3. Best Bathroom Magnifying Mirror: American Imaginations Stainless Steel Wall Mount Oval Mirror
I love two main features about this wall-mounted magnifying mirror that justify the splurge. First, the oval shape not only looks lovely, it complements the shape of your face when you are applying makeup. Second, one side is a regular mirror and the other side flips to be a 3x magnifying mirror. The contemporary, brushed nickel looks great with many different bathroom styles. I also find the swivel arm of wall-mounted mirrors helpful for maintaining those fabulous brows.

Yes, you can still have a wall-mounted magnifying mirror without spending a fortune, especially if you’d like an additional one in your guest room or bedroom. This one is double-sided, offering one side as a normal mirror and the other 5x magnification. And all that for around $25!

It’s small but mighty: this little mirror offers excellent clarity for such a compact magnifying mirror. It has 15x magnification and suction cups.

I’m looking for a 10x vanity mirror, lighted, that doesn’t distort when your a foot away, or if your up close to it for tweezing. I have had dozens mailed to my house and I return them all. I know they are out there because I have one but it doesn’t light up. Mine is 20 years old and I love it but I need the light now. I read so much about mirrors and I disagree with a lot of what is said.
There aren’t any great mirrors, any longer. But for women with vision unlike ours these are good. You and I have to do the best we can. If you find the perfect mirror, please, please let me know and I will announce it to our women and acknowledge you. Thank you for sharing. Warmly, Honey

Zadro makes the best 15 mag. mirror!

Would you comment on facial hair removers please?
Olay made a great one but no longer does. What’s a great replacement. Self care methods only!
What “appliance” works best? There is one advertised on tv but I think it’s just an electric shaver in a lipstick tube. Ads say you can use every day! That’s not what we ladies need. We need a hair remover not a shaver.
What is safe, not creating more hair and easy to use?
Please help!
Thanks!

My girlfriend uses a little electric type shaver and loves it. The hair does not grow back thicker. Also, there is the old fashioned wax. I use to watch my girlfriend in college wax her face and legs. She had a tin of wax that she heated and a stick like the Doctor used to put on our tongue to see our throat. When it dried, she ripped off the wax. Two choices. I would go for #1!!! Warmly, Honey
I once had a Conair mirror it was a plug-in not battery operated and it was dual-sided and the magnified side was 80 times magnification I can now not find any that are above 20. What happened?
