Does your work-from-home space have terrible lighting? You probably had no idea until you started calling into Zoom meetings and noticed your face obscured by shadows. If tinkering with your lamps and blinds still does nothing to help, what you need is a ring light.

Never heard it of it? It's just what it sounds like — a circular lighting tool that casts a flattering glow over your face, smooths your skin (adios, crow’s feet!) and just makes you a lot more camera-ready than your desk lamp could ever do. (Plus, they’re great for hiding the fact that you didn’t put on makeup or do your hair.) While portrait photographers, vloggers and beauty influencers have known the wonders of ring lights forever, they’re pretty new to the rest of us.

Luckily, Amazon has a sale on some of the best models to illuminate your face and have you looking like a pro. Save up to 40 percent on top-rated styles — but hurry, these deals only lasts until midnight.

Just a heads-up: You can have your hands on a new ring light in two days with Amazon Prime. Not a member? Sign up here for all the entertainment and shopping benefits Amazon offers. Member now? Get one of these lights a jiffy, so you look your best ASAP.
