A lips emoji can mean many different things, so it’s totally natural to feel a little confused when someone sends one to you. Plus, there are a couple of lips emojis to consider—and while the 💋 (kiss mark) emoji and the 👄 (mouth) emoji look similar, they could totally change the meaning of a message. Don’t worry; we’re here to help you figure out what each lip emoji means and how you can use them to write and interpret messages in the future!
💋 Lips Emoji Meaning
The 💋 lips emoji means "kiss" or "kissing" when you're texting someone you love, like "Wish I could 💋 you right now." Use the lips emoji whenever you want to be more playful and flirty with the person you're texting.

1
Most commonly, the 💋 emoji represents a kiss. It can replace the words “kiss” or “kissing” in a message or add extra emphasis at the end of a message that talks about kissing somehow. Use it when you want to send somebody you love a kiss.
- “Wanna 💋 you so bad!”
- “Thinking about kissing you right now… 💋”

The 💋 emoji is often seductive. Because it looks like a lip print made by lipstick, there’s a sultry quality to the 💋 emoji. Couples often use it to flirt, entice, or outright seduce their partner through messages. Use it when you want to show someone that you’re ready to turn up the heat![1]
- “Tonight is going to be amazing. 💋”
- “Still thinking about the dream I had about you last night! 💋🥵”

Sometimes, the 💋 emoji can be used in a friendly way. While it’s often considered flirty or seductive, it’s also common practice to send 💋 to someone you’d comfortably kiss on the cheek or forehead—a best friend or family member, for example. It’s a great way to say, “Love you, friend!”
- “Girl, you’re amazing. Thanks for the help yesterday! 💋”
- “I hope you’re having a lovely day, mom! 💋”

The 💋 emoji might mean that a person is being sassy. When someone talks about kissing in a playful or sarcastic context, they might use the 💋 emoji for emphasis. It can also be used as a cheeky follow-up after saying something with a little too much honesty.
- “I’m not saying a word! My lips are sealed. 💋”
- “You can keep talking, but I don’t actually care that much. 💋”
- “If you want that, you’d better 💋 your wallet goodbye!”

1
A 👄 emoji usually indicates speech or vocals. You can use it more literally in place of writing the word “mouth” or “talk,” or you can use it as emphasis when referencing a conversation. You could even use it to compliment someone’s voice or ask them to stop talking.[2]
- “The vocal cords on this woman are amazing! 👄🎶”
- “I swear this dude will NOT stop talking. 👄”
- “Hey, can you keep it down out there? The 👄 is getting pretty loud.”

The 👄 emoji can also be used to send kisses. In most versions of the emoji, its lips look slightly puckered, like they’re about to kiss someone.[3] As such, you can also use it in place of the word “kiss” and give someone a virtual smooch. The context of the “kiss” can be romantic, familial, or friendly!
- “Sending kisses today! 👄”
- “Please accept this digital 🤗 (hug) and 👄, since I’m not there to give you real ones!”
- “I’m gonna give you the biggest 👄 when I see you tonight! 😍”

Both 💋 and 👄 can be used interchangeably as a kiss. Because they look similar, it’s easy to associate either emoji with kissing—and you can use them to replace the word "kiss" or add emphasis to a message. However, they have secondary meanings that make them useful individually, with 👄 also referring to talking and 💋 having more sassy and seductive vibes.
- “Romance is in the air tonight…💋👄”
- “Enough chatting! Let’s get to the action. 👄💋”
