Things to Consider When Shopping for a Bedroom Makeup Vanity:
If you are interested in setting up a makeup vanity in your room, here are a few things that you should consider.
- First, you will need to assess where you can place the vanity in your bedroom and how much space you actually have. Always measure your space before you buy furniture! It’s important that you have enough space to sit and do your makeup comfortably, so factor in enough space for a chair when you measure.
- One huge part of picking out a vanity is deciding on the shape that you want. Vanity mirrors come in a bunch of different shapes, so you might have one that you like better. We’ll share a variety of options below.
- Also, I am sure you have probably seen vanities with lights on them. This is an option to consider, depending on how well-lit your space is. Some vanities come with lights and some do not, so make sure you know whether you want or need lighting on your vanity before you buy one.
- Lastly, think about the style of vanity you want. This new makeup vanity desk is going to be an addition to your room, so you will want to make sure that it goes well with the style of your room.
For example, do you want a more simple vanity or do you want a boho-chic style vanity? These are all questions to consider.
To help you in searching for the perfect vanity to add to your bedroom, this post will show you the best bedroom makeup vanity ideas to get you started.
Bedroom Makeup Vanity Ideas to Try
Foldable Makeup Small Space Vanity
Buy at PBteen
Let’s start with a very popular and classic type of vanity that you have probably seen before. It is the folding mirror makeup vanity.
This is a great option for those of us who don’t want to miss a thing when doing our makeup. This folding makeup vanity desk will make sure that you look absolutely flawless because the mirrors will show you every angle of your face.
Also, an added bonus to this small space-approved makeup vanity desk is that it comes with storage. You’ll have a whole drawer to store your favorite supplies, plus plenty of space on top for everything else.
Midcentury Vanity Desk
Buy at PBTeen
If your room is giving more of an eclectic or boho-chic style, I definitely recommend going for this mid-century vanity makeup desk!
This vanity desk is a cool mid-century vanity that comes in a beautiful cream color that’s different from your usual white.
Once again, this vanity is heavy on storage space. It has a whopping five drawers so you can stay super organized and keep your vanity top mostly clear.
Touch Screen Vanity
Buy on Amazon
Touch screen mirrors are becoming incredibly popular for vanities. They allow you to control the lighting on the mirror using the touch screen feature, so you can get it exactly how you want.
If this sounds cool to you, I recommend this touchscreen mirror, available on Amazon. You can add it to any vanity table so it will work with most setups.
Also, I love that the lighting is installed inside of the mirror. This is also a cool alternative to the classic light bulbs on the outside of the mirror.
This gives the vanity a more modern look.
Classic Gold Vanity Desk
Buy at PBTeen
If you want a makeup vanity desk that is beautiful and timeless, you should go for this gold vanity desk.
This vanity desk is awesome because it comes with so much storage! It has both a drawer and an included set of mini organizers to keep on top of the vanity for the products you use every day. If you love to be organized, this is the one for you.
Wall-Mounted Vanity
Buy on Amazon
If you are very limited on space in your room, you can still set up a vanity space! A wall-mounted vanity is a great option if you’re short on floor space but still want a vanity.
If you have never seen a wall-mounted vanity before, they look like this. They usually come with a few drawers and a mirror to complete the vanity.
An added bonus is that it will also save you the time and effort of having to put a full vanity together. This is always a plus for busy college students!
Get-Ready Beauty Station
Buy at PBTeen
Here’s an alternative wall-mounted vanity that you can use with any mirror you already have.
Like the other wall-mounted vanity listed above, this one is small and doesn’t take up any floor space.
I particularly love this bedroom makeup vanity idea because this vanity can hold your hot tools (blow dryer, flat iron) and even your tech (phone, tablet) while you get ready!
There’s also tons of storage included in this sleek vanity; it’s all-around perfect.
Large Mirror Vanity
Buy on Amazon
If you want the classic vanity with the large mirror and bright lighting, I recommend adding this one to your room!
This vanity is pretty big, so you will need to make sure that you have enough space for it in your bedroom. However, a good thing about this vanity is that if you have a lot of makeup, it definitely will have enough storage for you!
Also, this vanity comes with a huge mirror and a lot of lighting. All of your friends will want to come and get ready in your room!
Mini Vanity Desk
Buy on Amazon
If you have just enough space to fit a smaller makeup vanity desk in your room, I recommend getting this mid-century mini vanity desk.
This mini vanity desk comes with basically all of the features that a normal-sized vanity would like a mirror, storage, etc.
However, this vanity mirror desk is more compact, so if you have only a smaller part of your room that is available you won’t have to worry because you will be able to fit this vanity.
As a bonus, the mirror folds down in this unit, so you can use the table as a desk when you are done getting ready.
Elegant Vanity Desk
Buy on Amazon
If your room has a preppy and elegant vibe to it, I recommend going for this rose-carving makeup vanity desk! It’s so girly and traditionally feminine.
This makeup vanity desk is absolutely gorgeous. It comes in white and has an oval-shaped mirror that will work perfectly for your classy look in your room.

