May convey a heightened or hyperbolic sense of such feelings as&nbsp;shock, surprise, disbelief, awe, and&nbsp;amazement, as if staggered to the point of disorientation (i.e., <a href="/dizzy/">dizzy</a>). May also represent <a href="/face-with-thermometer/">sickness</a>, <a href="/nauseated-face/">nausea</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/woozy-face/">intoxication</a>, and <a href="/skull/">death</a>, e.g., slang I&rsquo;m dead!

Face with Open Mouth and Cold Sweat
