How to light bathroom vanities is one of our most frequently asked questions when customers are looking to provide the best lighting in this room. Great lighting for a vanity is achieved by a combination of both ceiling lights and wall lights. Some builders may provide a recessed light near or above a vanity, while other builders may only provide a wall light above the mirror.

For these reasons, we recommend installing both ceiling and wall lights at each vanity. By doing so, this will provide the most flattering lighting by reducing shadows on the face and enhancing skin tones for makeup application and shaving.
