You probably don't know how to take photos well. Try different angles. Especially from above you if you're doing a selfie.

Camera from close up have a very different viewing angle than eyes from close up due to single vs dual. But far is similar. So you can try to use a selfie stick or get someone else to take your picture to be closer to how you normally look. Further you go with zoom lens tends to make it better. Although that also tends to make the camera more big and expensive.
