My sister has always liked makeup. When we were girls she looked at lots of makeup mirrors before she found the one she wanted.

It was a really nice one, with lights all around the sides and embedded in the top. This was so that you had a natural lighting effect at any time of day. This was the best way to achieve the perfect look for an evening out.

I kind of admired her dedication – I never cared enough about makeup to look at makeup mirrors, though I didn't mind borrowing hers if I needed to do my face.
