Whether you're a mid-century modern woman or a country-style gal, this list has you covered!

Whether you're looking for a spot that's not a shared bathroom to get ready, you need a little more storage for your growing makeup collection, or you just want to splurge a little on yourself and enjoy getting ready again, getting a new makeup vanity is a decision you'll thank yourself time and time again for. But, that doesn't mean that finding the perfect one is easy! You want plenty of storage, a nice mirror (preferably lit), a comfy seat — all in a piece of furniture that matches your personal style. While there are tons of options on the market, there are a handful that stand out above the rest.

After scouring ratings and reviews for hours on end, we found the best makeup vanity options for every style or need you might have. Looking for a makeup vanity with lights? There are tons of options on this list! Or maybe you'd prefer one that you can DIY and make your own style? We've got the perfect blank slate vanity just for you. Trust us, no matter your budget, style, or space situation, there is definitely a makeup vanity that's perfect for you on this list.

If you're looking for a blank slate that you can totally customize and make your own style, then look no further. At under $200, this vanity is the perfect price point to build on. Add your own drawer pulls, knobs paint—whatever your heart desires! Sturdy and well-built, it comes with all the basics you need in a vanity, including a power strip, lights, mirror, shelving space, drawers, and hair tool holders.

Positive review: "This is a solid beautiful vanity for any girl’s bedroom! Assembly instructions were easy to follow and it took two of us 2.5 hours to put together but well worth it. The lights are nice and it has ample room for storage. Customer service is an A+! Quick responses and very accommodating with any issues. Glad we purchased it!"

This makeup vanity is more than just stylish—it has all the fixin's. With the trio of drawers, cabinets, and shelves, a sliding mirror with three light modes, and a glass top that allows you to see what resides in two of the drawers, this vanity truly does have it all and then some. And considering how good it looks doing it? We're sold! It comes in four different finishes and two sizes, with the larger of the two shown here.

Positive review: "I am thrilled with how much storage is in this vanity. I've basically been able to store more than 5 shoeboxes full of stuff, brush caddies and all kinds of other things. The glass top is beautiful. The drawers are nice and good size."

At just 30-inches wide, this makeup vanity is small enough to fit in just about any space, but is still entirely functional. While it doesn't have as much storage as many of the vanities on this list, it does have three drawers and comes with a built-in mirror and stool. And for the low price of under $130, this vanity can easily squeeze into anyone's budget. It would be the perfect option to spoil your little one with her own vanity to play at or a small spot for your tween girl to start experimenting with makeup.

Positive review: "This is perfect! If fits so nicely in my niece's room! It doesn’t take up a lot of space, but is still enough room to get your glam on! The color is gorgeous, I got the gold color. Wow! is all I can say it’s so nice in person. The drawers glide in and out smoothly. The hardware is beautiful. The stool seems comfortable, I only tested it out after I put it together."

Any piece of furniture that can play double duty is a welcome piece in our homes, like this practical vanity. While it can be used as a desk or nightstand, fold the hidden mirror up to reveal extra storage space and the perfect spot to get ready. We also love the drawer-front cabinet that will allow her to hide away large electric hair tools.

Positive review: "It was easy to assemble and it was the perfect size for the space I have. I like that the side looks like 4 drawers but it is one drawer and the others open up to an open space with a shelf."

It's no secret: most vanities are geared more toward women, but guys enjoy a spot to get ready, too! While there are not too many options on the market for the men, this vanity stands out above the rest. It comes in black and white, but we think the wood-grain pattern shown here gives off the best rustic vibes. It also has tons of storage for his stuff, include two cabinets, three drawers, open shelving, and a stool with additional storage.

Positive review: "Super cute vanity! Not as big as I thought it would be but it’s big enough to do the job. Took about 3 hours to put together but the instructions were super easy to follow and every part was labeled. It isn’t made out of the cheap wood that cracks easily which is another plus. I already had vanity lights before I bought this so I used those instead of the ones it came with. Mine were much brighter. All in all I love it."

Not trying to spend $100+ on a new makeup vanity? We've got you! This basic but beautiful vanity features all the necessities in an elegant package. You'll get a lit mirror with adjustable brightness, large drawer for storage, and a side outlet with USB port.

