vanity lights

Bathroom mirror fixtures

Vanity lights are the fixtures mounted above or alongside a bathroom mirror, designed to illuminate the face for grooming tasks like shaving or applying makeup.

The term comes from vanity in its sense of a dressing table or bathroom counter with a mirror—a place for attending to one's appearance.

She replaced the dated vanity lights with modern sconces.
