How do I know what I really look like?

[Deleted member 4106]

I look very different depending on the lighting, in the photos too

ask someone to draw you

Find something on YouTube that's easy to mimic with your phone, a vlog with simple lithting or something like that, and then compare the videos.
That will give you a fair 3th person perspective

look in the mirror

It's probably the same for everybody, i think i don't even look like the same person from pic to pic, like no resemblance at all aside from same hair color and eye color. It's really like i'm looking at a different person.

 

[sergeant blackpill]

look in the mirror

This is the most accurate.

 

[newperson]

for me it's easy i Have a cabinet mirror right next to bathroom mirror
And when I look at my face in the bathroom mirror through the cabinet mirror
It is the exact same face as on my front camera which i thought was lens distortion
Well at least for my phone camera

Tbh a lot of people will say it’s cope but the mirror is the most accurate version of yourself imo, it’s 3D and there’s no lens distortion. Another really good one is a professional camera

Mirror. Look at people you know in the mirror. Do they look that different in the mirror? Not really, the mirror is accurate, just reversed

 

[alligatordude]

Yeah some lightings make all people look better or worse

Some people think they look a lot better and others have bdd, ideal is to be realistic with yourself and look at yourself objectively. No matter who you are, you will most likely not like your flipped image. Even look at flipped images of male models if you looked at their faces a lot, for example sean o pry looks weird to me flipped. Symmetry doesn’t matter that much imo, as long as the two sides of the face are good its fine but symmetry is a plus. There are plenty of symmetrical ugly people in the world

If mirror is accurate
Then im good looking

Mirror's are usually around lights that give an even smooth lighting that makes every one look better.

But if you have a movable mirror you can see what you look like in different lightings.
