face with tears of joy emoji meaning
Also known as the crying with laughter emoji, LOL face or the CWL face. This is one of the most popular ways to express amusement or intense joy. The smile is similar to many of the Grinning Face emoji styles - but the addition of the scrunched and teary eyes makes this expression far more than just another happy emoji.
