A yellow face with a hand covering its mouth. Displays most often with&nbsp;smiling eyes and/or blushing cheeks, suggesting coy laughter or embarrassment, as if cheekily saying&nbsp;Oops! 

Prior to the release of <a href="/apple/ios-15.4/">iOS 15.4</a> in March 2022, Apple&#39;s design&nbsp;<a href="/apple/ios-11.1/face-with-hand-over-mouth/">featured</a> simple, open eyes, suggesting someone gasping Oh my! in serious surprise, shock, concern, or apology. This same update assigned Apple&#39;s original 🤭 design to <a href="/emoji-14.0/">Emoji 14.0</a>&#39;s new&nbsp;<a href="/face-with-open-eyes-and-hand-over-mouth/">🫢 Face with Open Eyes and Hand Over Mouth</a> emoji.

May be used to similar effect as <a href="/speak-no-evil-monkey/">🙊 Speak-No-Evil Monkey.</a>&nbsp;See also <a href="/zipper-mouth-face/">🤐&nbsp;Zipper-Mouth Face</a>.&nbsp;Joins <a href="/hugging-face/">🤗&nbsp;Hugging Face</a>, <a href="/thinking-face/">🤔&nbsp;Thinking Face</a>, and <a href="/shushing-face/">🤫&nbsp;Shushing Face</a> as one of the few smileys featuring hands.

Facebook&#39;s design <a href="/facebook/4.0/face-with-hand-over-mouth/">previously featured</a> open eyes, though an earlier version had&nbsp;<a href="/facebook/2.1/face-with-hand-over-mouth/">smiling eyes</a>&nbsp;like those in the vendor&#39;s current design.

Smiling Face with Smiling Eyes and Hand Covering Mouth

The Three Wise Monkeys represent the proverb see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, frequently interpreted as&nbsp;a call for discretion or willful ignorance.

Often used as a playful way to convey I can&rsquo;t believe what I just said!, express a mischievous Oops!, or communicate a secret-keeping I won&rsquo;t say a word. May be used to similar effect as <a href="/face-with-hand-over-mouth/">🤭 Face With Hand Over Mouth</a> or <a href="/zipper-mouth-face/">🤐 Zipper Mouth</a>.

See also <a href="/see-no-evil-monkey/">🙈 See-No-Evil Monkey</a> and <a href="/hear-no-evil-monkey/">🙉 Hear-No-Evil Monkey</a>.

Most platforms feature the same eyes as on their <a href="/angry-face/">😠 Angry Face</a>.
