Using this Jay Strongwater Angela compact mirror is easy. Just open the compact to access the mirrors. The magnified mirror is great for tasks like applying eyeliner or tweezing eyebrows, while the regular mirror gives you a broader view for overall makeup checks. When not in use, keep it in a safe place away from sharp objects to prevent scratches on the enamel and crystals. To clean it, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the hand - enameling and the Swarovski crystals. Enjoy this beautiful compact for all your makeup needs!
