Makeup Lights

What is a Makeup light?

A makeup light (also called a vanity light, mirror light or Hollywood light) is a light fixture that is installed near a mirror to provide additional, excellent and flattering illumination - most often in bathrooms, bedrooms and movie sets.

Makeup Lighting Tips

• For superior makeup lighting, it is critical to have lights on the left, right and above the mirror. Lights should be positioned about 80mm from the edge of the mirror.
• If the makeup light is dimmable, then definitely install a dimmer. Good makeup requires perfect lighting.
• Makeup lighting should be uniform and bright so use frosted globes with high lumen levels.
• For applying makeup, it is recommended that cool white globes are used, rather than warm white.
• Stay away from cheap fluorescent lights. LED lights and globes will create the best effect.
