WHY DO I LOOK SO UGLY ON ZOOM?

[Anonymous]

Perhaps I've always been really ugly but I just feel like I look horrible on Zoom! I hate seeing my face and participating in Zoom because of this. Any tips for better lighting or things to make it better?

Zoom don't lie, that's why. F- zoom!

I look ugly on Zoom, too. All you can see is sagging skin under my chin and jaws. I've tried better camera angles, but it only helps a little.

That is my fear! My mirror must have been lying because I look 100x worse on zoom.

Ok, so it's not just me....

Some faces look worse in 2D than others. You could be gorgeous and still have a bad zoom look. Play with lighting and angles using tips from YouTube.

Face a window. Overhead lighting is harsh.

I look horrible on Zoom and am distracted by seeing my own face. I much prefer audio only calls--less distractions and I can just focus on the substance (research).

Same. It’s really depressing.

DCUM is loaded with J.Lo lookalikes, until they see their own reflections.

I was horrified by how terrible I looked on Zoom!! Turns out my face is BRIGHT red, and then my eye sockets look tiny and black and you can't even see my eyeballs. WTF?

Your camera needs to be higher.
