I purchased this mirror to help me apply my make-up more evenly and to help my detailed concealer and foundation application go more smoothly. At my age, the wrinkles around my eyes and the circles and bags under my eyes need extra attention and using this mirror helps me see much more clearly and helps ensure I apply make-up products evenly and successfully to address these problem areas! I would definitely recommend to anyone but for those who need very close up images and bright lighting while applying makeup or doing anything to your face, this is a must!!!
