Where it comes from
Hearts as eyes is the same idea as the heart-eyes emoji, but drawn with text: ♥ for each eye, ‿ for the smile and ｡ for blushing cheeks.
When to use it
Use it to react to something adorable or delicious, or to gush about a crush. It is fine in casual chat but sounds overexcited in a work thread.
Examples
- That puppy!! (｡♥‿♥｡)
- This cake is perfect (｡♥‿♥｡)

What it is made of
Every character in the face with its Unicode code point — handy if one shows up as a box on a friend's phone.
