One of the secrets in applying flawless make up is the use of an appropriate mirror. There are a number of different types of mirror that one can use when doing her make up. Whether you apply your make up inside your bathroom, bedroom or car, light plays a major role—and the mirror that you use affects this lighting.
Vanity Mirror
A vanity mirror usually refers to the small mirror found inside a motor vehicle, the one that is used by the driver or passenger when checking one’s appearance while seated in the car. It is usually found on the inside of a sun visor. The vanity mirror can also be attached to a vanity table or dressing table and is traditionally round or oval. You will notice that the more modern vanity mirrors come in various shapes and sizes. The bigger ones may come in a set of two or three mirrors, each one giving a view of a different angle of your face. There are also vanity mirrors with built-in day lights.
Bathroom Mirror
If you are buying or building bathroom mirrors, you can choose its size, shape and finish depending on how you want it to match your bathroom theme or décor. Normally, bathroom mirrors are mounted on the wall, but there are also stand-alone bathroom mirrors for full body viewing. Regular make up users usually opt to put vanity mirror lights around the edges of the mirror to provide day light effect. Make up experts advise that the best degree of lighting to be used when putting on make up is something that is very similar to day light. Additionally, there are mirror defoggers available in the market to keep your mirror clear in a steamy bathroom.
