. They're designed to offer versatility, but they often take quite a lot of floor space.
