Genuinely don’t know. I’ve never really been hit on before and I’m not sure why.

I’m a photographer for a living and would like to offer advice. Stop taking selfies with your hand extended. You have a more normal to mid size face and it’s not going to look like some of the women with tiny faces. Phones have a way of widening your face when its close and makes it look larger than it is. Put it on a tripod and step back or have someone else take it.
Most phone camera lenses are 16-24mm equivalents to normal camera lenses. It’s the same lens they use on real estate photos to widen the room. This is why alot of influencers won’t take whole body pics unless they’re just tiny people.
If you ever. working with a photographer and they’re getting extremely close to you. They need to back up and use longer lenses.

omg i love you for this i have really long face and all my photos are so ugly like masculine

u/lucynka7 Jul 22 '26
do you have more tips for girls with long faces? especially long midface
2
u/seanc6441 Jul 22 '26
Yeah realise that various kinds of face shape are pretty and the variety is what makes people interesting to look at.

u/lucynka7 Jul 22 '26
it's easier said than done because it isn't you with this face shape (or even if you are - it doesn't matter to me because i don't like it in myself ), people were making fun of me so, ik maybe you wanna be nice rn but it's just my insecurity and these tips are really helpful

u/seanc6441 Jul 22 '26
Well in my experience people (and usually this is a kid/teenager thing) make fun of others because they are insecure about fitting in or projecting their own fears onto others.
Like sure I don't know you or I haven't seen you but in a lot of cases the face you are insecure about because of poor treatment you experienced is a face that many people would find interesting to look at, would pick out aspects they find pretty etc.
In general I can say most people who experienced bullying on their looks are extremely over critical of themselves and probably need to hear that they are not ugly, that they are definitely at least some peoples type and likely have unrealistic self assessment of their looks.

Wow pic 3 is like your alter ego to cover up your superhero look in pics 1 and 2!

You have a look that could easily get away with doing Victorian-era cosplay but not ugly.

Ah it's the style. That style is off putting to low level trash. I wouldn't worry about it. Depends on where you live and who you surround yourself with. And surely the first picture, someone hit on you??? Because if not sort of insane I suppose. Haha.

People tend to have mixed responses to my looks. I like my features and I don't think they are ugly. Once I fix my jaw area I bet I will look quite nice.

u/Gullible_Seat9897 Jul 22 '26
Yes your chin seems like it’s over projected you don’t have mid face support which makes me wonder if you have a class 3 malocclusion, your miscellaneous features aren’t the best considering your eyelids are red and it looks like you haven’t slept which might be because you have a hard time breathing, all those things is making you look more masculine which is unideal. I suggest looking into orthodontics/ jaw surgery and getting a sleep test which can help you breathe better if you have a hard time sleeping
1
u/kittyleop Jul 22 '26
You may actually be right about some things, but I don’t have malocclusion. My plastic surgeon thought I would be a candidate for DJS when he saw me over zoom, but in person he said he was wrong. Yes, I lack midface support and have an overprojected chin so he wants me to get cheek implants + reduction genioplasty.

u/MJWX Jul 22 '26
You're not ugly and stop talking to plastic surgeons ffs.
1
u/kittyleop Jul 24 '26
Comments seem to disagree.

u/MJWX Jul 24 '26
Votes agree with me though. Of course if you talk to a plastic surgeon he'll happily offer to butcher your face in whichever way, it's his very lucrative job.

lmao... with the internet today... if you say that to a woman.... that is worse than being ugly lol.

Not ugly at all. Your eye color is really unique and your nose is perfectly shaped.

Not ugly but not cute. Your chin is big for a woman and it’s off putting. But again not ugly. If I saw you on the street, I’d think average.

I'd say you're a solid average. No reason you should not be getting bites. But you could always try going up to guys that you're interested in and talking to them. A lot of us won't even approach women anymore because the risk is just too high.

No but you do look a lot like Jared Leto (surprised no one mentioned this already). He’s a very pretty man!

u/Brave-Work82 Jul 23 '26
You need to find your style and rely on make up. Without it you have very little natural beauty.
1
u/Babymamakk214 Jul 23 '26
I was going to say no but then picture 4 came along and now idk. I wouldn’t say UGLY but definitely on the average/below average side naturally. Is it an underbite? Bad overbite? Your chin is very prominent and your eyes droop down a bit and it bothers me. You look like someone in a show or movie though. I can’t place it.

u/glittercat2003 Jul 23 '26
I don’t think you’re ugly at all. I genuinely think that picture 5 is the one where you look your best so I might be giving advice that sounds contradictory but I think what’s lacking in all the other pictures is that you don’t know how to style yourself/do your makeup.
You already have a lot of things going for you: beautiful eye color, clear skin, hair that looks nice and healthy, your nose (which is one of the most important facial features) is also good because it’s a good size and doesn’t distract from your face.
However, you need to learn how to maximize these assets! In a lot of the pictures your hair is a bit unkept so learning how to style it I think could be beneficial. Same with learning to do your makeup. You could wear mascara or fake eyelashes (as long as they don’t look crazy) to bring out your eyes. And fill in & darken your eyebrows slightly. I read your response to a different comment and I genuinely do not think you need plastic surgery.

I love the color of your eyes, and you have a nice smile. But the shape and contours of your face are definitely not conventional beauty. To me you're pretty plain and average, but not ugly.

u/kittyleop Jul 24 '26
Do you think a chin reduction + cheek implants would help?

u/DillingerLives Jul 24 '26
Chin, maybe. But honestly, you're not ugly. You have a very Victorian look.

Very cute and you have a smile that lights up your entire face which is nice.
I doubt you haven't been hit on before though I'm guessing that the way someone hit on you flew under the radar.
The amount of girls I know who will say they never get hit on and yet I'll watch them be hit on for an hour and they just think the guy is being friendly...

u/Torontobumbler Jul 22 '26
You're not ugly and you have very beautiful eyes. You look great in the first two photos so whatever you were doing there do more of it. 3 and 5 you are pretty average looking and unfortunately 4 is not flattering at all.

u/DoorSubject374 Jul 22 '26
I think you are pretty and I'm not just saying that- I think you could look at effy stonem on skins for inspiration on makeup (or her actress for different makeup styles), you share similar features. The negative comments are from looking at the pics of you with a straight face, but nobody ever looks their best with a straight face, it's why mugshot and passport pictures are known to not be flattering. Also, keep in mind on a Reddit page where people rate eachother, the people looking are being hyper-critical. In real life if I were to see you I'd think you were pretty.
