One of the mistakes consumers make in the bath is not installing adequate lighting around their wall mirror and vanity areas. Not only will good lighting make your bath space more pleasent and comfortable looking, it's also essential for applying make-up and grooming - more light means fewer unflattering shadows on the face when shaving or applying make-up. With larger mirrors or wall spaces, look to use three light bathroom light fixtures or larger to light the area from above. Halogen bath lights, which are brighter and put out more light, are also worth considering. When using a single wall sconce on either side of a mirror, the recommended hang height is somewhere around 60" off the floor and 30" apart. Light bars need to be mounted somewhat higher above the floor, around 70-75" high. One light bathroom fixtures are best used for area or mood lighting as it is difficult to get enought light from a single bulb to be satisfying.