Modern Vanity
Buy on Amazon
If the furniture in your room is more modern, you will most likely also want a modern-looking vanity.
If that’s your vibe, I absolutely love this modern-style vanity from Amazon.
This vanity looks more modern and different from most vanities because of the way that it is designed. Plus, it comes with its own matching seating to save you the hassle of finding a separate chair.
Corner Vanity Desk
Buy on Amazon
If you have a corner of your room open for a vanity, here’s one of my favorite bedroom makeup vanity ideas that’s perfect for your space.
This corner vanity will do the trick if you are looking for some more things to add to the empty space in your room or if you are looking for something that will be easier to fit with your other furniture.
And, don’t worry, just because this vanity is meant for corners of rooms, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t come with storage. This one has TONS. You will be able to store all your necessary items in this vanity with pull-out drawers!
Vanity Desk with Shelves
Buy on Amazon
Most vanities come with drawers so that you can store your makeup or whatever other items that you would like to keep in your vanity.
However, if you want extra storage space or if you want to put some decor and items on display, this vanity desk with shelves is a great option.
This vanity will not only give you drawers for storage, but it will give your space some additional decor.
Round Vanity Mirror
Buy on Amazon
If you don’t like the other rectangle or oval mirror options as much, I love the round-shaped mirror featured on this vanity.
This is a cute alternative to the other mirror shape options for vanities. Plus, it comes with a touchscreen mirror AND vanity stool, so it has everything you need in one set.

Decor Tips
Make getting ready chic with these eight vanity ideas for bedroom and bathroom.
Next to a BedYour own personal vanity space should be your own (meaning, it should be as accessible as possible, for whenever you need it). If your bathroom is shared, this may pose a problem, as other people may have to use the space when you need to use your vanity. Regardless of the bathroom situation, there’s not a space in the house that’s more personal than your bedroom, so nothing makes more sense than a vanity in it! Here, you can ensure your vanity is yours.
Mirrored VanityA vanity table loves a mirror like blush loves a good primer – this isn’t news, since the whole point of the vanity is to help you get ready in the morning.
But while the traditional way of styling a vanity is to hang a mirror on the wall above it, not-so-traditional is a vanity made out of mirrors. This kind of design sparkles and shines (just like the shimmery eyeshadow palettes, highlighters and lip glosses which it stores)!
A bright white finish feels fresh while making statement accents stand out. Style a white vanity with accessories, such as a small makeup case, decorative jewelry box or decorative vase. Also, pay attention to hardware like drawer knobs to define the aesthetic.
Oval MirrorFor a softer touch, opt for a round mirror instead of the rectangular or square versions. Circular or oval will do the trick, as long as the finish of the mirror matches the vanity itself. Don’t worry too much about size; since it’s just for you, all you’ll need is a mirror large enough to capture your own beautiful face! Just make sure to place the mirror and vanity on the same wall as a window, so that you get enough light when getting ready in the mornings.
A tufted fabric stool makes things a whole lot more comfortable. (Swap out plush fabric or leather upholstery for a stool, or opt for a traditional chair or tufted armchair, instead.) Spend hours applying a video makeup tutorial or simply a few minutes to make sure you’re decent before heading out – either way, this design will keep the vibe cozy.
Black VanityFor more of a traditional look, try a black vanity table and stool with a matching statement mirror. This statement neutral matches with everything, so have fun with the accessories – try a white vase for contrast or complementing wall décor. Crisp black is also great for defining shape (note the turned legs of the table and stool in the next image). Finally, note the detail of the hardware; metal texture adds a rustic appeal.
In the HallwayThat area of a narrow hallway that meets the outer wall of an adjacent room – you know the one, where there is a small but awkward space between rooms that’s always seen as you pass between rooms but never actually quite used – that space is the perfect space for a vanity! Vanities are small-space versions of a traditional desk, making them the perfect design for end-of-hallways.
This placement also gives you a defined space for your “getting ready zone,” as well as passersby something pretty to look at as they walk between rooms.
The desk vanity is simply a desk with a mirror above it, so if you already have a desk, you’re already halfway to completing a vanity aesthetic. Buy a desk-mirror set, or have fun with mixing and matching your own mirror and desk designs. Add to the vibe with a standout chair, and then all you’ll need to do is to sit at your vanity and prep yourself pretty!

