(N/A) To see an enlarged image of your face, you should use a $Concave$ mirror.
The face must be placed between the pole $(P)$ and the principal focus $(F)$ of the mirror.
When an object is placed between the pole and the focus of a $Concave$ mirror, the image formed is virtual, erect, and magnified (enlarged).
