True mirror: compare four views of one photo

See your front-facing photo upright, horizontally mirrored, and with each half reflected across the measured midline. These are image transformations, not attractiveness scores.

Your photo stays in this browser. It is never uploaded for this comparison.

A · Your photo, straightened and cropped

B · Horizontal mirror of A

C · Left half reflected across the midline

D · Right half reflected across the midline

What a true mirror shows

A familiar mirror reverses left and right. A photo gives you the camera view. The two folded views duplicate one half of the face across its measured midline. They make asymmetry easier to notice, but they are constructed images, not a view another person sees in real life.

How to compare the four views

We straighten the detected face and use one crop and one image scale for every panel. The fold follows the face midline even when the original photo was tilted. This tool shows no score and makes no claim about attractiveness. Lighting, expression and camera perspective still affect the picture.

Why the two folded faces differ

C keeps the left half of your face and reflects it to the right. D does the reverse. The fold uses a midline derived from 30 paired landmarks; it does not assume the nose is perfectly centered. These composites exaggerate small differences and do not represent a person you could photograph.

Why photos and mirrors feel unfamiliar

You usually know the reversed mirror image of your face. A photo reverses that familiarity and freezes one instant. The camera angle and light also change what stands out. The comparison helps explain the difference; it cannot decide which view is more authentic.

Privacy and limits

Processing happens on your device. The photo and the four views are not sent to our servers. Use one clear, front-facing photo; the same quality gates as the main scan reject a face that is too small, turned, tilted, or difficult to map. A rejected image produces no comparison.

True mirror questions

What is a true mirror?

It is a way to compare the camera view of a face with a horizontally reversed view. Here both are straightened and cropped to the same face window before comparison.

Why do I look different in photos and mirrors?

A familiar mirror reverses left and right, while a camera frame is frozen and can change with light, lens position and expression. Neither view alone defines how you look to everyone else.

Do the doubled-half images measure symmetry?

No. They duplicate one half of the photo to make differences visible. The separate symmetry test compares 30 landmark pairs and returns an actual geometric reading.

Why do the doubled halves look unusual?

Duplicating a single side removes the ordinary differences between two sides of a face. Even a small difference can look pronounced when it is repeated across the midline.

Will this tool send or keep my photo?

The four views are produced in your browser. The photo and composites are not sent to FaceGrader servers. This page does not create a server result record.

Does this page give an attractiveness score?

No. The engine checks whether the photo can be aligned, but this page displays no score, ranking or beauty judgment.
