The thing with bathroom lighting is that halogen lights usually just throw
light onto the floor. But for shaving and make-up, *sideways* lighting is
required, particularly for shaving which really needs upwards lighting to
illuminate the chin. With halogens you will have comparatively little
reflection from walls to provide this.

Yep, which is why we have wall lighting as well by the mirror at face
height for this purpose as well.

I would have this anyway as a single central light (say) would leave the
face in shadow
