Many people bought ring lights early on in the pandemic when they started working from home, but I didn’t (and was already working from home). I wasn’t doing many video calls back then, and I certainly wasn’t planning on launching a TikTok career. (OK, I do post videos of my cats.)

Lately, though, I’ve been bothered a bit by how I look on Zoom. I’m not talking about my face — it’s just with the gray upstate New York weather, I’m often sitting in dim light, and I feel it looks a bit unprofessional. We don’t have ceiling lights in our bedrooms or offices, and shining a desk light on myself looked a bit harsh. (Yes, I know, probably very few people I’ve spoken to saw it as “unprofessional” — if any — but it still bugged me.)

I wanted to spend as little money as possible on a ring light without buying a piece of junk — I’m hoping it lasts a few years — and I didn’t want to potentially damage my laptop with a clip-on style.

The ring light I chose is very affordable and has three light options (“dramatic cool,” “dramatic warm,” and blended) and 10 brightness levels. It also has a non-slip phone holder, but I doubt I’ll use that. It’s handy, though! The long, flexible neck (arm? hmm) lets you position the light wherever you need.

I’ve only used it once so far, but it works great.

This ring light is under $20 at Amazon and available in white and black.
