Special glasses for eyemakeup application

My vision is challenged at 65yo. I do wear progressives...but, it's so darn hard putting my eyemakeup on. You should see the crazy hand positions i try to see...holding my glasses up and out w/ one hand...angling my other hand just right and closing one eye. It's nuts.

So I'm looking at some special glasses designed to help me see up close but have easier access to my eyes. BTW...i do use a great magnifying mirror...it adheres (suction cup) to my bathroom mirror and telescopes out as far as I want it to...and I can angle it any way I want to. This has served me well for a long time. But, I need something more cause even though it helps it doesn't provide sharper vision...just larger.

Been looking into online products that are designed for this challenge. There's one in particular that i'm considering...called Sylvana Belle Eyes makeup eyeglasses. It looks ly weird but is designed to extend away from face allowing ease of getting your eye makeup tools up and under the glasses. Apparently, they're the" only makeup eyeglasses in the world that provide 20/20 vision in both eyes simultaneously while applying makeup."

So...has anyone tried these? Have you been happy with them? There's some good testimonials on their website...but, you never know. Would love some feedback from you guys before I decide to order.

Here's the link so you can see what I'm talking about:
