Jugaad for Moto-E Video chat

I recently got a family member in India a really cheap but very useful smartphone, the Motorola Moto-E.

 

A problem is that this phone only has a front-facing camera. Moto-E holders have to turn the phone around for us to see them during a video chat, depriving them of a view. Of course, if both callers are using Moto-Es, video-chats get a bit more frustrating.  A simple Jugaad to fix this is to have the Moto-E holders sit in front of a dressing mirror during the video-chat. I'm sure somebody figured this out long ago but I got a small kick out of it.
