🤢

Nauseated Face Emoji 🤢

Where face vomiting lets it all out, nauseated face is the green-faced effort of holding a gag reflex shut. It's the reaction to something gross enough to turn your stomach, whether that's a smell, a video, or a person you can't stand.

What 🤢 means

Above that clenched mouth sit blank eyes and frowned eyebrows, which is what turns this into a whole-face reaction instead of just a held-back gag. And the trigger can be almost anything — a video, or a specific person you can't stand the sight of.

The 🤢 Nauseated Face emoji shows a sense of being grossed out or cringe-maxed by something you read, heard or watched. This emoji also signals the other person to stop thinking from their rectum and begin thinking and texting from the brain.

How and when to use it

Use this emoji as a reaction to something super, SUPER cringe, or extremely gross you just witnessed.
If your friend is giving you unnecessary details about his/her dream or a filthy memory, use this emoji as a cry for help.
If you're sending something horrifyingly gross to your homies, send this emoji along as a disclaimer.
This emoji also works great to just tell someone that you're nauseous.

🤢 in real conversations

What does 🤢 mean in texting?

Disgust — something looks, sounds, or tastes revolting. It works for actual gross-out moments (spoiled food, a gory clip) and for people: 'he texted his ex again 🤢' is disapproval dressed as nausea.

What does 🤢 mean from a girl?

Usually calling something, or someone, genuinely off-putting — an ick moment, a gross habit, a creepy DM. It's blunter than 😒; there's no ambiguity about whether she's into it.

Is 🤢 stronger than 🤮?

Slightly milder — 🤢 is queasy, on-the-verge disgust, while 🤮 is full projectile revulsion. Both mean 'gross,' but 🤮 gets pulled out for the truly unforgivable.
