**Go for a light touch just before the kiss. While a hand lightly on the face is a definite signal of intimacy, holding hands combined with eye contact and a warm look can indicate the beginning of a great kiss to come.

 

            **Make sure you are aligned correctly at this point. This means not only getting your lips on track with theirs, but getting the head tilted correctly as well.

 

            **Tilt your head slightly to one side first.  Your partner will likely react and tilt the other way. This is a mutual sign that the kiss will be very welcomed.

 

STEP THREE

 

            **Relax your lips, close your eyes.

 

            **Move in slowly. During step number two you made sure the two of you were aligned correctly, now you can close your eyes as you’re just about to make contact.

 

            **Relax your lips, not tightly pressed together. Give your partner the pleasant experience of feeling your lips softly against theirs.

 

            **Your lips should be recently moistened, but not wet.

 

STEP FOUR

 

            **Relax your lips, tilt your head and breathe evenly.

 

            **Moving in, you can part your lips slightly just before contact. Keep your lips relaxed, your tongue in your mouth.

 

            **Keep your head tilted so both of you can still breathe comfortably on contact and as the perfect kiss is held...

 

            S A V O R every moment ... be slow, gentle, easy.

 

STEP FIVE

 

            **Keep it sweet, not too long and not too wet.

 

            **Don’t pull away too quickly or make any quick movements. Savor. Savor. Savor. Feel the power and romance of the kiss.

 

            Enjoy the moment!
