Solution

The correct option is A Concave mirror
Concave mirror is used as shaving mirror. This is because it produces a virtual, erect and magnified image of our face when held in front of the face at a distance less than its focal length thus, allowing us to observe our face closely.

Hence, the correct answer is OPTION A.
