What Is a Vanity Mirror?

A vanity mirror is a mirror designed for personal grooming, makeup, or styling, usually installed above a bathroom or dressing table.
It’s called a “vanity” mirror because it’s part of the vanity area — the space where one takes care of their appearance, often combining a mirror, lighting, and countertop.

💫 Why It’s Called a “Vanity” Mirror

The word vanity originally referred to a dressing table or personal care area, not pride as it’s sometimes misunderstood.
Over time, the term came to describe the mirror used in that space — the vanity mirror — which helps with daily routines like shaving, makeup, and hairstyling.
