CURATE YOUR DREAM DRESSING TABLE
A mirror is A must – make it oversized to enhance the spacious feel. An additional magnified mirror with back-light can prove invaluable for precision-preening of eyebrows and achieving the perfect lip-line.
Lighting is Also key and should include task lights installed at eye-level. Choose bulbs with a colour rendering index (CRI) of 90 or above to accurately match your make-up with your natural skin tone.
it’s Also nice to include A diffused Light source that will cast the room in a soft, romantic glow – a chic table lamp will work.
table-top storage should be both stylish and useful. A family photo in an ornate frame will personalise the space. Be careful not to over-clutter the surface, as you’ll need plenty of space to spread out.
A comfy seat, ideally padded in a pretty textile, will complete the set-up. Make sure it’s high enough to sit with your legs at a right angle to avoid back strain, but low enough to get your knees under the table easily.
