History & usage: The LYING FACE depicts deception or playful disbelief in a handshake of meaning and emotion. Use it in chat to call out a lie in a playful way, or to show doubt about an untrue claim without anger. It works well with memes or captions where someone is not fully truthful, or to add irony to a casual joke. Pair it with clear text to avoid ambiguity in formal content or when tone matters. Across platforms, it may look different and some apps render it in various colors or styles. If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome or text-style fallback may appear. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning and provide context so readers understand the gesture.
