Lighted Makeup Mirrors
The best lighted makeup mirrors can make a huge difference in the natural look of your face indoors and out.
They are a necessary part of any woman's beauty area. They provide equal lighting to the entire face without shadowing, so that you can apply makeup evenly and spot imperfections quickly.
Most lighted makeup mirrors have a magnification side too. This makes it easy to cover tough areas, floss your teeth, and remove facial hair.
If
you use a regular mirror, it is likely that the light from outside will
differ a lot. This can make your foundation look too dark for your
skin, or show unevenly blended areas.
High
quality makeup mirrors will simulate natural sunlight for even
application, for all those times when it isn't reasonable to apply your
makeup outside.
Some of the
better models even have night and day light settings. As the old adage
goes, you get what you pay for when it comes to makeup mirrors. Spending
extra money upfront for a quality lighted mirror will serve you much
better than skimping on a cheaper one.

The SLV410 is a pretty mirror has a standard mirror side and a magnification side. This side is a 10x mirror that is equally sized to the 1x. The Zadro also features surround lighting that can be brightened or dimmed depending on your preferences.
Another important thing to look for in a lighted mirror is fluorescent lighting. Because fluorescent light resembles natural sunlight more than a typical bulb, you are more likely to see even application outdoors with a fluorescent-lit mirror than a standard one.

is a wall mounted version of the SLV410 mentioned earlier. Its also a hair cheaper too.

Lighted make up mirrors should last you many years so don't be afraid to choose a better version for the long term. My mother is still using hers 30 years later.
