Our Top Picks

Shape: Round | Dimensions: 10 x 10 x 4 inches | Mounting Type: Magnetic | Special Features: LED light, Bluetooth speaker, adjustable magnetic mount

Manzo likes this design-forward shower mirror from Sharper Image, and we can see why. It boasts heated anti-fog technology that defogs in under a minute, plus an LED ring light with three brightness levels. The high-quality mirror is made of real glass and promises a distortion-free reflection, while a special safety film prevents it from breaking.

There's also a built-in rechargeable Bluetooth speaker, so you can jam out while lathering up. Though some assembly is required, the magnetic mounting system makes it super easy to install on any surface. Although this option is a bit pricier than most, we think its high-tech features and durable construction justify the spend.

Shape: Square or rectangle | Dimensions: 11.75 x 11.75 inches, 11.75 x 23.75 inches | Mounting Type: Wall mount | Special Features: Defogger

Manzo is also a fan of the Aqua. Available in two sizes, this frameless in-shower mirror has a built-in defogger that works without filling it with hot water. The glass is also shatter-resistant. Though it's on the pricier side and calls for professional hardwiring, this sleek, modern fixture is made to last and backed by a seven-year warranty.

Shape: Rectangle | Dimensions: 3 x 7.2 x 13.2 inches | Mounting Type: Suction cups | Special Features: Razor hook

If you want something that mounts with suction cups, Manzo suggests the OXO Stronghold. This easy-to-install shower mirror defogs when you fill the back reservoir with hot water. The simple rounded rectangle design is also shatterproof and has a handy built-in razor hook to make getting a quality shave in the shower that much easier.

Shape: Rectangle | Dimensions: 8 x 7 x 2 inches | Mounting Type: Wall mount | Special Features: Razor shelf, squeegee

This rectangular mirror tilts up and down and rotates 360 degrees, allowing you to see what you're doing from any angle (which can be handy for shaving your pubic area in the shower). It stays fog-free when you keep it filled with hot water, and when you're done showering, you can rotate it upside down to dump it out. It also comes with a squeegee for wiping down the mirror and your shower walls, and there's an attached shelf where you can store it and your razor.

Shape: Rectangle | Dimensions: 10 x 6 x 1 inches | Mounting Type: Suction cups | Special Features: Squeegee, razor hooks

We also like the Z'Fogless Mirror, which promises a fog-free reflection, even in the steamiest of showers. It comes with a squeegee you can use to wipe off excess water droplets and keep your glass and tile spot-free. The squeegee attaches to the side, and there are two hooks at the bottom where you can hang a razor, toothbrush, or any other tools you'd like to have on hand.

Shape: Oblong | Dimensions: 16 x 9 x 5 inches | Mounting Type: Suction cups | Special Features: Loofah/razor hooks

The Joseph Joseph EasyStore Caddy is essentially a shower shelf with a removable mirror. It attaches to non-textured tile and other smooth surfaces with extra-strong suction cups and boasts an impressive 7-pound weight limit. The shelf has multiple hooks for loofahs and razors, plus small holes in the bottom to prevent soap scum buildup. Though the mirror isn't fogless, it's shatter-resistant.

Shape: Rectangle | Dimensions: 7 x 6 inches | Mounting Type: Silicone grip

This pared-down rectangular mirror from Tooletries is not only affordable but also shatterproof and waterproof. The Oliver sticks to any smooth surface with the brand's patented silicone-grip technology—no suction cups or adhesive needed. Just peel off the backing, press it down on the desired surface, and you're good to go. Once installed, it's virtually flush against the wall, and you can remove it just as easily.

Shape: Round | Dimensions: 18 x 8 x 1 inches | Mounting Type: Showerhead arm | Special Features: Razor hook

This innovative shower mirror from Sharper Image doesn't need to be manually filled with water to activate the anti-fog technology. Instead, it connects to your showerhead through a stainless steel arm, which doubles as a pipe to draw in hot water as needed. We also like that the arm is flexible and extendable, allowing you to get the perfect angle and height.

