Why the FUCK do I feel pretty cute when I look in the mirror but I look like a permavirgin whenever I pull out my front camera
>the camera mirrors the image!!
No shut up
Mirroring the image shouldn’t make my face look bloated, my nose way bigger and my eyes smaller.
Other photos I look ok, but my phones front camera makes me look crazy ugly 90% of the time
Pic unrelated

Front-facing cameras usually have very wide angle lenses. People usually look like shit through wides, there's a reason professional portraiture is done with telephotos. What you see with your own eyes in the mirror is about equivalent to a 50mm lens, the quintessential portrait lens is 85mm, and front-facing phone cameras are usually like 28mm.

What I don't know is how the fuck anybody manages to look good through them.

The lens in the camera is not the same as lens in your eye.

This only applies when you're close up.
If you extend your arms far enough the distortion is far less.
