18 Best Lighted Makeup Mirrors, According to Reviewers

Don’t worry: The skinny in this mirror’s name refers to how thin it is, not to some misguided ability to make you look slimmer. It’s also an influencer’s dream—in addition to five stages of dimming for its LED lights, it comes with customized HD daylight lighting, a magnetic magnifying mirror, and a magnetic phone clip for—wait for it—the custom Bluetooth selfie function. “I haven’t snapped any pics of myself yet, but I’ve used this mirror daily for makeup application, especially in my dim work office, and find it to be a really useful tool in accurate foundation matching,” says Perrie Samotin, Glamour digital director.

The mirror is a favorite of professional makeup artists Ashleigh Ciucci and Douglas Otero because of its low profile, collapsible body, and white- and yellow-light options that are ideal for all skin tones. “It holds a six-hour charge at full power, so you can easily take it on vacation or to the office for afternoon touch-ups,” says Ciucci. The Riki is a bit of a splurge, but if you’re looking for a mirror that’ll make you look better on Instagram or YouTube, this is it.

• Magnification: 5x
• Dimensions: 9.5 x 13 inches

This top-rated, TikTok-loved vanity makeup mirror is basically the Cadillac of lighted makeup mirrors—and it comes with the price tag to confirm it. But what it sets you back financially, it more than makes up for with its high-tech capabilities and five-year warranty. First, let’s talk about its magnification. It comes with three different views: 1x, 5x, and a mini 10x half-moon that’s particularly great for seeing every single lash as you put on mascara. Its lighting capabilities are also unreal. You can run your finger along the rim of the mirror to make the lighting dimmer or brighter. And it automatically lights up whenever you look into it. “My favorite part, though, is that it’s cordless,” says Glamour contributor Lindsay Schallon. Charge it with its USB cord, and it holds its juice for up to five weeks. “My colleagues can confirm I use it an obscene amount at my desk. I don’t know what I’d do without it,” she says.

• Light type: LED
• Magnification: 10x
• Dimensions: 5.3 x 9.1 x 15.6 inches
• Pros: Three levels of magnification; cordless; multiple dimming settings; lights up automatically
• Cons: Expensive

“I recently upgraded from my classic Conair mirror to this one, and I’m not disappointed,” says Glamour contributor Bella Cacciatore. “It has a large surface area so I can really see what I’m doing, yet the slim design takes up less space on my vanity than more traditional mirrors (and means more room for my ever-growing lipstick stash).” It has three different lighting settings to mirror office, daytime, and nighttime lighting, so your makeup looks correct no matter what time you’re getting ready. The best part, though, is that it’s cordless—it charges via USB—so you don’t need a plug-in. “I’ve used this mirror for over two months and never needed to charge it,” says Glamour commerce editor Malia Griggs. “It’s also just really pretty.”

• Magnification: 10x
• Dimensions: 13.39 x 6.61 inches

This throwback makeup vanity mirror is like the one your mom probably still has tucked away in her bathroom cabinet. Light hits you differently in different environments—so get ready with this mirror and you’ll be prepared for all of them. Here’s what one enthusiastic Amazon reviewer had to say: “In my opinion, no other mirror compares to this. The ones with incandescent bulbs give off far too much heat and the light tends to be very yellow, which often has me skipping the bronzing powder and leaving the house looking like Casper. The light from this mirror’s bulbs are in the ‘Goldilocks zone’: not too cool, not too warm…just right.”

• Magnification: 5x
• Dimensions: 9.55 x 2.5 inches
