X Ways Better Bathroom Lighting Can Improve Your Life

Bathroom Lighting

When most people think about ways they can improve their lives, they think about career changes, new relationships, or major lifestyle habit changes like eating healthier foods. All of these strategies are excellent options that everyone should consider, especially if they aren't completely satisfied with their current life. The problem is that many of these options are arduous and expensive to pursue.


Wouldn't it be nice if there were smaller, much more accessible ways that you can improve your life?

Good news: there are. And while it might seem trivial or unusual to acknowledge, the truth is, better bathroom lighting has the potential to improve your life significantly.

Let's find out how.

The Power of Better Bathroom Lighting
First, let's figure out where the power of better bathroom lighting comes from.

What does it mean to have “better” bathroom lighting? That's a bit subjective, as better bathroom lighting is any lighting that makes you feel better about your bathroom or enables you to use your bathroom in new ways.

Typically, that means at least some improvement in at least some of these categories:

  • Color. By default, most bathrooms are lit with bright, white lighting, or lighting in a warmer, yellow or tone. But what if you could illuminate your bathroom in a deep red? Or a bright blue? Or any other color you imagine, based on your mood or the type of environment you want to create? Thanks to LEDs and other advanced lighting technologies, it's easier than ever to apply custom lighting to any room in your house.
  • Luminosity. Better bathroom lighting could also mean a more appropriate luminosity. Sometimes, you want the power of the sun in your face, so you can see everything with perfect vision. Other times, you want a dim, barely visible light to guide you without disrupting your night vision. Even better, you should have access to a wide range of luminosities at any given point.
  • Positioning. The positioning of your lighting also matters. You'll want both direct and indirect lighting, depending on what types of tasks you're carrying out and when and where you're carrying them out. Positioning also plays a massive role in the general aesthetics of your lighting.
  • Options. For most homeowners, there's no such thing as a single perfect lighting setup, because your lighting needs and wants may change from day-to-day, or even from moment to moment. Perhaps what's most important is that you give yourself options in the future.
  • Convenience/accessibility. Advanced lighting fixtures sometimes become cumbersome or complicated to install, so the best solutions are often more simplistic, minimalistic ones. You probably don't want lighting that introduces more complication than flipping switches or pressing buttons.

We should also mention that upgrading your bathroom lighting can be extremely inexpensive. Knocking down walls and rewiring the entire bathroom might be an expensive project, but it's certainly not necessary to install new lighting. Standalone fixtures, LED strips, and new bulbs are just some of the inexpensive options that are available to you.

How Better Bathroom Lighting Can Improve Your Life
So how exactly can better bathroom lighting improve your life?

  • A clearer view. A mirror is enough to help you see yourself – but you’ll be missing out on a lot of details unless you have sufficiently luminous, well-positioned lights in place. With a clearer view, you'll be able to see yourself perfectly, so you can apply makeup, shave your facial hair, and generally look your best.
  • The right mood. Sometimes, you want to start the day with a bright, energetic vibe. Other times, you want to start with warm, cozier vibes. Customizing your lighting allows you to start the day in the right mood, the right way, every time.
  • Novelty and spontaneity. Certain lighting options introduce you to more possibilities for novelty and spontaneity. If you're interested in striking a different mood or just doing things differently, you can adjust the color and luminosity of your lights.
  • Overall aesthetics. Better lighting will help you fall in love with your bathroom all over again, improving how you feel about your entire house in the process.
  • Confidence and self-esteem. Taking more pride in your home surroundings can also help you develop more confidence and self-esteem. You'll feel more in tune with your house – and you might find yourself more interested in hosting social gatherings as well.

Getting Started
Bathroom lighting isn't going to make a depressed person happy or a miserable person content, but it does have the power to improve your life in a small, yet meaningful way. If you're interested in getting started, take inventory of your current lighting setup, get inspiration from various bathroom lighting options online, and start to piece together your perfect lighting environment.
