Nail polish: medium-dark skin tone Emoji
People
A hand with a medium-dark skin tone held out to display freshly painted, glossy pink fingernails. The hand is angled as if the person is inspecting a manicure or waiting for the polish to dry.
Usage Context
This emoji is the go-to way to signal sass, indifference, or a 'whatever' attitude. It is frequently used after calling someone out or to show that you are unbothered by drama, much like the ๐ person tipping hand emoji. It also works for its literal meaning: showing off a trip to the salon.
History
The base nail polish emoji was added to the Unicode standard in 2010. Skin tone modifiers were introduced in 2015 as part of the Unicode 8.0 update, allowing users to select from the Fitzpatrick scale to better represent diverse groups of people across mobile messaging platforms.
