The 16 Vanity Mirrors That Promise the Best Glow



You needn’t be a social media star to a lighted vanity mirror to your dressing room or bathroom. As they remove any shadows that uneven light can produce, they are perfect for makeup application or other grooming activities. There are, technically speaking, two types: the backlit (where the light source is behind the mirror, usually creating a ring around it) and the typical, lighted vanities (which are lit on the top of the glass or just underneath it). The size of your bathroom counter or sink determines which style is best for you, freestanding or wall-mounted.
