Gentlemen: Where do you shave in the mornings in/out of the pod?
Ladies: Where do you apply make-up?
What works for good, practical lighting?

I always shave in the shower, I do not use a mirror but I have been doing it that way for decades. My wife uses a portable makeup mirror that she places on the dinette

Best to grow a full beard. 😎
I'm going to mount a full length mirror, maybe on the bath door, as one of my next projects.

Campground bathroom unless I'm dry camping then I suppose I would use a bowl of water outside.

Command Fog Resistant Mirror. Be sure to prep the place you want to mount it by cleaning the wall with an alcohol prep pad or 90% rubbing alcohol so the tape will stick and not fall off. I mounted this above the faucet for the shower. However, much of the time, I use a battery-operated shaver or use the campground's bathroom if I want to use a blade.

I added a little sink in the head of our 172.  Made it from an 8" steel funnel, a piece of acrylic plastic into which the funnel is mounted, and a little plastic hose and a couple of ells to drain it onto the floor.  Then I put a bamboo shower mat from Cost Plus on the floor so you don't get your feet wet.  I installed a new shower head with a flexible metal wrapped hose and put a second shower head holder in so it aims the shower head into the sink.  I's a perfect place to wet shave for those who don't want to go to seed.  It also comes in handy for washing hands instead of using the food prep area.

The only thing to add would be a little mirror.  

If anyone wants a picture, p.m. me and I'll send one.  I still can't figure out how to post pictures here. 😧
