A funny face

We tend to think that both halves of our face look exactly the same, but they don’t. You can demonstrate this using two mirrors.

Get started

Step 1

Stand in front of the mirror. Look at your reflection.

Step 2

Hold the hand mirror so that it covers half of your forehead, nose and chin. What do you notice?

What did you discover?

A face may look symmetrical, but for most people, the left half of their face is slightly different from the right.
