This is indeed perspective distortion from wide angle lenses (like your selfie cam):

The influencer-type “holding up a phone in the mirror” shot is actually technically sound, because it uses the phone’s longer-focal-length camera.

And typically this is the camera with the biggest sensor.

(I realize this is just a meme, but I can’t help spreading photography bits like I’m crazy).

I’m confused. U pretty?

It made your eye color change?