Double Vanity Bathroom Ideas - Homemillion
Time to read: 5 minute(s)
Martin Barro / OJO Images / Getty Images
You don't need a very large bathroom to take advantage of a double vanity. Even in small spaces, you can have two sinks instead of one.
Why do you need two sinks? Well, in bathrooms shared by two or more people, a double vanity lets them brush their teeth, apply makeup, etc. at the same time. That means less conflict and more time saved.
Double vanity also adds value to your home. While one sink is typical and necessary, two sinks make your home more desirable and appealing to potential buyers.
Often the choice to buy one home over another is how practical the bathroom is; the double vanity definitely adds to that.
Best of all, double vanities are suitable for all types of bathrooms, from traditional to modern and medium to spacious.

Abbott Moon
A raised double vanity, like this one in the Abbott Moon bathroom via DecorPad, opens up floor space to a gorgeous chocolate brown wood floor. Topped with a white marble top, the dressing table has ample storage space for two people. The frameless mirror blends in with the color of the walls while maintaining the brown-cream contrast of the bottom and top of the room, a classic and elegant combination that never goes out of style.

Access Solutions
Double toiletries are also ideal for children's shared bathrooms. This example from Access Solutions via Improvenet shows a Southwestern-inspired bathroom: muted earthy colors, teal accents, and southwestern decorative accessories make for an interesting space for kids. The double sink means no fight over who gets to wash your teeth first, and everyone gets a little personal space for their favorite hand soap.

Tom Curran Companies
You don't need a very large space to add a double dressing table. Even small bathrooms, like this one from Tom Curren Companies via Houzz, can accommodate a double-sink vanity. There's enough room for two people to stand side by side comfortably, and enough storage space as well.
If you decide to go with less vanity, keep your countertop uncluttered by adding mirrored first aid kits for extra storage space.

Interiors Amy Morris
Large vanities can clutter up space due to their size.
Counteract this effect by opting for an open storage vanity, as in this bathroom by Amy Morris Interiors. The open shelf gives room for beautiful baskets to put your things in and adds airiness to the space. The dressing table is painted in Benjamin Moore Graphite, which contrasts nicely with the white marble top. -
Plum Design West
Sometimes a side-by-side double vanity doesn't quite match your bathroom design. Why not try a custom solution, like this face-to-face double vanity from Plum Design West? If you have a large open area like this bathroom, it might be better to use the space to put a double vanity in the middle rather than along the wall. This ultra-modern design features unfurnished drawers to maintain an angular look, and a mirror reminiscent of ceiling-high open windows.

Lumber Structures
As with the open-shelf vanity, a floating vanity like this example from Ligneous Designs via Houzz looks light and airy. Enhancing the effect, the cream/slate contrast makes the vanity look like a cloud floating over a lake.
Rounded vessel shells counterbalance the straight, sharp-angled mirrors above. -
Design by Fiorella
While the style of this particular bathroom is hard to define, rustic and industrial influences come through the restored shiplap siding wall and metallic charcoal double vanity. This bathroom by Fiorella Design eschews the coldness of industrial production by using warm neutral tones and plenty of natural textures like wood, pebbles and wickerwork.

Return to the roots
This vanity design option is completely in sync with the existing environment, and has a very rustic feel, which is what many of us now want, more real in the house, closer to nature. An ultra-minimalist approach, along with walls and floors that give the impression of stone.

Natural curves
The perfect example of an Asian vanity motif for an eclectic bathroom design .
