Kiss day becomes crucial as almost everyone in a relationship craves for a touch of affection. A kiss on this day is a heartfelt expression of love and attraction for your special someone and also shows the depth of romantic connection. On this special day of love, here are some tips for first-timers as well as seasoned pros.
Make sure your lips are ready for a kiss
Always make sure your lips are ready for a kiss. Reapply your lipstick or lip moisturizer to achieve that perfect kiss. The cold season comes with a lot of dryness and can be harsh on your lips, making them look dull. Use a lip scrub to remove dead cells from your lips, which will help keep your lips smooth and soft.
Bad breath is a big turn off
Nothing kills the mood like bad breath. For a passionate kiss, prefer fresh breath. Regular dental hygiene such as brushing, frequent mouthwash and flossing is important. However, a quick spritz of mint before a kiss can protect against any lingering food aroma.
Ask for consent
Getting consent is not awkward but respectful. Before planting that perfect kiss, make sure your partner is in the same boat. The mood may seem right, but consent can make it truly magical.
Understand your partner's body language
Pay attention to your partner's movements such as bending or stretching. This will let you know if they are into it or not. Verbal communication may not always be possible, but body language speaks volumes.
It is important to maintain eye contact
While kissing, it is better not to close your eyes or blush. Maintaining eye contact adds an intimate touch to the experience and allows you to share the moment more deeply with your partner.
