Why do I look weird in selfie camera vs mirror

Why does the selfie camera make me look weird when compared to in the mirror?

you look good sweetie(no homo). Do you take any supplements for that nice skin colour or are you born that way

edit: it's distortion

If your front camera doesn't mirror the image, then it is mostly you seeing your face unmirrored (the way others see it) when you take a selfie. It is also lens distortion which is greater with the smaller selfie lens and at a closer distance.

If you look at his cheekbone projection and leanness, it does not look like he is sucking in his cheeks. The hollowness are a result of those two factors.

I take a fuck load of supps but I think eating clean and unprocessed foods is the best thing to do, I still breakout a bit, I take Ashwganda, fenugreek, vit D3, Mens multi vitiman, Vit C, Collagen, Zinc, Magnesium, creatine, ZMA, calcium absorbate powder, fish oil and silver spray

Focal length distortion, the best photos are taken from far with a zoom lens.
Selfie cams are basically the opposite, and mirror photos are kind of a hack to take a picture from a bit farther (the distance is essentially doubled)
