🤮️ Face vomiting emoji

What is 🤮️ called?

🤮️ is called the Face vomiting emoji.

What does 🤮️ mean?

The face vomiting emoji represents throwing up, severe nausea, food poisoning, or extreme disgust. It is more explicit and intense than simply feeling unwell.

🤢 Nauseated face shows queasiness without vomiting, while 😷 Face with medical mask covers illness and protection more generally. Use 🤮 for literal sickness or a deliberately exaggerated “that is revolting” reaction.

Example Usage

I have been sick all night with food poisoning 🤮

That spoiled milk was absolutely revolting 🤮
