Why Lighted Beats Vanity Lights
Vanity lights cast shadows on the face. Mirror-mounted LED lighting is shadow-free and flatters skin tones.
Recess vs Surface Mount
Recess mount: cleaner look, requires cutting into wall studs. Surface mount: easier install but the cabinet sticks out 4".
Installation
Lighted medicine cabinet install: $179-$299. Requires electrical hookup. Surface mount is easier; recess requires drywall work.
