actually, it's got some bells and whistles I don't need/don't want to pay for. But the main body of it, the bright lights, and the rechargeable capabilities are definitely very appealing to me. Wish they sold a more stripped down version of this for a lower price tag.
I just bought this mirror. The light and connectivity with the phone is great, but I find it way too low. I have to perch it on a box that is roughly 3" high to get it to the right height, so I'm not hunched over while using it. Anyone else have this problem?
This looks very intriguing! I had the Simple Human mirror but it died on me (day 91) and have now learned that many people have had the same issues so I dont plan to replace (not at $300!) so this might be an alternative. Thanks for sharing!
This is definitely not quite as substantial a mirror as the Simplehuman ones, but I just love it. I like how light it is b/c I can easily pick it up and bring it super duper close to my face. And I like that it's flat so it doesn't take up too much room.
Thanks for all the info. As much as I loved the Simplehuman, I did not like the price tag especially if they are known to stop taking a charge so not going to replace it. The one I am using now is just from Costco and while it is nice you can't see your whole face so it is tricky when doing foundation, you have apply in sections :) This is definitely on my short list, thanks for sharing!
Yes, it works with Android (which has an 88% market share as of this writing.) As a product designer, I like the functionality but I think visually it's a fail. A large diameter piece that reads mainly like a single plane (in other words, flat with no offsets) looks flimsy with so much plastic exposed -- like a cheap palette. And the white plastic gives off a clinical vibe.
What were you using before, Michele? I've been using the Simple Human 8" vanity mirror and like it, but it's not perfect. It's a 5x magnification so I have to have another non mag mirror so I can check my whole face which is a bit of a pain.
I was using one of those cheap mirrors that actually looks similar to this. Rectangle with lights around the perimeter - but the lights were pretty pointless. And it was battery-operated. I was thinking about getting the Simple Human one, but I preferred a rectangle shape, and like you pointed out, didn't want one that is only magnified. I'm so impressed with all the features of this one. It's only been a couple days and I'd like to do a follow-up review once I've used it for a couple months, but so far I'm in love!
I just bought one from LImelife (i'm a guide.) I have never had one and was in dire need of one. Thank you for this video, didn't know how it works. However stop saying Iphone since NOT EVERYONE has one. Just say smartphone. Again thanks for the video, wish I got the case with it.
Hi, do you happen to know the kelvins on this mirror? I've been looking everywhere and all they say is it's the best possible colour temperature, without actually saying the colour temperature.
Hi! Yes, it does work with Android devices too. There is a specific instruction for Android phones stating, "On Android phones, enable the volume button to take pictures."
I do! I use it a lot when I travel - I'll throw it into my carry out. I don't really have any gripes - it's lightweight, bright, battery life is decent. It's really pretty great!
Hi Sarah - the rep at The Makeup Show told me that it was a show special only. My suggestion would be to directly email Glamcor and ask that they sell it online or if you could purchase directly from them. I think they'd sell it if they saw people were interested.
I've been thinking about this mirror... debating to wait for another online deal or not.. but it's hard to wait! Still on the fence mainly because I'm not a vlogger and just thinking of using it for regular everyday use. I did find the carrying case here: rikilovesriki.com/products/riki-carry-case-professional-organizer?ref=yotpo_93 Great that you got it as a show deal!! Good find!
I'm unsure if Glamcor or Beautylish delivers to the UK - I'm sorry, but I know Beautylish's customer service will respond to you quickly with any questions!
I think this will be my birthday present to me from me. Thank you for the review.
Nice!!! Those are the best kinds of presents!!
Hi Michele! Greetings from 2020. Do you still use this mirror?
Great question! ❤️👍
Want to know too! 🙏🏻
Having only just coming across this mirror, I’m surprised it isn’t as widely available since it seems like such a good product. Do you still use it?
Just bought it. HAD to have it in my makeup collection.
Well dang I didn't realize I needed a new makeup mirror until now.... lol!
Ha!! So darn cool - just love it!

Susan P i didnt think i needed one either ,☺ i wonder how much - will go on web site
Susan P i feel same way. I have been looking but no luck yet.
Great video! Will be getting this soon. Good to know it’s available on beautylish too.
Very useful video! Thank you for being straight to the point

yes! I just got this and I'm having the same problem
They have a vanity stand you can buy it makes it height adjustable. Comes in black and white.

Thank you for your input!!

Just got this today .. finally got a travel size mirror I can take with me !!!
Hey are you still using the skinny? Had it held up well?

Hey Michele, I just bought one of these at Nordstrom. Do you still use yours?
Oh, I am going to have to get one of these now. 😊
Which vanity do you have from IKEA?
Is the mirror only compatible with iPhone?

Hi! According to Glamcor's site it's from 2700k to 5600k - hope that helps!
So cool!!!!
Such a helpful video!!!!
Glamcor is having a 20% off sale this weekend (3/10/18).
Love this mirror! What is the price of this mirror? Does it work with Android devices or only IPhone? Thank you!!
Hi! Yes, it does work with Android devices too. There is a specific instruction for Android phones stating, "On Android phones, enable the volume button to take pictures."
Thank you! I had the same question. Great review :)
i just bought one and it's not turning on. i also left it overnight charging in case it was dead and it still wont turn on
does your mirror blink continuously through charging?
Can you still use it while charging? Just curious lol
Yes you can!!
Michelle, do you still use this mirror? If so, are there any gripes that you have after using it for so long?
I do! I use it a lot when I travel - I'll throw it into my carry out. I don't really have any gripes - it's lightweight, bright, battery life is decent. It's really pretty great!
@@TheMicheleWang Thank you, I am debating between this one and one from simplehuman. This one has more features so makes it a better value.
i did order it
Curious, how do like to you clean your mirror?
Do you have any idea if they're going to sell the case online?
Hi Sarah - the rep at The Makeup Show told me that it was a show special only. My suggestion would be to directly email Glamcor and ask that they sell it online or if you could purchase directly from them. I think they'd sell it if they saw people were interested.
Michele Wang thank you!!
There is a padded case that holds everything and also a clear tote for the Riki Skinny available on the website now.
