The 😬 grimacing face emoji was introduced in Emoji E1.0 and is now supported across all major platforms including iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS.
The 😬 grimacing face emoji belongs to the Smileys & Emotion category, specifically in the Neutral & Skeptical Faces subcategory.
😬 shows a cringe or grimace, not a smile. Despite showing teeth like happy emojis, the wide-open eyes indicate awkwardness, nervousness, or second-hand embarrassment. It's perfect for "yikes" moments, mistakes, or uncomfortable situations - never for happiness.
