Ilios Lights, Action, Beauty!

When taking photographs, I am always looking for lighting that sets the right mood and captures my best, most flawless looks. Lately I have been experimenting with several lighting kits purchased on Amazon for my beauty and vlogging needs. As soon as I turned on the Ilios Beauty Ring Creator Bundle, a favorite of influencers, celebrities and makeup artists, I instantly saw that it was a radiant lighting solution with a focus on both functionality and visual aesthetics. Compared to the average lighting kit, it’s beautifully crafted and designed with quality hardware – it has 50 watts built into the ring!

Designed via a collaboration between the founder of Ilios, Kelly Mondora, a twenty-year film and photography lighting industry veteran and celebrity makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic, the Beauty Ring is the first-ever all-in-one makeup mirror and ring light combination. Wth five brightness settings, two mounting options, two magnification settings, Premium LED lighting up to 50 watts, and three color modes, the Ilios Beauty Ring Creator Bundle offers perfect light settings for makeup, skincare, content creation, and product photography. And a bonus for vloggers, it’s charged via USB cable.

The company’s founder Kelly Mondora further explains the cutting-edge technology that makes the Beauty Ring Creator Bundle so unique: ”The Ilios signature light diffusion is 10x brighter than competitive makeup mirrors and ring lights and is the first and 98 CRI mimicking true daylight. Combined with our 1x and 5x reversible mirrors, the color will appear the same as the naked eye.”

In addition to the best lighting for my test shots, Ilios Beauty Ring Creator Bundle is also expertly built to last and sustain the wear-and-tear of daily content creation and easily packable for a vlogger on the go.