Positive review: "People were very impressed with this vanity when I showed them! Although cheap to buy, definitely not cheap to use. The drawer is large enough to fit all my beauty supplies including makeup and hair tools, the plug attachment is very powerful and well built, and the lights are gorgeous. Well done product and I am very happy and satisfied with my purchase."

Don't let your super-small space deter you from getting a makeup vanity! This compact unit is under 20-inches wide but features every essential you could need, and packs quite a bit of storage space. In addition to the two drawers, it also has a stool with storage and open shelving above the lit mirror with adjustable brightness. And if you need a little extra working space temporarily, just pull out the fold-out top.

Positive review: "I was surprised to find this item so reasonably priced. The quality is very good and sturdy. My 15 yr old granddaughter wanted a vanity so bad that she assembled it herself. It was easy. She's so happy with it. It doesn’t take up a lot of space."

Nothing on that face will go missed with the extra-large mirror on this vanity. Spanning the entire 43.8 inches of the vanity, the mirror has three lighting effects and plenty of brightness options. Just because it sacrifices upper storage space for the mirror doesn't mean it's lacking overall in storage. With a total of seven drawers and a stool with extra storage space, you should have plenty of room to store all your palettes, brushes, and perfumes.

Positive review: "I love my vanity!!! It’s a dream come true! I was devastated that the mirror came broken but the manufacturer was quick to fix this problem for me and send a new one. All the storage space is perfect for me. I can’t wait to add the mirror. It’s also not hard to put together just time consuming! I’m very happy with my purchase. Update not even a week later they got the new mirror to me and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase!!! So beautiful"

If you're really tight on space, then combining two pieces of furniture into one package is the ultimate answer. This makeup vanity could easily double as a nightstand thanks to the unique design and slightly lowered set of three drawers. The chest of drawers is also adjustable, in case you'd prefer more or less nightstand space. On the vanity end, it comes with a lit mirror that can slide back and forth to access shelf storage behind it. A stool with velvet cushion is also included, but unfortunately it doesn't provide any storage. With a white base and gold hardware and finishes, it'll add a glam touch to any small bedroom.

Positive review: "This vanity is the highlight of my bedroom. The lighting effects of the vanity are the highlight as it helps to apply my makeup more efficiently and the white and gold helps to brighten the area."

Looking for a sleek and chic piece that'll match with your minimalist aesthetic? Then look no further than this gorgeous makeup vanity. While it doesn't have bulky cabinets or open shelving, that doesn't means it sacrifices storage for style. Two large drawers are seamlessly hidden beneath the all-white counter, and the top allows for plenty of space if you do decide to add some shelving. We also love the absence of upper shelving and the clean look it provides, with just the lit mirror visible.

Positive review: "Very easy to set up. Looks great and perfect for what I wanted with a minimalist, Scandi x Boho aesthetic. The different light options are nice and the drawers give you ample space in addition to the space on top of the vanity. Im considering reupholstering the chair cushion into something funkier than the drab beige, but its great for what it is."

If you're down to a corner spot for your new makeup vanity, then your options will be a bit more limited when it comes to finding the perfect fit, but we tracked it down. This vanity takes up little space but still provides plenty of functionality, with cabinets along one side and hanging storage for brushes and tools on the other. We also love the tri-fold mirror that gives this vanity an elegant and chic appearance that would trick anyone into thinking it's way more expensive than the $200 price tag.

Positive review: "Looks even better in person than on the site. My daughter has limited space in her new room but this is perfect. Fits in the corner the lighting options are great. Ample storage space even a usb port. The quality is excellent"

If you've got a serious makeup collection, then you're going to want a vanity that has a lot of storage, and this one fills the bill. It has five drawers in addition to open shelving, as well as a large trifold lit mirror. You'd probably need a tall stool for this vanity, but we love that the height adds so much room for storage. You could even add hooks to the sides to hang electric hair tools and brushes.

Positive review: "I’m really surprised how great this vanity table is! Easy to put together and it fit into the corner nicely, since we didn’t have much room to put a vanity. But provided lots of storage space to place my make up items."

