NICE MIRROR but not exactly what I wanted. [SEP] I like this mirror. I bought it to use when I'm applying my makeup at night. I usually apply makeup with natural day time light, because its the best way to do it. This mirror has three different lights for applying makeup, but I can't say any of the lights are actually like natural light. I just don't think the lights are bright enough. They certainly aren't like what you would get from a vanity bathroom mirror. That was a disappointment. Also you should know that this mirror will show every flaw on your face, and I'm not talking about the magnified side. However I think that's good because it helps you cover the flaws better. Overall I like the mirror, love that it can be plugged into an outlet in the event you run out of batteries. It's not exactly what I wanted, but it serves other purposes well.
