Taking selfies is an art. Just look at the lighting and composition of Kylie Jenner’s Instagram photos! You don’t need to pose in a perfectly sun-bathed room, though, to snap the perfect self-portrait of yourself — that’s where a ring light comes in.

There seems to be a never-ending option of ring lights for your DIY photo shoots and TikTok videos. You can get ring lights with stands, or ones designed to attach onto other objects (like a laptop). There are also specs to consider: would you rather plug your ring light into a wall outlet or a USB source? Or perhaps you’re debating between a small and big ring light (remember, wider lights will create a softer light, which could be more ideal for taking a whole-body selfie for fashion posts).
HollywoodLife has pulled together a ring light shopping guide to level up your selfie game, offering a diverse range in ring light size, power sources, and more. Just pick one or two lights that best suit your needs!
1. 10” Ring Light with 50” Extendable Tripod Stand
Here’s a no-nonsense, straightforward ring light! Not all of us are tech wizards, and this ring light from Amazon doesn’t require too much instruction manual reading to figure out. It offers the standard setup — tripod with a phone holder at the center of the 10-inch ring light — and is especially convenient with a wireless, Bluetooth-enabled remote shutter and an AC/DC adapter that plugs into an electrical outlet. You also get to play with a lot of light options! There are three color modes — “cool white,” “warm yellow” and “daylight” — as well as 10 brightness levels. Given its smaller size, this is best used as a selfie ring light (or a ring light for your lip-syncing TikToks). $37, amazon.com

2. 10″ Ring Light with Stand, Fauna 10 Colors RGB LED Ring Light
Here’s another ring light from Amazon that packs a lot of features into an affordable price point! You can have a rainbow party with this one, since this USB powered ring light offers seven RGB colors that can create hues from indigo to violet to green. This ring light also offers three normal colors (white, yellow light, and warm yellow light), and 10 levels of brightness. This is an exceptional value since the ring light comes with not one but two stands — a bigger one that can be set up between 17-44 inches in height, and a mini stand ideal for tables. Here’s the cherry on top: the ring light comes with a remote shutter! $40, amazon.com

8. Sunpak – LED 448 19″ Bi-Color Ring Light – Black
This is the granddaddy of ring lights with stands! It’s a bit more of an investment compared to some of the other ring lights on the market, but for a good reason. First of all, it’s 19 inches, which is pretty huge compared to the average ring light. This stand is also perfect for taller people since it extends up to 70 inches (which is about 5 feet and 8 inches). It goes above and beyond the basic features of having a stand and phone holder by offering 224 white and 224 amber LEDs, giving you that soft-lit glow that’s oh so desirable for photos. This ring light is also a favorite among Best Buy customers, with a 4.5 star average (based on 285 reviews). $100, bestbuy.com
