How to Be Kissable

A person's kissability can be negatively affected by many factors, including bad breath and chapped lips. However, there are plenty of things you can do to minimize these problems and make yourself more kissable.


Steps

1. Have fresh breath. Begin by brushing and flossing your teeth twice daily. During the day, especially after meals, use breath mints or breath strips. Breath strips work better, especially if you've just ended a garlicky dinner or whatnot. Be careful about gum because you will have to get rid of it before kissing. Or keep it and once you are more comfortable, you might suggest a game where you and your partner try to trade pieces.
2. Make sure that your lips are well moisturized. You should also apply lip balm frequently (carry one in your pocket or purse). This will help keep your lips soft.
3. Don't forget to look after your skin. Use products with shea butter, it's better than most other skincare ingredients and it doesn't leave a greasy feel after use (who would want to kiss you if your skin shines like sweat?).
4. Make plenty of eye contact. This provides the intimate connection that is an invitation to kissing.
5. Being comfortable makes you appear more relaxed and therefore more kissable. Make sure you are wearing comfortable clothes. And if you're a guy, most girls like smooth hairless faces so dont forget to shave if you need to.
6. Make sure to look at your (future) partner's lips every once in a while. This connotes the idea of kissing and hopefully he/she will pick up the hint (:


Tips

* Guys: When you notice a girl leaning towards you & looking you dead in the eye she wants to kiss. If the environment is not conducive to a kiss, use the next opportunity.
* A surprise kiss is often quite memorable, but if you don't know if the person likes you as more than a friend, it can be a disaster.
* When you kiss someone (especially if it is just a casual kiss) DO NOT pucker your lips (in other words, don't "smooch")! It also helps not to lick your lips; no one likes a messy, wet kiss.
* If you smoke, quit! In addition to being bad for your health, smoking yellows your teeth and causes severe bad breath, which will keep others from even thinking about kissing you!
* If you're a girl, wear a light shade of lipstick or flavored lip gloss so it shows the guy you are up for a kiss.
* Girls : Almost every guy wants to kiss a girl, sometimes even in the earlier stages in a relationship. If you want to kiss, most likely the guy you're with wants to kiss. Go for it!
* Make your kiss last long, and if you want to remember it keep your position and keep following up with kisses. You don't want your kiss to be over in a second.


Warnings

* If you have severe bad breath that is not helped by brushing, flossing, etc., consult your dentist or doctor. Listerine might help so an extra 30 seconds will not hurt!
