Writer's picture: Role DoRole Do

Let’s talk a bit more about mirrors for women out there. The best makeup lighting simulates natural light it’s not too bright, and it’s a seamless blend of blueish and orangish hues. Nevertheless, you may not permanently want daylight illumination. Perhaps you’re going out to a dimly lit nightclub, and you want to ensure your makeup looks right there. If you need that variety, choose a makeup mirror with lights and magnification that has warmer color temperature settings.


Choosing your level of magnification can be a difficult task. A makeup mirror with led lights range from 2x, which provides a boost, so you don’t have to lean and squint to do your eyeliner, to 15X, which zooms in on your face. One setting may be too slight the other may be large.





Anything above 5x is a very high magnification. If you have a tabletop mirror with 5x, you won’t be able to see your whole face. If you’re doing thorough eye or lip designs, you’ll want to zoom in. Certainly, trifold mirrors often have 2x, 3x, and 5x panels that allow you can increase the magnification when needed. Do you wear glasses or contacts that you take away to do makeup? Whether you have a self-supporting or mounted magnifying mirror with light, you can go a little higher with your magnification, like 10x to 15x.


Tabletop mirrors permit you to get closer, so you don’t need super-high magnification. 2x to 5x is appropriate for most people. Also, numerous freestanding lighted makeup mirrors have both a magnifying and non-magnifying side, so you can still do full-face makeup without any hassle. Wall-mounted magnifying makeup mirror magnification often has higher magnification so that you can still see clearly from more than a few inches away. However, Hollywood-style mirrors often don’t have magnification at all. These mirrors are ideal for full-face makeup because you can see everything at once.
