A table with a mirror for a skincare routine is all it takes to make us feel like starlets from the golden age of Hollywood.
Now, if you also get creative with the lighting, your vanity corner may just become your new favorite spot.
Why Do Vanity Mirror Lights Matter?
When it comes to make-up application, as well as examining your skin, the optimal lighting is natural. Natural sunlight by the window allows us to be the most precise.
However, we do often find ourselves applying make-up and skin care products in the evenings, and perhaps even more pressing, in front of the camera.
Whether you’re a content creator or just make TikToks for fun, you already know the difference that the lighting can make.
When your plain vanity mirror is combined with the correct lighting, it won’t only be your place for doing skincare and make-up.
It will also become your go-to spot for taking pictures and making reels.
We’ll go through 17 wonderfully designed vanity mirrors for your inspiration.
Vanity Mirror #1
To start off with something simple, this type of vanity mirror may be the easiest to come by in your local furniture salon.
It’s designed to fit into more or less any room, as it’s quite neutral.
The mirrors with the type of light you can see in the above picture also tend to be on the economic side.
Vanity Mirror #2
Vanity mirrors framed with LED tape have been the trend for a while now.
They’re as pretty as they’re functional. They make for a seamless and clean design, which is often exactly what we’re after when it comes to our pampering corner.
Vanity Mirror #3
Play around with the shapes and sizes, to achieve chic vibes in your vanity corner.
Round and crescent mirrors, with lights that perfectly follow their line, are a great way to refresh the style of both the vanity and the room it’s in.
Vanity Mirror #4
You may always combine LED tape with stylish wall lamps to add more brightness and character to the room.
Vanity Mirror #5
Introduce fun decor to further elevate the looks of your vanity corner.
Vanity Mirror #6
You can use your walls, curtains, and the overall predominant colors in the room in combination with the vanity corner to create the desired ambiance.
Vanity Mirror #7
Subvert expectations by getting a standing vanity for your beauty corner.
Besides, doing your makeup while sitting on the floor is a whole mood, isn’t it?
Vanity Mirror #8
A lit-up crystal frame for your vanity mirror is a sure way to achieve the look of timeless elegance.
At the same time, the crystal softens the light, creating a pleasant ambiance without hindering the lighting function.
Vanity Mirror #9
Alternatively, you could play with string lights and cotton puff to make your vanity mirror float in the clouds.
It will create the ambiance of softness which can put you in the mood for self-care on your lowest days.
Vanity Mirror #10
Vanity lights, as you can see, aren’t limited solely to modern interiors.
They work just as lovely with an antique vanity table.
Vanity Mirror #11
Lights are the key ingredient for many art deco interiors.
Elevate your own art deco vanity table with the right type of lights.
Vanity Mirror #12
Choose to pair gold accents with your vanity table. Warm LED lights contribute wonderfully to this combination.
Vanity Mirror #13
If you don’t have room for a vanity table in an area illuminated by sunlight, mirror lights can come to the rescue.
They allow for just as precise and comfortable skincare and make-up application as natural light.
Vanity Mirror #14
In case you don’t want to get LED lights, or you want to keep them minimal – there is something quite important to keep in mind.
The angle of your light is crucial, so make sure whichever type of light you get is positioned in the middle.
This allows the light to illuminate your face equally without illuminating overhead or too low.
Vanity Mirror #15
Surround your vanity with creative pendant lamps to add much-needed brightness as well as to decorate your space.
Vanity Mirror #16
Getting together for a night out is a pure girlhood experience. Though it’s always unfair that only one can do their make-up in front of the good mirror.
What if you had a twin vanity set-up, with optimal lighting on both sides?
Vanity Mirror #17
Promote the aesthetic of your vanity corner by showing off your prettiest make-up and lotions all around.
Match your colors to the tiniest detail to make self-care even more enjoyable.
In Conclusion
When it comes to vanity lighting, your main goal should be the so-called natural light emulation.
That means that the lighting allows you to put your make-up in a way that looks pretty much the same indoors, before a mirror and out there in the sunlight.
No one wants to walk around with badly blended contouring because their house light was a shade too dark.
Vanity mirror lights are the optimal solution to this issue.
