confused face

Look of bafflement

A confused face is a facial expression showing bewilderment or lack of understanding—furrowed brow, squinted eyes, perhaps a tilted head.

The term often refers to the emoji 😕 used in digital communication to convey puzzlement or mild distress: She sent a confused face when I told her the meeting was canceled.
