Selfie perspective
Ask another person to take the photo from about 1.5 meters away so the face is not distorted.

Do not use face correction, smoothing, or filters. Use validation for checks rather than changing your facial features.
Shadows behind head
Stand away from the wall and face natural window light for a softer, more even result.
