How to choose a vanity light for your house?

Vanity lights are a particular subset of lighting fixtures designed to be mounted above the bathroom vanity. The vanity area is typically comprised of a vanity sink, countertop, and vanity mirror. A proper bathroom lamp can give your bathroom a pleasant glow, adding lively and elegant colors to your life.

What's Vanity Light?

Vanity lighting is characterized by multiple lights on a single mount or base and it is usually installed above the mirror in the bathroom. You can install the fixture in two light directions (bulb facing up or down) as you like.

Lighting fixtures mounted over the mirror work well in bathrooms with tall ceilings since they draw the eye upward and play into the verticality of the space by adding a focal point up high.

Generally, these fixtures should be installed with the shades orientated in a downward cast to ensure plenty of light reaches your face. It allows you to be sure every area of a room is properly illuminated, no matter the room or demand.
