no. the mirror actually shows a slightly younger version of yourself. it has to do with the time it takes the light to travel between the mirror and you

I guess it's a true depiction of your looks. However, it depends on your mood at the time - I'm pretty sure everyone has those days when they feel good, their hair has gone to plan and they look in the mirror and think, "ok, I'm not perfect but I look alright today!"
There are also days when everything from your make-up to your hair has gone wrong and you see exactly the same reflection as before, but all you can think is "oh christ, look at that mess".
The mirror always shows the truth, but it depends on your interpretation of what you see, depending on how you feel. The same could be said for others - if someone dislikes you or is deliberately looking for flaws, they're more likely to see you in unflattering ways.

No, because it only shows you as a 2 dimensional image.

relies upon your lens on the digicam. in case you do not have the main appropriate lens, your face would be warped tremendously much previous acceptance. in case you have the main appropriate lens, this is going to coach you as pleasing or as grotesque as you extremely are.
