Our bathrooms undoubtedly have a variety of functions – it is a place where we take a bath or shower, of course, but other than this, it is also a place where we can relax, wind down after a hard and exhausting day, and even make sure that we are physically presentable whenever we go out. 

The bathroom has definitely evolved from what it was centuries ago – it is now more functional than ever and it is also considered a major room in the home, so it has definitely become more beautiful and luxurious as well. 

If you would like to enhance the beauty and functionality of your bathroom, there is certainly one inexpensive addition that can benefit you in more ways than one: illuminated mirrors. Granted, all bathrooms have mirrors nowadays, but illuminated bathroom mirrors give any bathroom the proper light it needs to be more than practical - even beautiful and appealing as well. 

The proper lighting for your bathroom 

Most modern illuminated mirrors today come with LED lights that give a very clear, crisp, and clean light. What’s more, LED lighting is highly-energy efficient since it gives out more light without giving out too much heat. This means that you will not have to worry about your energy bill, either. With LED bathroom mirrors, you need no longer worry about trying to see yourself properly whilst in the bathroom, making grooming activities such as applying make-up or shaving much easier and more convenient.  

More versatility with sizes and designs 

Illuminated mirrors are also available in a wide variety of sizes and designs, which makes them suitable for any type or size of bathroom. You can opt for a slimmer design that fits well with your modern yet small bath, or bigger sized bathroom mirrors with lights which are more appropriate for a larger bathroom. Additionally, if you have a small area, bathroom mirror lights give your bathroom the illusion of space - making it look bigger (and brighter) as well. 

Better glass quality 

In addition to better overall lighting for your bathroom, illuminated bathroom cabinets and mirrors can also provide you with better quality glass. Compared to older or more traditional-type mirrors which merely use ordinary glass, an illuminated mirror often makes use of higher-quality glass panels that are magnified to improve your view and reflection.

Increased storage 

Apart from simple illuminated mirrors, you can also opt for illuminated mirror cabinets that give you more space, allowing you to have the extra room to store various toiletries and bathroom implements. With an illuminated bathroom cabinet, you not only have the benefit of better, more enhanced lighting – you also have the benefit of more space for storage, especially if you have a smaller, more compact bathroom area. 

Extra advanced features 

With an illuminated bathroom mirror, you also have the benefit of some great advanced features (such as the ones offered by lighted mirror specialists like Lightmirrors.co.uk) that include touch-less power sensors that allow you to turn on the lights simply by waving your hand at the bottom of the mirror, anti-mist qualities that prevent the build-up of steam on your mirror, ambient lighting that gives your bathroom a more striking look and focal point, and electric sockets that are built in at the bottom of the mirror where you can plug in devices such as shavers and electric toothbrushes.
