About the Sad black outline icon
A plain circular face carries two curved closed eyelids that dip at the outer edges and a wide downturned mouth, giving a quietly unhappy rather than crying expression. It signals sadness, disappointment, a negative rating or an error state. Use it in customer feedback and CSAT surveys, mood tracking and wellbeing apps, chat and comment reaction sets, empty or error screens, and mental health presentations.
The eyes are drawn as simple arcs with no pupils, which keeps the emotion calm and readable, while the frown curve is set low in the face for balance. It belongs to a mood scale alongside happy, neutral and angry face icons, so keep stroke weight identical across the row. Works well at 24px and up.
This is the black outline version of the sad icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
