As the name suggests, the emoji refers to the teeth clenching cold one feels during the winter. The emoji is symbolic of biting winter cold, as the name implies. It reflects a frosty, cold face, the icy chill, and icicles.
🥶 Cold Face emoji shows a blue face with gritted teeth, like braving a blizzard. Big names like Apple, Samsung, and Microsoft depict it with icicles hanging from the cheeks, whereas Google shows a snowy face suggesting extreme cold. This emoji, introduced in 2018, Unicode 11.0, isn't just about the physical cold.
Interestingly, 🥶 can also hint at "cold" meaning "unfriendly." You might text it after talking with a rude person. It can represent "cool" or "excellent" in a trendy way.
In other use cases, going skiing and caught in a snowstorm? 🥶 + ⛷️ conveys that! Not just an emoji, it tells a story of endurance in harsh weather. If you're frostbitten while snowboarding, pair it with a snowboarder emoji, 🏂, for extra effect.
This emoji can also represent those moments when you're figuratively "frozen" with fear or amazement. Consider it the winter version of "I can't even." Online, 🥶 can symbolize a detached response or a cold-hearted person. It balances external and internal cold, often with a pinch of fun.
