How it's used

This phrase is a highly descriptive and derogatory way to characterize someone's facial features as unattractive. It specifically targets the bone structure around the eyes and forehead rather than just general appearance. Because it is quite offensive, it is rarely used in polite company and is considered a personal insult.

Examples

He looks very ugly with deep-set eyes and a protruding forehead.
Don't call people ugly with deep-set eyes and a protruding forehead, it's very rude.

Common phrases

to be born with deep-set eyes and a protruding forehead

Common mistake

Do not use this phrase to describe someone neutrally or as a medical observation. It is strictly an insult and will likely cause significant offense if used in conversation.
