Look worse while cutting bodyfat

[vexed]

Every time I start cutting down I hit this phase where I start looking sickly, it's not even that I'm losing tons of weight it's just a steady cut, caloric restriction with some cardio. I legit look worse when I'm doing that, so I start eating normally again.

Does this mean I'm just not suited for low bodyfat? Or is it that I don't cut properly?
I'm thinking of cutting hard and down to a very low bf% while in this quarantine bullshit, but I also don't wanna stunt my growth and not end up looking better by the end of it.

Your muscles go flat before you lose fat. When I start cutting hard it looks like I've lost 10 lbs of muscle in a week when in reality it's all glycogen.

Unless you're talking about facial aesthetics in which case idk.

whats makes you sickly looking ? is it your eyes?

Probably you have subhuman bones and when you go down in weight, your body fat pads around the face disappear and unveil your true sub-humanity.

yeah I'm talking facial aesthetics, I don't really lose that much size in terms of muscle which leads me to think that maybe I'm not cutting hard enough

whats makes you sickly looking ? is it your eyes?

It's hard to pinpoint exactly what does that, some of it is definitely my complexion (pale as fuck) and my eyes yeah, I have dark circles normally but when cutting my eyes look more hollow and also I lose some hooding
