How to choose a cosmetic magnifying mirror?

Now it is impossible to imagine our life without mirrors. Makeup, washing, hair, combing and just looking at yourself - all this can be done by looking into a mirror. Moreover, both women and men need it equally. New technologies do not stand still. And today there are many different types of these products. One of their main advantages is illumination and magnifying ability.

No cosmetic procedure can do without this attribute. One of the main advantages of such devices is lighting. If in the daytime it is not strongly required, then in the evening and at night it is simply indispensable. At a later time, the light dims and does not reflect details well. Universal illuminated cosmetic mirrors are a wise solution to this problem. Also, the mirror surface is able to enlarge the image so that you can do makeup more efficiently.

Functions of mirror surfaces:

• Rotation. The rotation of such mirrors can reach different inclinations. The most impressive are 180 and 360 degree turns.
• Reflection. Mirrors have two reflections: real and magnified. The second is more suitable for creating high-quality makeup.
• Mobility.Cosmetic magnifying mirror is better to choose a small size.
• Compatibility. There are special options for mounting on a bedside table or a small table.

Now there are many types of mirror surfaces: round, rectangular, oval. The size of such products plays a certain role in makeup. Consider their features.

The optical properties of mirrors can help magnify an image from 2x to 10x. An enlarged image, for example, 5 times, allows you to deeply care for the skin of the face, notice hidden problem areas of the skin, and so on. The thickness of such mirrors reaches up to 6 mm. More expensive models have a high-quality image, practically do not have distortions and errors.

Such a mirror can be large and small. It is very comfortable. They can be put on the table, hung on the walls. Standard models can generally be taken with you. Due to the special coating, the mirror does not allow moisture to pass through, and its base is very stable. It can be easily hung even in the bathroom without worrying about breakage. Such mirrors are a little more expensive, since the coating contains a mixture of silver and copper. Products at a lower price are less resistant to moisture and, as a rule, are located in the hallway or toilet.

Such mirrors are used for long-term maintenance and are not recommended to be moved from place to place. Here it is important to properly hang it on the wall, choose the desired angle of inclination and height, so as not to suffer with irregularities later.However, manufacturers offer new models that can adjust the distance and angle in the desired direction. Good face lighting gives light from such mirrors.

Such a mirror cannot be moved, it is adapted to be securely fixed on a table or other surface. This option is in great demand among women, for example, from Gezatone. Firstly, the size of such a design has many useful functions. Its backlight illuminates the face well. Secondly, convenience in the make-up process. You don't have to hold a mirror in front of you. Such products are in great demand among makeup artists, cosmetologists, stylists and other beauty wizards.

Professionals always need good lighting and image magnification. Ordinary light from the lamp in the room does not help to apply good makeup, so the backlight on the mirror is a real salvation.

The higher priced mirrors provide good illumination. This is because they are silver plated. Such products are resistant to moisture and the sun, withstand high temperatures. Titanium-coated mirrors have distorted reflections. But aluminum coating gives a less clear image. But their price is much cheaper.

This is one of the main factors when choosing mirrors. After all, the ease of use and the place where it will be located depends entirely on its dimensions. The smaller the mirror, the less objects it will reflect.

For example, at a height of 40 cm, you can see your reflection up to your chest. The 60cm mirror includes a waist-length display. A 120-cm product allows you to see the image to the knee.The standard classic option is a mirror measuring 50x50 cm in the shape of a square. Such a model can be useful both at home and at work.

It is important to consider the size of the mirror. If you like to take it with you, then a small model is most suitable. If you choose the wrong size, you will experience inconvenience. Reflection will be limited.
