Having a designated space to get ready in the morning is a small luxury, but it's one that makes all the difference. If you've ever tried getting pretty at the tiny bathroom counter or in the car on the way to work, you know firsthand how difficult it can be. With a vanity, not only are your most beloved beauty products available for easy access, they're also on display — because when they look this pretty, they should definitely be part of the decor. Ahead are four simple tips to make your beauty station shine.

Add fresh flowers
Nothing makes a space come alive more than a plant or fresh flowers. A small succulent is great for keeping on hand since they're low-maintenance, while the occasional seasonal bouquet is a luxurious pick-me-up. With a bouquet, once it starts to wither, simply separate the stems that are still holding up into smaller, single-bud vases to disperse around the vanity.

Use pretty trays to corral your things
Keeping your beauty favorites in a tray or on a platter will keep your surface organized. A mirrored tray adds a touch of glam, and styling products of varying heights together will add depth and interest. Keep taller items, like bottles or jars, to the back, and bring smaller items, like jewelry, to the front.

Display your favorite perfume bottles
Perfume bottles are meant to be shown off. Group them together in vignettes around your vanity, especially in areas that catch a lot of light. The Vera Wang Embrace trio comes in a variety of soft pastel hues that are perfect for adding a touch of romance to any tabletop.

Don't overclutter the surface
Last but not least, keep your surface clutter-free. Getting ready in a clean environment will help you start your day fresh — both mentally and physically!
