Definitions
A red face with its tongue out and small water droplets, looking sweaty. Reads two ways: "you're attractive / I'm attracted to you" (the dominant read) and "this is too hot to handle" (literal heat / spicy food / heatwave). In flirting it's very direct โ past ๐ into "I want you" territory. Also gets used ironically for heatwave selfies and gym-thirst-trap reactions.

A yellow face blowing a kiss with a heart floating out of its mouth.
