Every woman needs a place where she cando makeup or hair. It is more convenient to do this at the dressing table. What it should be, where it is better to put it and what subtleties you need to know to make it cozy, we will tell you Dressing table - a woman's personal space. This is a place where she can easily tidy herself up, highlight the natural beauty and relax. And the design and shape of such a piece of furniture can significantly improve the appearance of the room. Before heading to the store To decorate your interior, you should first think about the stylistic solution. It can be mysterious, romantic, or modern, minimalistic. The main thing is that it must fit into the room harmoniously, not flashy. It's also important to think about convenience. How to arrange a dressing table? Pre-measure the place where you plan to put it. Provide free space for a chair so that you can sit freely at the table. If you have drawers, consider whether they will be convenient to use. Our opinion: - The dressing table is a very personal area. It is desirable that this is not a passable place. Otherwise, someone may accidentally hurt you or your cosmetics, other ladies' things. Nobody should bother you. 
Where to place Usually the dressing table is placedin a bedroom, sometimes in a spacious hallway, in a dressing room or in a bathroom. But to apply the perfect makeup, it is important to provide the area with the right daylight. Therefore, place the dressing table closer to the window. If you are looking for space saving options, get the corner model. In the absence of extra square meters, the dressing table can even fit in a niche or pantry. Our opinion: - It is undesirable to put the dressing table in front of the window, if it is behind it. This is considered the most unfortunate option. With this arrangement, the mirror will glare, shine sharply into the eyes. And the face will be constantly in the shadow. Galina Yurieva, interior designer: - In my opinion, it is absolutely necessary to have a large mirror, good lighting and drawers in which you can conveniently distribute everything you need to apply makeup. Ideally, the lighting should be natural. In the absence of space for placing a table, you can organize a make-up area on the windowsill by placing a mirror in the window opening. This creates a lighting effect similar to a mirror with built-in illumination, only the light will be natural. 
Spotlights Correct lighting of the washroom areaa table is the key to the success of your beauty. So, you will avoid minor incidents when applying daytime makeup, if you provide access to sunlight. If you have to add beauty in the evening, try to equip the dressing table with additional light sources. Remember the dressing rooms of the stars, there are quite a lot of artificial lighting in them. If you want to feel like a celebrity, hang lights, sconces, or lamps on both sides. Among other things, such a backlight helps to increase the illumination due to reflection and does not hit the eyes. Place light sources so that they do not reflect in the mirror. Our opinion: - It is not recommended to use lamps with colored glass shades. Such glass can distort the natural complexion. Better buy a wall lamp made of white or frosted glass. It is important that the light does not force you to squint or be too bright. Moderate, soft lighting is good for comfort. Mila Kolpakova, interior designer: - In addition to natural light (from the window), the table should have additional lighting. The main idea is that the face should be lit as evenly as possible and from both sides. Pros recommend using LED lighting. It is the LEDs that are used in the products of the Glamcor light manufacturer, which is popular among professional makeup artists. 
Mirrors and other ladies' things Dressing tableassumes the presence of all kinds of shelves, boxes, jars, mirrors. It is worth remembering the sense of proportion. This place should evoke a feeling of lightness, beauty and comfort. Only the most essential items should be on the work surface. Hide the rest. If there are not enough lockers, use different accessories for small items, and the hairdryer can be attached to a special structure on the side of the table. You definitely cannot do without a mirror. It can be a small mirror on a leg or a large one on the whole wall. It all depends on your capabilities and preferences. Mila Kolpakova, interior designer: - Traditional solutions, time-tested, are a triple mirror (trellis) or a make-up mirror (with lighting around the perimeter). If you choose another option, pay attention to the size of the mirror. It should be large enough to match the style and proportions of the table. Additionally, it is necessary to provide for the presence of one more mirror - a magnifying one with backlight. 
Make yourself comfortable An integral attributethe dressing table is a seating area. Comfort comes first. Choose compact poufs, chairs, armchairs, benches so that they slide under the table. This option will save space if the area of the room is small. Note the frame chair or sheer chairs. They are almost invisible and create a light atmosphere. If you spend a lot of time at the dressing table, then armchairs or chairs with a back are more suitable for you. They will provide a more comfortable environment.
