How to artificially induce a runny nose and red eyes?

Eat a bucket of ice!

Dip your finger in some office glue (not too much) and then into your nose. A student's way to skip class.

Better simulate high blood pressure or a headache.

Smell the laundry detergent.

And I remember this method from my school days: that's how a classmate taught me to dodge PE class. Just - correctly: you need just a little bit of glue and right before "the exit."

But are you sure you don't want to celebrate the New Year with your colleagues?

You can still look respectable even among ladies sparkling with jewels and expensive outfits if your goal is to have a good time, not to make everyone burst with envy. And not to focus on them, but to enjoy yourself. What if the evening is wonderfully organized, and you miss out on a lot?

After all, corporate parties and informal gatherings with colleagues bring people closer, make them more connected. And if you give in to weakness and skip the party, you'll distance yourself from the team and become an outsider.

Maybe you have something decent enough to wear so you don't have to smear glue on your nose and can have fun celebrating the New Year with everyone?

+ a drop of vodka in each eye. Your eyes will be red and teary for a couple of hours. Then use soothing eye drops.

You shameless one! What are you trying to teach?!))

Better to put in something to dilate the pupils and laugh inappropriately a couple of times—the effect will be even cooler :)

Who needs your dress and diamonds anyway! Just go in a business suit and don't sweat it. On topic: boys at school used to eat pencil lead, claiming it guaranteed a fever and red eyes. Though, I'm not sure how much you'd need to eat :))

What does envy or the desire to impress have to do with it? There is a certain dress code, and it's very difficult to feel free and at ease if you're dressed in clothes from a Chinese store. After work in the evening, you can stay in casual clothes, or if you're meeting someone one-on-one, then you're the queen. But an evening corporate event at a restaurant requires you to fit in. And if you have to spend at least a month's salary on it—money that might be needed not just for her but also for her children—then the pleasure from such an "outing" would be highly questionable.

Make a strong salt solution, pour it into a bottle like a "Nasal Spray" dropper, meaning one that you can press to spray from it. Believe me, you'll have both a runny nose and tears. However, this procedure needs to be repeated periodically. It even worked at the clinic to get a sick leave. :)))

Absolutely, absolutely!!!! I did it that way, very convenient. You can also "add" it to your nose from this bottle during everything - since it's a runny nose, you need to drip it into your nose. Guaranteed streaming snot, sneezing, and red eyes. And for the eyes, you can sleep with mascara on at night - they'll be red too. And eat herring at night - on top of everything, your face will be a bit swollen. And good luck to you in the new year, so you don't have such problems and can afford the very, very best dress!!!!!

Once again, I learned something bad on Wuman )

I've taken notes on everything )

Just in case )

There may be additional psychological reasons why the author doesn't want to go. Perhaps a colleague is unpleasant, maybe something about their work status is unsatisfactory, and they lack the energy or desire to pretend "everyone is happy, everyone is laughing." There's already enough interaction with married women at work to then feel marginalized in the evening as well. Perhaps this woman is no longer in her twenties, and feminine beauty at a certain age requires an appropriate setting. And if she's already been labeled an "outsider," do you think she has any desire to go? Just don't advise her that she'll meet "her destiny" there. That's definitely nonsense.

Author, apply a spoonful of mustard or "Zvezdochka" under your eyes and in your nose!

If we're on the topic, red pepper helps too. But honestly, it would be great if you went there and didn't care about what others are wearing. The main thing isn't the clothes but your confidence that you're the best, even in a T-shirt and ripped jeans. And then you'll be the queen—I'm speaking from personal experience.

Kids, take notes, take notes!

You need to get treated!)))

Author, just go as you are, don't stress. At the corporate party, you'll have a drink, and your aunties in diamonds will too, and everyone will become equal, you'll see.

How many useful tips are there!!!!!!!!!!

Sniff some dry mustard.

[quote="Baba Yaga"]Author, just go as you are, don't stress. At the corporate party, you'll have a drink, and your aunties in diamonds will too, and everyone will become equal, you'll see.

At first, everyone will be staring, but if I were in your place, I definitely wouldn't pay attention to those plump aunties with diamonds.

What these aunties will never have is your youth.

And what makes you think the author is young, and that the women in diamonds are actually "aunties"? Maybe it's the opposite—she is the "auntie" whose youth and prime were stolen by perestroika, while the young ones are in diamonds because "they deserve it," as the ads say? And a woman nearing 40 has no desire to endure that humiliation on New Year's Eve, pretending she's happy in a "made in China" dress?

