The size of the vanity depends on your space and storage needs. Small vanities fit well in tight spaces. Larger ones, on the other hand, offer extra storage and counter space. Make sure to leave enough room for comfortable seating and movement.

Some makeup vanities have built-in LED lights around the mirror. This helps you see better when applying makeup, especially in low light. These lights often have adjustable brightness or color modes to suit different needs.

Most vanities have drawers, shelves, or compartments to store makeup and beauty items. Some offer several storage options to keep things organized.

The ideal height for a makeup vanity is typically between 28 to 30 inches. This height suits most users, providing comfort while sitting and applying makeup.

The best materials for a makeup vanity are sealed wood or smooth acrylic, as they’re easy to clean and maintain. Wood is classic and sturdy, while acrylic is lightweight with a sleek finish.

A makeup vanity is usually placed in a bedroom, closet, or dressing area. It's best near a window for natural light. If there's no window, place it by a wall with good lighting for better use.
