How to know when a mirror/camera is showing my true appearance?

Okay so I have this issue where certain cameras/mirrors make me look bigger or smaller.photobooth and my iphone always make me long thinner than say for example certain mirrors and i guess i'm just confused! Do you seem to find that your phone or photobooth give you a correct mirror of your appearance?

Sometimes a long mirror can have a little tiny bend in it that will distort thigns a little. The best way to get a good reflection is to get a full sized mirror and make sure that it's attached to a door or wall and not just leaning on it. If you've got a mirror that's leaning on a wall then it's going to bow a little in the middle and that will distort the image. As for using the camera on your phone, it all depends on the angle that you're holdign the phone at. If you hold it tilted downwards a little then you'll look smaller and if you tilt it upwards then you'll look bigger.

  • Why do I look ugly in my camera, but not in the mirror? Whenever I look into my iPhone camera I look extremely pale, my zits look extremely red, and my eyes just appear "brown" but when I look into the mirror I look a little tan, and my zits look very small and not that big of a deal, and my eyes appear more greenish and hazel. And no there's no lighting of the room when I'm looking into the mirror it's just natural light. Is it just the camera that makes me look ugly? Or is my mirror wrong and my Cameras right? :/
