Surface Forms

Morphology

shitface + expression

The noun 'expression' (facial sign) is transparent, and the compound element 'shitface' transparently signals a rude/derogatory quality by combining the known words 'shit' + 'face'. However 'shitface' is slang, not a standard lexical item, and its exact nuance (insulting, mocking, or implying drunkenness) is variable and culturally marked, so a B1 learner may infer a general negative/silly facial expression but not the precise register or nuance without exposure.

Etymology

Shitface expression comes from rude slang that joins shit and face. shit is a strong rude word for something bad and face means the look on someone's face. The picture you get is of a face so bad or silly it is called 'shit', so the phrase came to mean 'a mean or silly look'.
