Choosing a dressing table: your own beauty corner

Make-up in the bathroom, jewellery on the bedside table and your hairdryer somewhere in a drawer: sound familiar? A dressing table gives all your beauty items one fixed spot. You get ready calmly for the day or a night out, and everything is within easy reach. But which dressing table suits you? In this guide you will read what to look for.

Which dressing table suits you?

Step 1: measure your space

Measure the spot where the dressing table will go and think about the space to sit. You want to be able to slide your stool back without bumping into the bed or the wardrobe. Little space? The Auralyn is 48 cm wide and also fits in a small bedroom. Want lots of space on the top? Then the 90 × 40 cm Victoria offers room for all your beauty essentials.

Step 2: light at your mirror

Good light makes all the difference for your make-up. Most of our dressing tables come with an LED mirror:

• Auralyn: LED mirror with touch control.
• Alain: round LED mirror that you can dim.
• Dressing table with bedside cabinet: LED mirror for good light while doing your make-up.

Choosing a dressing table with a regular mirror, such as the Victoria? Then place a separate Hollywood mirror on it for even light around your face. Which size and light suit it, you can read in Which Hollywood mirror suits you? You will find all models side by side on Buying a Hollywood mirror.

Step 3: how much storage space do you need?

Take an honest look at how many things you have. A few palettes and some skincare need less space than a complete collection of make-up, brushes and jewellery.

• Drawers with compartments: the Alain has 4 drawers, so small items stay sorted.
• Storage stool: on the Auralyn, make-up and jewellery disappear into the stool.
• Bedside cabinet: extra storage space right beside you.

Step 4: choose your style

• White or pink: light and fresh, lovely in a small or light bedroom.
• Matte black with gold: a luxurious, modern look.
• Wood or light brown: warm and natural, or rather industrial.

Tips for your beauty corner

• Ideally, place your dressing table near a window, so you have daylight during the day.
• Keep your jewellery organised with a jewellery box on the top.
• Only looking for an illuminated mirror for a table you already have? Then view our mirrors.
