Smiling face with heart-eyes swaps the eyes for two red hearts, the universal sign of being smitten at first sight. Use it for a crush, a stunning photo, a plate of food, or anything else that stops your scroll because it's simply adored on sight.
What 😍 means
A yellow face with a wide-open smile (may have teeth sometimes) and red hearts for eyes. The eyes here, stand out.
The Smiling Face With Heart-Eyes emoji may signify seeing something 'with loving eyes' or finding something/someone attractive or even wow-ing at something. It is usually used to express that you love what you see, hence the hearts for the eyes.
How and when to use it
- If you just saw something that you absolutely loved at first sight, you can send 😍 as a response to it.
- You can use this emoji to show your love for food, art, music, people, anything!
- If someone sent you something extremely adorable and you can only show how you feel, cause you're speechless, you can type in this emoji.

What does 😍 mean from a girl?
She's smitten — by a crush, a puppy, a plate of food, whatever's on her screen right now. It's the emoji version of a jaw-drop, with zero calculation about whether the person it's about can see the message.
What does 😍 mean from a guy?
Genuine attraction or admiration, sent with none of the usual guy-texting restraint. Under a crush's photo it's a compliment with no subtlety left in it; under a car or a pair of sneakers it's just enthusiasm.
What does 😍 mean in texting?
Total adoration, people and objects both welcome. “this cake 😍” and “you 😍” get the same face because the feeling behind them — can't-look-away delight — is identical.
