The Lip Pout

When we push the lower lip against the upper upper lip and the lower lip moves out it is a look of disappointment, displeasure, sadness, or uncertainty.

I have seen this in business settings when someone doesn't like what is being said to another and the chin points out towards the offender.

Children can use it to show frustration when their requests are not honored. It is probably most often noticed when someone is using this gesture to plead for 'something' for both children and adults.◦

The Jaw Drop

Here we see it in conjunction with the facial expression of surprise. If the eyes were not wide open it would be considered subtle surprise. We can usually see the jaw drop when someone is excited, surprised, or even in times of uncertainty.◦
