I think vanity is combined with arrogance; confidence is something different.

If I look in reflective surfaces whenever I pass by them, friends call me vain, but I personally think that's far from true. Checking to make sure you look OK is different from admiring your own beauty - if anything, it means you're more insecure than vain.

I rarely wear lots of make-up (can't figure it all out for a start), but wearing it doesn't make you vain at all, IMO. It's all about the attitude.
