🤫Shushing Face Emoji
🤫 shushing face — U+1F92B, added in Emoji 5.0 (2017). Unicode groups it with the other 7 with hands emojis under Smileys & Emotion.
What 🤫 shushing face means
Hands over the mouth do the work of a stage whisper - gasping at gossip, covering a laugh, or admitting something you probably should not have said. 🤔 has drifted from genuine deliberation into pointed skepticism, the emoji equivalent of a slow blink. 🫢 and 🫣, added in 2021, cover the peeking-through-fingers reaction that older faces could not.
Unicode tags this one face, quiet and shh and files it under Smileys & Emotion → With Hands.
