<p>See also:&nbsp;<a href="/rolling-on-the-floor-laughing/">🤣&nbsp;Rolling on the Floor Laughing</a>&nbsp;which expresses more intense laughter;&nbsp;or cat&nbsp;variant:&nbsp;<a href="/cat-with-tears-of-joy/">😹&nbsp;Cat Face With Tears of Joy</a>.</p>

Face with Tears of Joy

<p>Has the same grin and eyes as&nbsp;<a href="/grinning-face-with-smiling-eyes/">😄 Grinning Face With Smiling Eyes</a>&nbsp;but with a single, blue bead of sweat, usually over its left eye. Intended to depict nerves or discomfort but commonly used to express a close call, as if saying <em>Whew!</em> and wiping sweat from the forehead.&nbsp;</p>

Smiling Face with Open Mouth and Cold Sweat

<p>A yellow face with scrunched, X-shaped eyes and a big grin, sticking out its <a href="/tongue/">tongue</a>. Often conveys a sense of fun, excitement, playfulness, hilarity, and happiness, as if saying <i>Squee!</i> or <i>Awesome! </i></p>

<p>Similar to <a href="/grinning-squinting-face/">😆&nbsp;Grinning Squinting Face</a>.<i>&nbsp;</i>Generally more exuberant than <a href="/face-with-tongue/">😛&nbsp;Face With Tongue</a> and <a href="/winking-face-with-tongue/">😜&nbsp;Winking Face With Tongue</a>. Samsung <a href="/samsung/touchwiz-7.1/squinting-face-with-tongue/">previously featured</a> a more sour expression.</p>

Rolling on the Floor Laughing

<p>A yellow smiley face melting into a puddle.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The eyes and mouth slip down the face, yet still maintain a distorted smile. This quality lends this emoji to sarcasm.</p>
