    You’re used to seeing your mirror image. You aren’t perfectly symmetrical, so your reflection looks slightly different than your image in a camera.

      I remember seeing a study saying the most attractive people had somewhat asymmetrical faces but there’s a sweet spot for it. Attractiveness reduces again if the face is too asymmetrical.

        Are you sure it said asymmetrical?

        I read something on the topic (though, awhile ago now) and it talked about symmetry being attractive, and even gave Denzel Washington as an example because he had a remarkably symmetrical face.

        Wud be really interesting if asymmetry is found attractive now!
