10X Makeup Mirror

A 10x makeup mirror is usually a very small magnification mirror that's designed to be transported around in a woman's handbag, to be taken out whenever makeup needs applying.

They're very useful when you're trying to cover small imperfections because it means that you can use makeup without having to bombard the area with it. It allows you to target small and specific areas and apply your makeup much more accurately than using a regular mirror.

The fact that it's a 10x magnification mirror really helps it achieves this goal, because it effectively presents a zoomed in image of your face. This means it's much easier to see where the small problem areas are – such as small outbreaks of blackheads or acne. From here the application of makeup is applied, but the main difference using this method as opposed to using a normal mirror is that you can apply only the smallest amount of makeup and still cover the area.

If you had a normal mirror you would not be able to see almost as clearly so it would mean that to make sure you had covered everything you'd applied more than you needed. As soon as you apply more than you need then it makes it look like you're trying to cover something up, as well as making it look like you wear too much makeup in general.

They're really great gadgets, but they're surprisingly expensive and can cost 20-70 dollars very easily. However I would not let the price put you off because you can use the 10x makeup mirror for life. Not only this, but can you really put a price on your confidence – 20 dollars seems reasonable for you to feel great and confident about yourself and your looks.
