11 Chic Makeup Vanities (Just for Her!)

Outfitted in crisp, white cabinets, silver fixtures and gorgeous marble accents, this bathroom evokes a feeling of simple luxury that is especially accentuated by the ornate antique mirror. To make the space all hers, a cut-out in the vanity reveals a small makeup area dressed with a chic standup mirror and glamorous accessories to match. Design by Bear-Hill Interiors

Designer Aneka Jensen incorporated an oval antique desk and framed mirror into this luxurious master bathroom to serve as a separate makeup area. Framed with beaded silk curtains and decorated with a pair of table lamps, the space feels intimate and secluded, and instantly becomes the perfect place for the lady of the house to primp in the mornings.

Most modern-day makeup areas are built into the bathroom vanity and are simply a lowered continuation of the countertop. Many designers, however, still try to achieve that classic look by building the makeup vanity into furniture-style cabinetry and offsetting it from the rest of the space. This separate makeup area could easily be the most alluring part of the bathroom with its antique-style mirror, glamorous perfume accessories, fresh floral arrangement and framed pictures for an extra-special touch.

Designer Tracy Morris turned this calming, spa-inspired master bathroom into a true sanctuary with plush textiles, soft lighting and romantic elements. A desk-style dressing table and wingback chair offer a unique place to apply finishing touches in the morning, with a mirror just off to the side. Located nearby, a traditional makeup counter and sink are ideal for quick, on-the-go applications and last-minute adjustments.
