A classic smiley, turned upside down. Implemented as a flipped version of&nbsp;<a href="/slightly-smiling-face/">🙂 Slightly Smiling Face</a>&nbsp;on most platforms.

Commonly used to convey&nbsp;irony, sarcasm, joking, or a sense of goofiness or silliness.&nbsp;Its intent can be&nbsp;similar to the bemused Oh well! of <a href="/person-shrugging/">🤷&nbsp;Person Shrugging</a> or the shruggie emoticon, &macr;\_(ツ)_/&macr;.

Microsoft&#39;s design <a href="/microsoft/windows-10-anniversary-update/upside-down-face/">previously featured</a> a full-toothed grin.

Upside-Down Face

Thumbs Up Sign

A face that appears to be shaking from side to side with its eyes and mouth open wide.

Additionally it can represent dizziness, double takes,&nbsp;or double vision.

&nbsp;

Head Shaking Horizontally

A yellow face with simple, open eyes and a thin, closed smile. Conveys a wide range of positive, happy, and friendly sentiments. Its tone can&nbsp;also be patronizing, passive-aggressive, or ironic, as if saying This is fine when it&rsquo;s really not.

A yellow face with furrowed eyebrows looking upwards with thumb and index finger resting on its chin. Intended to show a person pondering or deep in thought.&nbsp;Often used to question or scorn something or someone,&nbsp;as if saying Hmm, I don&#39;t know about that.

Joins <a href="/hugging-face/">🤗&nbsp;Hugging Face</a>, <a href="/shushing-face/">🤫&nbsp;Shushing Face</a>, and <a href="/face-with-hand-over-mouth/">🤭&nbsp;Face With Hand Over Mouth</a> as one of the few smileys featuring a hand.
