Of course! Finding the right portable mirror for a makeup artist in Amman is about combining functionality with local availability. Here’s a detailed guide to help you choose and where to find it.

Key Features to Look For:

1. Lighting: This is the most critical feature. Look for LED lights with adjustable color temperature (warm, cool, daylight) to match the lighting your client will be in (e.g., natural daylight, office lighting, evening event lighting). This ensures makeup looks flawless everywhere.

2. Power Source: For true portability, a rechargeable battery (via USB) is essential. You don’t want to be tethered to a wall outlet at a client’s home or on a shoot.

3. Magnification: A two-sided mirror is standard: one side normal (1x) and one side magnified (usually 5x, 7x, or 10x). 5x or 7x is ideal for detailed work like eyeliner and eyebrows.

4. Size & Portability: It should be large enough to see your entire face clearly but lightweight and foldable for easy transport in your kit. A protective case is a major plus.

5. Build Quality: Look for a sturdy frame and well-built hinges. It will be opened and closed frequently and transported often.

Where to Buy in Amman:

You have several excellent options, from high-end professional stores to online marketplaces.

1. Professional Makeup & Beauty Supply Stores (Best for Quality)

These stores cater specifically to professionals and will have the highest-quality options. Staff can often provide expert advice.

• MAC Cosmetics: Located in Mecca Mall, Abdoun Mall, and Taj Mall. They sell their own branded professional mirrors, which are excellent quality but at a premium price.

• Sephora: In City Mall, Abdoun Mall, and Taj Mall. They carry a variety of lighted mirrors from brands like Simplehuman and their own collection. Good for mid-to-high-range options.

• Makeup Stores in City Mall: The beauty floor in City Mall is a hub. Check out stores like:

  • The Makeup Shop: A popular local chain for professionals and enthusiasts. They often carry tools and accessories.

  • Riva Beauty: Another major retailer that may carry accessories like mirrors.

• Specialized Professional Stores: Look for stores that supply salons. They are often located in commercial areas like Shmeisani or 7th Circle. Search for “Beauty Supplies” or “Salon Equipment” on Google Maps.

2. Online Marketplaces (Best for Variety & Convenience)

This is a fantastic way to access a huge range of brands, read reviews, and compare prices. Delivery is usually quick within Amman.

• OpenSooq (opensooq.com): Search for “LED Makeup Mirror” or “مراية ميكب LED”. You can find both new and lightly used options from sellers across Jordan. Always arrange to meet in a safe public place.

• Jumia Jordan (jumia.com.jo): A major e-commerce platform. They have a dedicated beauty section with several portable LED mirrors from international brands. Check the seller ratings and product reviews.

• Local Instagram Vendors: Many small businesses in Jordan operate through Instagram. Search for hashtags like:

  • #MakeupJordan

  • #BeautySuppliesJordan

  • #منتجات_ميكب_الاردن (Makeup Products Jordan)
    These accounts often post their products, and you can DM them to order.

3. Electronics & Home Goods Stores (For Basic Options)

While not specialized for makeup, these stores can sometimes have good options.

• IKEA: They have simple, well-designed tabletop mirrors with lights (like the LILLHULT model), but they are mains-powered, not battery-operated, limiting true portability.

• Stores like Zara Home or HomeCentre: May carry decorative mirrors, but the lighting is often not professional-grade for makeup application.

Recommended Brands to Look For:

• Simplehuman: Top-tier quality with sensor mirrors and perfect-color lighting. Available at Sephora and potentially online. High price point.

• Fenty Beauty by Rihanna: Known for its high-quality, portable “Compact Mirror” with bright, accurate LED lights.

• Conair: A reliable brand that offers many double-sided, lighted options at a more affordable price point. Often found online.

• Jerdon: Another popular brand for lighted mirrors.

• Generic/Amazon Brands: Many excellent, highly-rated mirrors are sold under various names on online marketplaces. Always read the reviews carefully to assess light quality, battery life, and sturdiness.

Quick Tips for Your Search:

• Call Ahead: Before visiting a physical store, call to check if they have portable LED mirrors in stock to save time.

• Check Voltage: If ordering from international sites like Amazon, ensure the model is compatible with Jordan’s 220V outlets, or that it charges via USB.

• Budget: Set a realistic budget. Professional-grade mirrors can range from 30 JOD for a decent online find to 150+ JOD for a premium brand like Simplehuman.

By focusing on professional stores and online marketplaces in Amman, you should have no problem finding the perfect portable mirror to elevate your makeup artistry kit. Good luck
