Lying Face

A yellow face with a long nose, reminiscent of Pinocchio, with eyes open and a small frown.

The Lying Face emoji represents lies, deceit, or someone being dishonest—either playfully or seriously. With its extended nose (a visual cue from Pinocchio), this emoji can call out fibs, exaggerations, or "little white lies."

It’s often used in a humorous or ironic tone, especially when teasing someone about a suspicious claim or story. However, it can also express distrust or skepticism when responding to a bold or dubious statement. Context determines whether it’s playful banter or a call-out.

In some circles, it can also signal sarcastic self-awareness, like admitting to a harmless lie or awkward excuse.
