Mirror Structure
Bathroom mirrors generally come in three types – with shelves, with or without a medicine cabinet. Many people go for a medicine cabinet as this gives you the option to store away things you typically use in a bathroom like toothbrushes and toothpaste.
Mirror Size
Unlike regular mirrors, the size of a bathroom mirror needs to suit the size of the sink vanity. For instance, using a bathroom mirror that is too big will make the space look clunky and on the other side, choosing a mirror that is too small will have you leaning against the vanity to see yourself.

Can You Use A Regular Mirror as A Bathroom Mirror?
The short answer is no – notably if you live in a humid or wet climate, using a regular mirror as a bathroom mirror is not recommended. The number one reason for this is because the bathroom is a place that experiences high moisture and steam, and a regular mirror cannot cope in this humidity. Over time, a regular mirror installed in the bathroom will deteriorate around the frame from moisture damage especially if it has wood or metal framing.
What Are the Different Types of Bathroom Mirrors?
Wall Bathroom Mirror
With a traditional wall bathroom mirror, there are options to consider with the shape and size. Rectangular and round vanity mirrors are some of the more popular shapes of bathroom mirrors and additionally, if you have two sink vanities, you can opt for double mirrors.
The wide variety of wall bathroom mirrors makes them a perfect option for all different budgets.

Illuminated Bathroom Mirror
Illuminated bathroom mirrors are a great option when there are limited light sources available, where LED lights are built into the mirror helping to light up the bathroom.
Many of these illuminated mirrors also include useful auto-demisting technology, where the mirror surface eliminates the steam from your shower solving the need to wipe down the fog.
