When you put on makeup you need to see as other people will see. Lighted makeup mirrors permit you to do precisely that by using artificial light that looks like natural sunshine.

That's wonderful for all day, but what about the night. Some mirrors have this addressed too by presenting you the alternative of imitating night lighting also. In either case, you'll be obtaining a proper look at how others will see you no matter what the social occasion.

There are many reasons why you'll want to use a lighted makeup mirror. For starters, you see everything on your face extremely clear. No more embarassing moments should you happen to miss an area with your blush. You'll notice immediately. Small blemishes or stray hairs will be easily discovered too. Plus if you get magnification, it is even simpler to see everything. No need to put makeup on around your spectacles if you wear them.

The kind of illumination you get is up to you. There are various different selections. The lights may surround the edge of the mirror (halo lighting), be located down the two sides or across the top and bottom (side-lighting), or possess a central hidden source (spot-lighting). Another handy feature is the swivel hinge so you can move the mirrors to the position you want. And of course magnification, which you almost certainly will require. The enlargement is normally about 4X to 5X, but can be purchased in smaller and higher levels, all the way from 1X to 10X.

And for the woman on the go, a lighted travel mirror is just as important as your mirror at home.
