Shopping for the best makeup mirrors

Whether you are shaving or applying makeup, magnifying makeup mirrors offer so many beauty and care benefits. When choosing the makeup and magnifying mirror for your bathroom there are many things to consider. Professional makeup mirrors can either be battery operated makeup mirrors or hardwired makeup mirrors. Top rated makeup mirrors are usually available in many magnifications. If you are looking for a higher zoom, you might want to consider a large makeup mirror such as 10x makeup mirrors, 15x makeup mirrors, or 20x makeup mirrors. If you are looking for a less magnified option, small makeup mirror options include 3x makeup mirrors, 5x makeup mirrors, or 7x makeup mirrors. Another feature you will have to decide on is whether or not you want lighting on your makeup mirror. Lighted makeup mirrors are a great option for additional clarity. Most makeup mirrors with lights use LED bulbs for longer lasting use.

Next, you will need to choose the installation of your makeup mirror. If you lack counter or vanity space, wall mounted makeup mirrors are a perfect option for you. Wall magnifying mirrors offer all the benefit of countertop and table makeup mirrors, while adding a modern clean look. If you would like the flexibility to move your makeup mirror, countertop makeup mirrors or tri-fold makeup mirrors are what you are looking for. Table makeup mirrors sit on your vanity top and offer quick accessibility and are easy mobility. If you would like to travel with your mirror, then a portable makeup mirror or travel makeup mirror is a great choice. Simply fold your small travel mirror and place it into your makeup bag and you are ready to go on your next trip. Cosmetic makeup mirrors and shaving mirrors are available in many shapes and finishes. Makeup mirror shapes include round makeup mirrors and square makeup mirrors and popular finishes include chrome, gold, brushed nickel and matte black.

Makeup and shaving mirrors for beauty and personal care

It all depends on your setup and whether you plan on using your mirror in your bedroom (on your makeup vanity or dresser) or your bathroom. If you plan on using it in your bedroom, you might opt for a standing mirror or even a handheld or travel makeup mirror which can be used on-the-go. If you have ample space and care about convenience, you could go for a hollywood vanity mirror with lights. A tri fold mirror is another great idea that is very affordable.

Bathroom mirrors can be free-standing as well, but wall mounted makeup mirrors are really popular. You can install a wall mount makeup mirror to your line of sight and get an up-close and personal look at your face, especially if you choose an extendable and adjustable mirror. Choose the magnification you desire and take note of the lighting in your bathroom. If it's not bright enough or a little bit dimmed in your bathroom you can illuminate your space and get a clearer view of yourself with a lighted mirror.

Of course before you start shopping for the perfect makeup mirror, read makeup mirror reviews to find a one that fits your budget, whether you are looking for a makeup mirror on sale or a luxury makeup mirror.

Shopping for makeup mirrors with lights

Lighted makeup mirrors can help make your grooming routine a breeze. Here are a few shopping tips for choosing the best makeup mirrors to buy for your bathroom: First, look at the lumen rating of the bulb which gives you an idea about the brightness of the makeup mirror light -- the higher the lumen rating the brighter it will be. The Kelvin scale tells you the hue or color of the light. Most people like a more natural light for their mirrors, which would fall in the mid-range of the Kelvin scale. The most popular type of bulb for makeup mirrors is the LED makeup mirror because it lasts 2-5x as long as fluorescent makeup mirrors. Finally, consider the location of your closest electric source and whether you want a cordless, hardwired makeup mirror, or one with a cord or a rechargeable battery.

The best makeup mirror magnifications for you

Higher magnifications are really helpful when you need to get a really detailed view of your face, pores, skin, or eyebrows. Some high-end makeup and shaving mirrors even give you the luxury of having two different magnification strengths, one on each side of the mirror. This is called a 2-sided or 2-faced magnifying mirror. These mirrors can easily be flipped because of their easy-to-use swivel design. Common magnifications for makeup mirrors are 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 7x, and 10x. Each magnification can be used for a different purpose -- shaving, applying makeup, plucking your eyebrows, washing your face, or even just brushing your hair.
