If you like to have a well-lit area to do your makeup, relying on a hotel vanity while you travel is a bit of a risk. Instead, we recommend bringing along a lightweight, packable lighted makeup mirror to ensure you have ample light to complete your makeup look to perfection.

A lighted makeup mirror can also help you see better if you have an extensive skin care routine. They may have a variety of features including warmer or colder light options, magnification settings, and more. Just make sure you pack a lighted makeup mirror that is durable for travel (meaning it folds into a sturdy shape that isn’t too heavy or bulky) and a travel adapter if the mirror is USB-charged. Read on for our list of the best ones to shop right now.