But at our corporate party, no one is exactly sparkling with diamonds.

On the contrary, no one even wears decent fur coats.

We must be the wrong kind of company.

I really need this! ) Can you tell me what exactly dilates the pupils?

You're all so mean here! Author, eat a kilogram of ice cream. You'll get pleasure and catch a cold (and maybe more than just a cold), and you'll miss the corporate event. Instead, they're suggesting laundry detergent and mustard! Go ahead and sniff that filth yourselves.

Atropine, scopolamine, homatropine, adrenaline - Yandex to the rescue.

We're preparing something tasty that includes onions. Then you can sauté them with carrots and add them wherever needed—there are plenty of recipes. And time it so that these people see you right after chopping the onions! :)))

And if no one sees you, you can just fake a sick voice over the phone and say—so and so, I'm sick, I won't make it!

As an alternative, the author could insert a clove of garlic into the anal cavity. That would give you a high fever, malaise, and generally symptoms of a fever if you put in the effort. Our forensic medicine instructor told us about it. Although it's easier to just claim a headache. You just need to put on a tortured expression.

In my humble opinion, the most reasonable thing is to plead a headache. But personally, when I had to "go out into society" where there would be rich little puppets, I tried to dress more originally. More often than not, it turned out exactly as I needed: meaning, I was the center of attention from both men and women, while they were adjusting their brand names and little sparkles in the restroom...

Then you could end up in a sobering-up station :o)

pardon - GNK:o)

Oh... someone got carried over from another topic :o)

I don't know how the saline solution helps you. For me, it has the opposite effect. I sometimes get sinusitis, and I rinse with it—it's the only thing that relieves my runny nose and inflammation! But if I add a bit more salt, I get a terrible burn on my mucous membranes. No runny nose, just everything burning and hurting. My eyes don't turn red at all.

I'd rather dab a very weak solution of red pepper tincture on my tear gland—swollen, red eyes are guaranteed. Once, I took out my contact lenses after using such a tincture and looked like a very sick person for several hours afterward. And glue in the nose to make it run.

Actually, I have the same problem—I really don't want to go to the corporate event. Just for a different reason: I find it boring there.

Author. You can induce these symptoms by spraying pepper spray (Shock brand will do) from a distance of 1 meter and inhaling... If you spray it directly on yourself, that would be overkill! But this way... still be careful. And why imitate anything at all - just call and say: I'm sick...

I went to that corporate party. In the grand scheme of things, it probably doesn't matter what you wear—diamonds and mink or silver and tinsel decorations. But the younger ones are chosen as favorites, and those in diamonds are in special demand. Do you think it's pleasant to sit alone on a small couch and watch the "chosen ones"? I get enough of this loneliness and disrespect in life and at work... Maybe I was right not to have gone there?

Sorry, Guest, but if you didn't want to go so much, who forced you? You only went because of the opinions of all those people mentioned above (no offense). Do you not have your own opinion? You just needlessly ruined your own mood.

cool

Cool

Folks, how do you make this very salt solution??? At least tell me the proportions, pleaase))

I want to smell the laundry detergent.

Take a sniff)

I just inhaled some pepper right in front of the hospital. At first, the sensations were strange, then my nose started running, but it didn't last long.

Wow! So the problem turned out to be an age-old one :) I'm going to try the tips from here now. Honestly, it's amusing when people suggest just going and enjoying yourself and start talking about psychology)) Folks! Seriously, it really happens that you don't want to see your colleagues, or they're boring, or you absolutely don't want to sing/read poetry/jump in sacks, and you feel it's a waste of time, but unfortunately, you can't always refuse directly because it's during work hours((

I rubbed my eyes with soap, for example.

But that's really for the maniacs)

Tropicamide!

I really, really needed to get sick somehow. I prepared for 4 days: drinking cold water and eating ice cream outside. After showering, I sat by an open window (it was February, by the way), went out to walk the dog with wet hair. I rode in a cold car. And what do you think? My damn immune system didn't let me catch a single cold!

I had to go on an unnecessary business trip.

Now I'll try glue..............................................................

The easiest way to get red eyes is simply to rub them hard, but ONLY WITH CLEAN HANDS, otherwise you might introduce some infection. And to make them look teary, just drip some water into them. Sometimes my eyes also water when I pluck my eyebrows)))
