Valentine's Day. It is a celebration filled with the ultimate expressions of love: long stemmed red roses, heart-shaped boxes of ooey gooey chocolates, and unabashed queries from the heart for the heart.
Hopefully, it's also a celebration filled with the sweetest of kisses with that certain someone who has captured your heart.
For many, February 14th is synonymous with deliveries of beautiful bouquets, amorous notes and little surprise packages tied with thrills and frills all up in a bow. Then, if all goes as planned, it's capped with hand-holding and nuzzling over dreamy Valentine's dinners complete with soft candlelight and assorted appetizers, aphrodisiac in nature, where desire overfloweth like champagne from Cupid's fountain.
With all this romantic razzle-dazzle crackling like Technicolor fireworks against a clear night sky, there's bound to be some kissing, if not lots of kissing, afoot (or a-lip!).
Considering this holiday is rooted in the Ancient Roman pagan fertility festival of Lupercalia, its no wonder this wonderful expression of love would abound!
A memorable kiss all starts with your lips and mouth.
- Floss and brush with more care than usual to make sure your teeth are sparkly clean and your breath snappy fresh (you wouldn't want to get dinged on a technicality!).
- As for your lips, moisturize daily and generously with an emollient (this goes for men too).
- You want your pucker smooth, soft, and sexy so they'll be coming back for more.
- Brilliant "snogging" (that's the "Queen's English" for kissing!) isn't just about an inviting mouth and supple lips, it's about the right mind and spirit.
- To give your smooches that winning sizzle, empty your head from the static of the day, and just concentrate on the pleasure you're about to give and/or receive. It will bring magic to the moment.

- To go along with the right frame of mind, you need the right frame of mood.
- For especially comfy canoodling, light a few candles, play some dreamy music, nibble on some snacks and sip a lovely beverage, and curl up together like a yummy jellyroll.
- If you're in a restaurant, request a corner table (a booth is even better), and enjoy a little necking in your little nook. Or, create your own nook at home with a Simply Romantic Dinner .
- This Valentine's Day, whether you are kissing your lover, mother, friend or brother, remember to kiss with enthusiasm, respect, abandon and no regret.
- Kiss knowing each one counts for something.
- And forever be in quest of kissing.
