What is 🤭️ called?

🤭️ is called the Face with hand over mouth emoji.

Often called the oops face, giggling face or hand-over-mouth face. “Oops” reflects sudden realization, while the smiling eyes make the covered mouth look amused rather than horrified.

What does 🤭️ mean?

The face with hand over mouth emoji expresses a giggle, a playful “oops,” amused embarrassment, or sudden realization. It often appears when someone has said too much, noticed a small mistake, or is trying not to laugh.

Its smiling eyes and covered mouth give it a lighter tone than 🫢 Face with open eyes and hand over mouth, which usually conveys shock or disbelief. 🤫 Shushing face asks for quiet deliberately rather than reacting after the fact.

Use it for a harmless secret, a cheeky admission, restrained laughter, or a surprised reaction that is more delighted than alarmed.

Other meanings

It can suggest coyness, gossip, knowing amusement, or pretending innocence. In some contexts the hand-over-mouth gesture may show politeness while laughing rather than secrecy.

Example Usage

I sent the message to the wrong group chat 🤭

I know who organised the surprise, but I am saying nothing 🤭

More details

Its Unicode code point is U+1F92D, and it was introduced in Emoji 5.0. Emoji 14.0 later added 🫢 Face with open eyes and hand over mouth so shock and open-eyed surprise could be represented more distinctly.

Visual description

A round yellow face holds one hand over its mouth. Most current designs show smiling or closed eyes and may include rosy cheeks, creating a giggling or bashful expression.

Hand position, eye shape, and blush vary by platform. The smiling eyes are the clearest visual distinction from the open-eyed hand-over-mouth face.

⚠️ Emoji appearance varies by platform.
