✨ · Activities › Events & holidays · Emoji 0.6 (2010)
✨ is a small cluster of yellow sparkles, like light glinting off something brand new.
It adds shine. People use it for things that feel magical, fresh, clean or special, and to decorate a sentence: '✨new profile pic✨'. Wrapping words in sparkles can also be playfully sarcastic, a kind of jazz hands, as in '✨self care✨' meaning a whole tub of ice cream.
Paint with ✨ in the emoji art editor, or turn any photo into emojis with the image to emoji converter.
