Your bathroom mirror is so much more than just a place to slap on your moisturiser, pull faces while you brush your teeth, or practice your acceptance speeches for numerous awards (a Grammy and an Oscar? Oh you are all just too kind). Choosing the right mirror for your bathroom can add style, it can provide some handy storage and even make a small space feel bigger.
We have rounded up the top bathroom mirrors that we think will suit all styles and needs. So whether you are looking for a bathroom mirror cabinet, a bathroom mirror with lights or just a sleek mirror to make your space feel lighter and bigger, we have you covered.

If you are after a bathroom mirror that is going to add instant style to your bathroom, what ever the size, this Deco Glass Wall Mirror would be ideal. The bang on trend shape make it look way more expensive than it is (don't just take our word for it, the reviews are full of similar comments) and the bevelled edges reflect light around the room beautifully.
It's quite a large mirror, but that doesn't mean it won't work in a smaller bathroom, in fact it would be perfect mounted above a sink with a light either side to make the space feel larger and lighter. The mirror is meant to be really easy to put up and it comes with everything you need too, but do bear in mind you will need a drill.

This Miller Stockholm Extending Magnifying Shaving Mirror is the ultimate space saver for small bathrooms, but even if you don’t struggle with finding room in the en suite, it makes a great feature. Tucking neatly into the wall when not in use, it can be extended to 55cm for ease — no more leaning over the sink to be able to see, and, thanks to its 3x magnifying properties, no more squinting when applying makeup or putting in contacts for those of us who are short-sighted. Yes, it is expensive, but for its utility and clever design, we think it’s a keeper.
