I absolutely love this light up mirror!  I recently got a new desk so this goes on it perfectly.  I can do my makeup,  tweeze my eyebrows and see my pores up close!  The magnifying side makes it so easy to examine my skin up close.  The led lights have 3 different levels from low to high.  The oval shape is better than round ones I used in the past.  The mirror requires 2 AA batteries.  No electric cords to deal with.  I totally recommend this mirror.
