Downcast Face With Sweat

A yellow face with a sad expression and a single drop of sweat on the forehead.

The Downcast Face with Sweat emoji represents disappointment, embarrassment, or weary acceptance. It shows a sad or stressed face with a sweat drop—often used when you’ve been through something draining or awkward.

Common uses include:

• Reacting to minor failures or slip-ups
• Conveying social embarrassment or cringe
• Expressing tiredness or defeat after a long day
• Responding to situations that didn’t go as planned

😓 walks the line between exhaustion and emotional discomfort. It’s great for describing the “oof” moments—like when things could be worse, but still sting a little.