Not everyone is into the overly glam style of many vanities on the market nowadays, and don't worry if you're one of them — there's still options out there for you! Take this rustic-style beauty, for instance. It has everything you'd expect in a traditional vanity, like a lit mirror, plenty of storage (open shelving and drawers), and an outlet, but would fit perfectly in any masculine or rustic-style room.

Positive review: "This vanity is absolutely adorable! Fast shipping. Now it does take some time to put together. (Its quite the task) but it was perfect for my daughters room! The vanity lights are LED and you can brighten or dim them. There is a USB port to charge a phone and also 2 plug ins. Plenty of drawer space! It's a teeny bit smaller than I thought it would be but it fits perfectly in her bedroom! She absolutely loves it. Definitely worth the money!"

You might not be into the clean, all-white look of some of the vanities on this list if your style sways more French country, which is why we added this gorgeous option. Everything from the arched supports to the woodworking detail is the classic French country style, but this gorgeous vanity comes in at under $250. The fold-down mirror also makes this a multi-functional piece: you could easily use it as a desk or nightstand with the mirror folded down.

Positive review: "Overall pretty happy with this vanity....my only complaint, which is my fault for not taking the time to check the measurements, is that it is much smaller than I was expecting. It doesn't fill the space I had planned for it well. Luckily I also don't plan on using the interior mirror much as when I sit on the stool with the mirror up my head is totally cut off. I do love the finish of this piece and it does seem to be better quality than some other newer furniture out there today."

This chic vanity will fit in with even the ritziest of rooms. It features a glass top with another glass shelf a few inches below, a faux-fur upholstered stool, and glamorous gold hardware. While it does have a mirror, this vanity sacrifices a few of the more practical features of other vanities on this list for that sleek style, like hidden storage space and lighting.

Positive review: "I replaced a smaller vanity set (makeup table) in the dressing room with this unit and what an improvement. The packaging was excellent with zero dings or damage to the contents. The entire unit is assembled with an Allen wrench which is included. Both the table and stool are sturdy. Assembly is fairly straight forward although the instructions are a little vague in a few places."

Compact yet gorgeous, this metal and glass vanity doesn't take up too much visual real estate in a room, something we love for smaller spaces. Reviewers love how easy it is to put together and how incredibly well-built it is. It doesn't have any hidden storage and the mirror is unlit, but we'd be okay with that if it meant getting ready here every morning!

Positive review: "Product is exactly as shown - easy to assemble and the color is exactly what I wanted a soft brown bronze - this is a GREAT piece big style for small spaces."

This stunning vanity is sure to be one of the most unique you'll find on the market. With a beautiful bone inlay blue-and-white vine pattern that's reminiscent of Mediterranean style, it'll stand out and surely be a statement piece in any room. While this vanity features three deep drawers that'll hold plenty of getting-ready necessities, you'll need to grab your own mirror and stool.

Positive review: "I had been looking at this for a very long time, We moved and I had a place for a make up vanity so ordered immediately. It looks even better in person, very heavy and quality. Statement piece which which catches eyes. Been using for a few months now, Comfortable and easy to clean too."

Take one look at all the storage this vanity provides and you'll see exactly why "ultimate" made it into the name. It features one extra-deep drawer, two average sized drawers, a short narrow drawer, a fold-up mirror with storage underneath, and a fold-up side panel with a spot to store keep jewelry hidden. All this and it comes in an incredibly beautiful package. What more could you ask for?

Positive review: "I love the Adair! The best part is that my blowdryer and curling iron are tucked away in a drawer and has enough space for brushes!"

Finding a vanity that fits in with a more modern aesthetic is tough, but not impossible. This Sarah Sherman piece strikes the balance between beauty and efficiency beautifully, with a sleek, large drawer and a circular mirror that fits in perfectly with the aesthetic. While you'd be giving up built-in lighting, we think the storage space is more than enough for most people.

Want a vanity that'll blend perfectly with the '50s and '60s vibes in your home? Look no further. The clean lines and angled legs of this vanity are the definition of Mid-century style, along with the sleek fixtures. It also features plenty of storage space, with five drawers of different sizes. Topped off with a large mirror, this cool-looking vanity has it all.
