What is a good way to hide tears?

Question

I'm a little upset, and I was starting to cry and I'm one of those people who looks a complete mess when I've been crying. My eyes get red and bloodshot, my nose is red and runny. I have to face some of my students, and coworkers shortly, and don't want to walk out of my office looking like this because I don't feel like dealing with questions about what is wrong. Does anyone have a remedy for hiding the after effects of crying?

Answer 1

mostly time

but you can put cold water on your face

and fan yourself

Answer 2

wear your sunglasses if you have a pair and if people ask you why you are wearing them tell them that they're prescription sunglasses and you can't find you regular glasses.  Or say you had an allergic reaction to something and started rubbing your eyes.  hence the redness

wash your face with some cold water and apply some makeup on. I'm sure you wont look like you've been crying...but whatever you were crying about, i hope everything's alright =/

Answer 9

Make sure you separate your eyelashes [with your fingers] because clumpy, wet eyelashes are a sign of crying.

Wipe off the tear tracks and just put some cover-up on the red parts of your face.

If anyone still asks, tell them you have a cold. lol

Pass it off as allergies.
