clown face
Painted performer's mug
A clown face is the painted, exaggerated features of a circus or party clown—white base, red nose, oversized smile.
The term describes both the makeup itself and the expression it creates.
As an insult, calling someone a clown face suggests they look foolish or wear garish makeup: Nice clown face—did you apply that in the dark?
The emoji 🤡 has made clown face shorthand for mockery online.
