Latest Designer Bathroom Ideas and How To Guides for your Home

Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who’s the fairest of them all? With a designer illuminated mirror in your bathroom, the response to that question just might be, “me”. Illuminated mirrors range in style from basic, backlit mirrors to standalone illuminated mirrors with LED lighting.

When choosing a bathroom mirror, pick one that will complement the décor and hardware – mixer taps, towel rails, and shower accessories – already in your bathroom. There are several designer options available, so it shouldn’t be difficult to find one that fits.

Backlit illuminated mirrors come with multiple squares of light edging the mirror or with a frame of light. These types of mirrors, which come in a variety of sizes, usually come with a pull cord and would work well in a bathroom with a simple, modern décor.

The vertical Lelia Demista illuminated mirror has a single halogen lamp and glass shade at the top of the mirror and is fitted with a Demista heating pad to keep its image clear. The Felix Demista illuminated mirror offers a landscape option, and it has two halogen lamps and glass shades up top. Both have a pull cord.

The Aztec illuminated mirror looks more like a flat-screen TV than your typical bathroom mirror. It sits on a shelf, landscape style, and has bevelled edges. It will stay steam-free, and its LED illumination – tiny lights on the left and right – has a life span of 50,000 hours.

An illuminated mirror serves as a focal point in your bathroom, so be sure to choose one that you won’t tire of looking at over time.
