HOW COME I LOOK DIFFERENT IN DIFFERENT MIRRORS!?!?

Question

Answer 1

i had the same problem, i loved how i looked in one mirror and hate how i look in the next. it could be by the size, shape, lighting, or dirtiness

Answer 2

The lighting, the background, the background colors contrasted with your skin tones and what you were wearing, how close you were, and your mood.  Unless damaged, each mirror accurately reflects the light landing on it.  What you see is accurate for that environment.  What you perceive depends on your mood, your color preferences, etc.  Some people see deeper than how you look.  You communicate better with them by your smile, gestures, body language and motions, attitudes, and words than by how you look in a mirror.

Answer 3

its the lighting..not the mirror!

Answer 4

lighting conditions and the shape of the mirror contribute to how your reflection looks.

Answer 5

uhhhh hun, its a mirror all of them are the same its just the way youre looking at it  

Answer 6

That happens to me all the time. It's probably just the lighting in the room that you're in.

Dressing rooms are especially evil. The lighting in there ALWAYS makes me feel like killing myself. =]

Don't worry about it. Your best guess would be for you to somehow see yourself outside. Although I don't know where you can find a gigantic mirror outside...

Answer 7

Oh dont worry your pretty. Mirrors are tricky little devils. Some make ppl look fat, which its all the mirror. just ask someone in person.

Answer 8

It has to do with the quality of the mirror.  If you go into a shop and look into a very expensive mirror and then into one that is less expensive, you will understand.  The silver on the back, may be of a lesser quantity on the inexpensive mirror.
