When the need for close inspection arises, nothing serves that need better than quality bathroom vanity lights. Specifically designed to deliver strong clear rays of light with a minimum of glare, vanity lights help you examine every detail of your face, hair, and body to apply perfect touch ups and adjustments. Essentially, they serve as another, more exacting, pair of eyes which allows you to catch details easy to miss in dimmer settings.

Finding the Ideal Bathroom Vanity Light

While most vanity lights end up installed in bathrooms, bedrooms can also benefit with the right vanity light fixtures.

Bright and clear lighting are essential features of any high-end bathroom light fixture you may acquire, but there are several ways in which to accomplish the light intensity you desire, such as:

How to Size Bathroom Vanity Lights

Determining the appropriate size for your bathroom vanity lights depends upon the size of the space you are illuminating and the type of mirror you are using. When adding lighting to mirrors hung in a portrait position meant for the use of one person, installing wall vanity lights on each side of the mirror is a popular choice. However, if this is a smaller space where wall-mounted vanity lights look too cramped on each side of the mirror, then you are better off choosing one farmhouse style vanity light with multiple bulbs centered above the mirror.

If you have a mirror hung in a landscape position, you are more likely to get better lighting result by installing one or two vanity lights above the mirror. If selecting one centered vanity light for a long length mirror, you should look at larger models which span across longer spaces and accommodate three or four light bulbs in its fixture.

Bathroom Vanity Light Intensity and Direction

Because of the specific need for clear lighting able to reveal minor details, vanity lights are particularly designed to aid you in this goal. Still, your space will determine much of your need. For instance, bathrooms with skylights benefit from natural daylight and may consequently have less need for bright indoor lighting. That is countered, of course, by overcast or stormy days, so balancing natural and electric lights is still required.

Also, these factors will play into the amount of intensity and the direction of your lights:

Size/Shape of Fixture - long rectangular vanity lights deliver much more illumination than lights posted on each side of a mirror
Number of Bulbs - more light bulbs (and higher wattage) leads to bright lighting for your area
Shade Opacity - some glass shades are transparent, while others contain degrees of opacity to mute the direct lighting

By balancing out the above factors, along with selecting the look which appeals most to your taste, you can find the ideal lighting intensity and flow for each area you install vanity lights.

Installing a Bathroom Vanity Light

Unless you are working with a new addition or a newly constructed home, you already have lights in the bathroom area.

There are lots of good generic instructions to walk you through the process; we found this guide to replace bathroom vanity lights particularly helpful with its good clear steps and pictures.

If the installation is not replacing an existing fixture, but wiring is already in place, your job just got easier by 50%, since you don't have to remove any old fixtures. This guide for installing luxury vanity lights gives some good general electrical safety and code tips when adding a new bathroom vanity light.

Be sure to follow these general home improvement safety tips whenever working with lights:

Know Your Limits - if you feel this task is beyond your skill level, trust that instinct and hire a handyperson to do the job
Use Good Tools - proper quality tools make the job easier and safer
Create Work Space - climbing over cords, boxes, and stools and digging around for pieces makes the job longer and more difficult than need be
Read Instructions First - hours of frustration can be saved by reading instructions before diving into any project
Steady Support - when working on vanities or other fixtures above your head's height, use stable ladders or step stools
