10x Makeup Mirror
A 10x makeup mirror provides a high level of magnification that is perfect for a range of beauty needs. From applying eye makeup to eyebrow tweezing, putting on lip liner to blending makeup colors, a good cosmetic mirror is at the top of the list when it comes to a woman's beauty tools. When it comes time for him to shave, your husband may even get some use out of your 10x mirror to avoid those nasty nicks and cuts!

For the average woman, having a high level of magnification when applying makeup or doing other facial grooming is important. It will help you identify imperfections and cover them quickly and easily. It will ensure you are putting your best face forward every day.
For women who wear glasses, a 10x makeup mirror is also a big help. Applying any makeup, and especially eye makeup, can be difficult with a standard mirror. Even the 1x magnification often found on the reverse of many cosmetic mirrors may not be much help. Magnifications for cosmetic mirrors generally range from slight (1x) to high (12x), and women with vision corrective eyewear may benefit from the higher levels of magnification.
Lighting
If you are able to apply your makeup in natural daylight, or have a brightly lit makeup vanity, bathroom, or other area with direct lighting, you may not need a 10x makeup mirror with lighting. For many women, however, the precision lighting many cosmetic mirrors provide is a coveted companion to the powers of magnification.
Many of today's lighted makeup mirrors have different light adjustments to mimic different settings, such as:
- Natural daylight
- Evening light
- Home lighting
- Office lighting
Depending on the style of mirror, the lighting may be:
- Around the rim or edge of the mirror, known as diffuse or halo lighting, and are often seen in circular mirrors.
- Stem from a central source, a phenomenon known as spotlighting.
- Side lighting, which are strips of lights along the mirror's side.
Styles of 10x Mirrors
10x makeup mirrors may be round, oval, square, or rectangular. They may be free standing, handheld, or wall-mountable. Typical styles either contain a standard mirror on one side and flip to reveal the 10x magnification, or consist of a central mirror offset with panels or wings.
Magnifying cosmetic travel mirrors are also popular essentials for women on the go. Some styles even include portable wall-mountings, such as suction cups, that can be transported and affixed in hotel bathrooms, or dressing areas during your travels.

Shopping for Your Mirror
Magnifying makeup mirrors are available in discount and department stores, such as Target and Wal-Mart, drug stores, beauty supply stores, specialty stores, and a plethora of online venues. Since 10x makeup mirrors provide such a high level of magnification, they may not be as readily available as the standard 5x makeup mirrors.
Pricing varies according to the style and size of the mirror. Although many stores offer decent cosmetic mirrors, professional, or distortion-free mirrors promise an optimum level of quality.
Brands that produce 10x makeup mirrors include:
- Revlon
- Swissco
- Tweezerman
- Jerdon
- Mevedo
- Zadro
- Conair
When shopping for your mirror, keep mind that you may need: a small or compact size to keep in your purse or makeup bag, a medium size for travel, and larger size for daily or more frequent home use.
