conceited person

Self-absorbed individual

A conceited person has an excessively high opinion of themselves—their abilities, appearance, or importance.

The phrase emphasizes the individual rather than the quality: He's such a conceited person, always talking about his accomplishments.

Someone conceited may be called vain, arrogant, or full of themselves.
