Use emojis that represent your brand and that match your Instagram Story Highlights.
For example, @cloverandco_official uses a pink flower emoji. Her Highlight covers are also flowers.
Use the “Black Cross” emoji for a sharp look, like @ninaclairephotographer.
Want to keep it minimal? Use a white heart or white circle emoji like @wyldefolkstudio_.
Add a lot of space between the emojis and the text to give an aesthetic feel to your bio, like @nicaseitz.
Add an emoji then a vertical line to give a cool effect, like @mousetrvp.
Choose emojis that represent what you post about.
For example, @cassdellerdesign paints a lot of things related to the ocean and fruits. So she chose the “Paint palette”, “shell” and “lemon” emojis.
