An emoji showing someone covering part of their face with the palm of their hand. It's gender-neutral and can represent any person. The expression conveys bewilderment and frustration — eyes squeezed shut and the mouth drawn into a slight grimace.
This emoji depicts a facepalm, also known as a hand-to-face gesture. People use it to react to something stupid or to show disappointment or embarrassment. It can sometimes express shame.
