How to Select a Bathroom Mirror Style

Mirror, mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all? In the name of style and reflection, not all here are created equal. The choices and objectives with bathroom design are numerous, and often times the mirror does not receive as much attention as it gets after installation.

Applying makeup and shaving are a couple of the most important activities in the bathroom, often done without proper lighting or consideration of magnification. Serious contemplation must be given to each person’s need.  Style alone cannot win.

Mirrors can be stylish, interesting, and yes even fog-free. Take a look at some of these mirrors and decide for yourself which is the fairest of them all.

Aluminum Series Mirror by Sonia
Aluminum Series Mirror by Sonia

This is the Aluminum Series Mirror by Sonia. It completely eliminates the need to have a nearby tabletop or wall mount magnifying mirror. They have a magnet placed on a pendulum behind the plate glass mirror, which attracts a magnet that is concealed into the mini magnifying mirror. This allows the user to slide the small mirror anywhere on the large mirror. Bonus, when not in use, it can be pulled off the surface and stored away. Genius.

If you are anything like me, it is a challenge to keep countertops clean on a daily basis.  This mirror by Hastings allows me to relax with its elegant design.

Now Robern by Kohler
