Method 1 of 3:

Prepping your Lips

1
Exfoliate your lips to make them soft. You don't want your lips hard or chapped and dry.^{[1]

- Make your own lip scrub by combining a pinch of brown sugar and a little honey, olive oil, or coconut oil.^{[2]

- Gently rub the exfoliant or toothbrush over your lips using small, circular motions. Don't be too rough.
- Wipe your lips with a washcloth to remove all the petroleum jelly or lip exfoliator.
2
Moisturize your lips to keep them soft. Instead of a lip gloss or chapstick, which can seal the skin on your lips and keep moisture out, look specifically for a lip moisturizer and apply it right after showering.^{[3]

- Look for a lip moisturizer with vitamins A, B, and E which moisturize and help with absorbency.^{[4]

Brush your teeth and tongue well in advance. If you're going to use a real piece of candy and not a flavored lip gloss, the minty flavor of the toothpaste may interfere with the sweetness of the candy and create a bad taste. You definitely want to start with a clean mouth, however, so make sure you brush your teeth 30-60 minutes before you think you're going to kiss your partner, so the mint flavor has time to fade.
- If you're planning to flavor your lips only, try to brush your teeth right before you meet your partner.

Method 2 of 3:

Flavoring your Kiss with Candy

1
Buy a lollipop or candy in a flavor you know your partner likes. If you're not sure what they like, try a safe, popular candy, either something minty or fruity. Most people like chocolate, but if you rub chocolate on your lips it will look sloppy and unappealing. It will also ruin the surprise!
2
Wet the candy and rub it on your lips like a lipstick. Try to keep it just on your lips, as it may leave a shine or stickiness that would look gross on the rest of your face. The flavor may not last very long, so make sure your partner is nearby, but not watching you.
- You may want to let the candy dissolve in your mouth and on your tongue, but beware: the bacteria in your mouth loves sugar and this can cause bad breath!^{[6]

Kiss your partner! If you think your partner is up for it, you may want to keep the candy in your mouth (if it's a hard candy, like a butterscotch or mint). You can pass the candy back and forth between your mouths. This is a risk, though--your partner may think it's gross or choke on the candy if they are not expecting it!

Method 3 of 3:

Flavoring your Kiss with Lip Gloss

1
Buy a candy flavored lip gloss or chapstick. You can find these online or in dollar stores. From fruity flavors to root beer to your favorite brand of candy, there's a lip gloss out there that will fit your or your partner's tastes.
2
Apply the lip gloss to your lips. Don't cake it on, as that can be sticky and gross. Do this right before you plan to make your move.
- Try wearing a fragrance that is similar to the flavor of your lip gloss. If you are wearing strawberry lip gloss, look for a fruity body spray and apply just a hint. When you lean in for the kiss, your partner will have the smell in their nose and may experience the taste with more intensity.

Kiss your partner!
