Help me with can lighting - what looks good

11 years ago

I have to decide on lighting. The housing is installed but I am not crazy about seeing up inside the lights. I look at pictures on Houzz and it looks like many nice design have the entire light covered. I also need small lights for a make up area, what are suggstions, would the M16 work for a soffit area above make up area.

If you do choose MR16 lights, the best for lighting would be low voltage halogen (at this point in time). LED MR16 lights are available, but the high output ones are relatively costly.
