Difference between Front Facing and Rear Camera

Hi, I noticed that the pictures i take of myself (with the Front Facing Camera?) are completely different from the ones people take of me(Rear Camera). It's like i'm two different looking people, which made me think how do i really look.😕

I thought that maybe the Front Facing picutres is how i look to myself/Mirror and the Rear camera pictures is how people actually see me but then it didn't make sense to me because how is it possible that the person i see in the mirror is not what i actually look like to everyone.

hope you understood as english is not my first language.

It's not that, what i mean is that when someone take a picture of me with my phone then it will look very different from a photo i'll take of myself( flipping the camera to Mirror/Front Facing), now obviously there will differences as the angles are different, but in my case the person on the rear camera photos is completely different then the one in the mirror photos.

Is the actual picture, after you take it and look in the Camera Roll, different? Or is it only different while you are looking at yourself in the screen before you take the picture?

Hold up something with obvious right/left tributes like a newspaper headline, and compare pics.
