Lighted makeup mirrors and 3 way mirrors

Every woman should have a lighted make up mirror in her boudoir. For decades, these mirrors have been a staple of a woman’s beauty toolkit and are just as popular today as they have ever been. They come in many different designs and are used at home or work, and even come in sizes small enough to keep in a purse or handbag.

At Lightedmakeupmirror.net, we believe that these mirrors are icons of the glamour world. They conjure up images of impeccably dressed starlets primping for their close-up, while practicing their most smoldering, passionate facial expressions. Our website was designed to provide information about these vanity mirrors to anyone that is interested in their history, and their future. The information we provide is designed to be as unbiased as possible, without regard to anyone company or manufacturer.

Lighted make up mirrors have but one basic function, and that is to make the details of the face more visible. This is done so that make up can be as perfectly applied as possible. While this is especially important for those that spend a lot of time in front of a camera, many women feel these mirrors are essential for anyone that wears make up. Many girls grow up watching their mothers apply make up while sitting in front of one of these mirrors, and most do so themselves when they grow up.

There are many, many design options when looking for lighted make up mirrors. Arguably the most classic of these designs is the simple mirror on a pedestal. These mirrors are designed to sit atop any flat counter or desk surface, and have a rotating housing that holds two different mirrors. On one side is a standard mirror, and on the other is a magnification mirror. In most cases, both sides are lighted, with the standard side being used for basic make up application and the magnified side being used for fine details. These were commonly seen in the dressing rooms of many movie stars during the “golden age” of Hollywood.

There are, of course, many variations on this classic design. Some mirrors incorporate an adjustable height mechanism, whether it is through a “scissor” mechanism or by some other means. This makes the mirrors a bit more flexible in their use. There are also mirrors that utilize a mirror within a mirror idea; with a small magnified mirror being incorporated into a corner of the standard mirror. Wall mounted lighted make up mirrors are also popular variations on this theme. The advantage of a wall mounted mirror is that it can just be swung out of the way when not needed and does not occupy any counter space. And when a touch up is needed while away from home, there is always the compact. These mirrors are small enough to fit inside a handbag, but can be extremely useful for the woman on the go.
