My Makeup Studio!

I have just set up a makeup studio in my home office and I love it!

I spent the Easter break decorating, sourcing furniture and finding storage solutions and I am really pleased with the results.  A clean, minimalist working space with a little added glamour.

I chose the Ikea 'Malm' Vanity unit http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/10203610/ as it is perfect with it's glass top it is great for wiping clean easily after makeup and also has a built in drawer for ample storage.

I opted for clear 'Godmorgon'  http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/70177477/ tabletop storage from Ikea as this is great for me to easily access tissues, cotton buds and pads.  Inside the drawer I added a few Ikea 'Kuggis' storage boxes http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/10280203/#/20280207

I have always wanted a light up hollywood mirror and I can honestly say my dreams have come true with this purchase from http://www.illuminated-mirrors.uk.com/bathroom-mirrors/hollywood-mirrors.html. I went for warm white LED bulbs so that they will give me great lighting for makeup and will last longer than ordinary bulbs.

I love my little addition of a lightbox from http://www.whitemint.co.uk

I also have created "Vogue corner".  I think it is fitting with all the issues I have collected over the years.

My first client was lovely Hazel who had her bridal makeup trial today and is getting married in August 2016.
