The Eclipse Hairdresser Slides Up to Reveal a Close-Up Reflector Underneath

— February 5, 2014 — Art & Design
The Eclipse Hairdresser mirror might be a tiny piece, but it offers its user greater functionality than you'll probably appreciate at first glance. The small circular looking glass has a slender stem along one side and when you guide this upwards you'll discover a concealed convex mirror tucked in behind.

What designer Elsa Pochat offers is the ability to have a complete view of your face and your coif within the round front reflector, yet in sliding this up, you get a magnified mirror that will enable you to see the smaller details of your visage and your hairdo. What's more, this little fisheye element of the Eclipse Hairdresser is surrounded in a ring of bright LED-embedded lights. It optimizes the use of your tweezers and your makeup.
