Confused Face

A yellow face with furrowed eyebrows and a slight frown, expressing uncertainty or confusion.

The Confused Face emoji reflects uncertainty, mild disappointment, or puzzlement. It’s the go-to emoji for moments of “Wait, what?” or when something just doesn’t sit right.

It’s often used to react to strange or contradictory information, miscommunications, or underwhelming situations. Depending on the context, it can express awkwardness, dissatisfaction, or emotional discomfort.

Many use it as a softer alternative to 😞 (Disappointed Face), especially when trying to show confusion without sounding too negative or emotional. In chat, it might accompany a text like “...really?” or “I don’t get it.”
