Makeup ring lights with mirror

When it comes to putting on makeup, it is very convenient to use a mirror to see what you are doing at all times. There are two types of mirrored light rings. First, we have the rings of light that bring a mirror inside which we can remove and put. On the other hand, we have circular mirrors with lights on the edges inside.

These mirrors with lights inside are ideal for a makeup session with professional lighting. Some of them have the touch on/off switch on the bottom inside of the mirror.

What is a makeup ring light for?

The light ring offers better illumination, highlighting all the details of the face, eliminating shadows and making it look sharper. Ideal if you dedicate yourself to the following areas:

• Makeup blogging video
• Makeup Videos on YouTube
• Facebook live makeup
• Makeup photography

How to use the ring light for makeup

The key is in the distance. It is not recommended that you get too close to the ring of light, since a very intense light can damage our eyesight, in addition to camouflaging the different colors of makeup making them all look almost the same.

In most cases, you will be in a sitting position when applying makeup, so it is convenient to use light rings of medium size, with a base tripod and support for your mobile.

Use filters properly

Depending on the type of skin you have, you should use cold or warm filters. It’s all a matter of taste, but generally brown skin benefits from cold filters since the contrast between the filter and the skin produces a fresher and more striking effect.

On the contrary, very white skin benefits from warm filters. If you see that you are a little pale, this filter helps you have a healthier tan appearance.
