From beauty blenders to brushes, here’s no shortage of tools we can utilise to nail the perfect finish on our makeup. What we achieve in our bathroom mirror however, can end up looking drastically different in a new light.

Who hasn’t at some point looked back at a photo and wondered how they missed an unblended line or over-contoured cheekbone? Or perhaps you nailed your shade match in your bedroom mirror, only to discover you’d been betrayed by your new foundation in the light of day.

But there’s one not-so-secret (but certainly under-utilised) beauty tool that promises to deliver a flawless finish with every application: the makeup mirror.

A makeup mirror or makeup light uses LED light to mimic natural sunlight, so you can see exactly what your skin will look like when you step out the front door. With the lighting pointed directly at your face (rather than coming from above or below) you can avoid shadows and lulls in brightness that also impact the way you apply your makeup.

Ready to level up your makeup game? Below, we round up the best makeup mirrors to help nail your next makeup application.
