Everything You Need to Know About LED Mirrors in 2025

In 2025, LED mirrors are not a luxury: they are an everyday essential. They bring accuracy to skincare, confidence to makeup and consistency to grooming. At LUNA London, the ORBIT, ECLIPSE and COMPACT 2.0 are designed for clarity and ease of use.

What is an LED mirror

An LED mirror integrates efficient LED lighting around or within the mirror face. The aim is simple: show true tone and texture. Compared with overhead bathroom lighting, LEDs reduce shadows and colour shift. The result: what you see in the mirror matches real life.

Why LED mirrors matter in 2025

• True to life light: Daylight style LEDs help you match foundation, check texture and shape brows accurately.
• Efficient power: LEDs use less electricity and last far longer than old bulbs.
• Adaptable formats: From a bedroom vanity to a travel bag: there is a format for every routine.
• Skin awareness: Good lighting reveals early changes in tone and texture so you can adjust care promptly. See our practical guide to ingredient tracking: Skincare Ingredients Under the Lens.

The ORBIT: a statement LED vanity mirror

ORBIT is our flagship. It uses a premium aluminium body, a detachable main face and a magnetic 7x magnifier. Three light modes: warm, neutral and daylight. The design is stable, simple and precise. If you want a centrepiece that elevates a dressing area and improves accuracy: this is it.

The ECLIPSE: LED lighting you can travel with

ECLIPSE is slim, rechargeable and portable. It corrects poor lighting in hotels and rentals. Three dimmable modes adapt to any room. A protective sleeve keeps it safe in a carry on. For frequent flyers who still want precision: ECLIPSE maintains your routine anywhere.

The COMPACT 2.0: small size... serious clarity

COMPACT 2.0 slips into a handbag or backpack. It offers a standard mirror plus 7x magnification, three LED modes and convenient USB C charging. Ideal for tweezing, lens care and quick checks on the go.

LED mirrors versus traditional mirrors

Traditional mirrors rely on ambient light. That creates shadows and colour casts. LED mirrors provide consistent, close range illumination. This improves blending, lash and brow work and shaving. For a comparison of lighting approaches, read LED Mirror vs Natural Light for Skincare Routines.

How to choose the right LED mirror

• Lighting modes: Look for daylight for colour matching; warm light for a softer finish; cool white to reveal stray hairs.
• Magnification: 5x to 7x is the useful range for brows, liner and precise skincare.
• Form factor: Bedroom station or travel... choose stability for home and a protective sleeve for trips.
• Power and charging: Rechargeable batteries and USB C simplify daily use.