Shape: Round | Dimensions: 8.31 x 8.31 inches | Mounting Type: Adhesive | Special Features: Rechargeable battery, 3-color dimmable light

Available in two magnifications (1X or 2X), this waterproof shaving mirror runs on a built-in rechargeable battery. Unlike other fog-free designs, this allows it to heat up and defog without the need to continuously fill it with hot water. The 8-inch circular design rotates a full 360 degrees, and there's a 3-color dimmable light with memory recognition, so you can easily adjust the brightness to white, natural, or warm.

Shape: Round | Dimensions: 8 inches | Mounting Type: Wall mount | Special Features: Sensor-activated LED

If your bathroom layout allows it, you might consider a wall-mounted model, like the Simplehuman Sensor Mirror. Since it's technically a makeup mirror, built-in LED lights turn on when motion is detected, offering bright sunlight-mimicking illumination—the ideal type of lighting for applying makeup in the bathroom. It's available in five finishes to match your existing fixtures and comes in your choice of a rechargeable or hardwired design—extra points for the five-year warranty. Although this is a more expensive option, we think the high-tech features like LED lights and motion detection justify the cost.

Shape: Rounded rectangle | Dimensions: 6 x 4 inches | Mounting Type: Suction cups

Want something you can bring on the go? We like this little mirror from The Shave Well Company. Measuring just 6 x 4 inches, it's notably compact and comes with a removable suction cup you can attach to virtually any flat surface. To make it even more travel-friendly, it's also shatterproof and features anti-fog technology that activates when you hold it under a warm water stream.

Shape: Oval | Dimensions: 7.2 x 7.2 inches | Mounting Type: Suction cups | Special Features: Razor hook

If you want a great mirror that won't fog up, is easy to install, and won't break the bank, the HoneyBull Shower Mirror is it. The suction cups are strong, so you don't have to worry about it budging, and it easily and securely attaches anywhere in your shower. We also like that it has a built-in hook to store your razor.

Shape: Round | Dimensions: 14 x 5.8 inches | Mounting Type: Adhesive | Special Features: Water valve

We love the unique design of this fog-free mirror. It includes a flexible arm, so you can rotate it for a better angle, and a valve to adjust the water flowing near the mirror, which can affect the level of fog. Because it's made of acrylic and plastic, it's also shatter-proof. The simple design and fairly compact size is a fit for minimalist spaces. As a bonus, this mirror is incredibly lightweight.

Shape: Round | Dimensions: 7 x 0.5 inches | Mounting Type: Magnetic charging mount | Special Features: LED lights, 5 brightness levels, rechargeable battery

If lighting is the most important aspect of a shower mirror to you, meet Glamcor’s shaving mirror with a built-in ring of LED lights and five brightness levels. This do-it-all gadget easily attaches to any kind of tile with a magnetic mount and included tape, plus it heats up and defogs in super-steamy settings. It’s also available in a 1X or 7X magnification, so you can rest assured you’ll be able to see everything as closely as you need.

Shape: Round | Dimensions: 0.88 x 2.8 inches | Mounting Type: Attaches to cans and squeeze bottles | Special Features: Grippy finish, anti-fog, shatter-proof

For the true multitasker who doesn’t want to bother with a wall mount, The Original Keister’s genius little mirror attaches to most shaving cans and squeeze bottles in two sizes. And it’s shatter, scratch, and slip-proof, thanks to a silicone-based design and recessed mirror. Even though it promises to be anti-fog, you can always run it under warm water for a few seconds if you run into a foggy situation.

FAQ

• Where should a mirror be placed in the shower?

  A shower mirror can be placed anywhere in the shower, but it's best to place it on the glass door, tiles, or at the far end of the shower (especially if it has slots that can easily fill with water).

• How do you secure a mirror in your shower?

  Most shower mirrors come with the hardware to safely secure them into the shower. Some come with suction cups, while others come with hooks or a piece that secures safely onto your showerhead. Many also have magnetic or adhesive backing that secures the mirror in place.

• How does a fogless shower mirror work?

  There are a couple of ways to prevent fog on shower mirrors. One is through a heating element—typically hot water—that prevents condensation from forming. Some brands also place a film over the mirror to prevent fog. Both methods help keep the mirror looking clean and streak-free.
