• Kissing Tip: It can be strange to stop in the middle of a passionate kiss. Finish it off with a few closed-mouth, gentle kisses, before pulling away.

  • Kissing Tip: You don’t need to launch into the passion. Build it up slowly with small, gentle, closed-mouth kisses on the lips, before opening your mouth.

  • Kissing Tip: Start by kissing your partner on the lips. Then, slowly transition from the lips to the neck, and then back to the lips again.

  • Kissing Tip: Move your lips and mouth in a rhythm that matches your partner. Leaving your mouth open and just moving your tongue can be awkward.

  • Kissing Tip: Be aware of the length of your tongue, and never push your tongue too far into your partner’s mouth, as this may be uncomfortable.

  • Kissing Tip: If you know you might be kissing someone, wear less lipstick or lip gloss. You don’t want it to get all your partner’s face.

  • Kissing Tip: For a delicious kiss, have a sip of your favourite drink, and leave a little of it on your lips before kissing your partner.

  • Kissing Tip: Bad breath is such a turn-off, and smoker’s breath is the absolute worst! Keep a mint or two on you, which you can pop in your mouth before a date.

  • Kissing Tip: Keep your eyes closed. Keeping your eyes open may distract you, and no one wants to be stared at.

  • Kissing Tip: In the middle of a kiss, move your lips away from theirs slightly to breathe in through your mouth instead of your nose. It’s incredibly intimate.
