🥵 Hot Face Emoji — Meaning & Usage
Smileys & People📋 Copied 39.8K times
Description
Feast your eyes on this face flushed red with sweat drops and tongue hanging out — the universal "I'm dying of heat" reaction. Added in Unicode 11.0 (2018) as the counterpart to 🥶 (cold face). It pulls triple duty: literal heat (summer in Texas), spicy food (ghost pepper challenges), and finding someone attractive ("have you seen their new photos 🥵"). That third meaning is the one that dominates on social media, especially in quote tweets and replies to selfies. Apple's version has a more saturated red; Google's leans slightly orange.
When to Use
Use when it's too hot, eating something spicy, or seeing someone attractive.
Example Usage
- “It's so hot outside 🥵”
- “That spice level 🥵”
- “Have you seen them? 🥵”
