...Senua's story is not pretty. Senua's journey through what she perceives as a land of evil, magic and ruin is not pretty. She is not an airbrushed model. She is meant to be a picture of a person. Someone battling what she believes to be true, horrifying monsters while striving in grief to achieve something to ease her pain. Screaming to deities to aid her.
Calling her that is disgusting. Retouching her face to look 'correct' is both missing the point and spitting on art.

Senua doesn't look like a model, but she's far from being ugly. I agree with your point
