Same.

Your camera needs to be higher.

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?

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

Same. It’s really depressing.

Face a window. Overhead lighting is harsh.

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.

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

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

‘Cause you ain’t got no alibi

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?
