You and your beau just came back from a date at your favorite Latin rooftop lounge, followed by salsa dancing, and a walk filled with laughter. As beads of sweat slowly roll down your neck, your special someone is already puckering up-are you ready? Kissing may seem as natural as holding hands and you’ve probably done it more times than you care to remember, but even self proclaimed Latin lovers may need a lesson or two in smooching. For some tips and tricks on giving an unforgettable kiss, we went to Andréa Demirjian, famously coined as “The Kissing Expert.” Demirjian clams that anyone can prep their pouts, but what makes for an amazing kiss that leaves a feel-good memory that can be cherished for years to come?
According to Demirjian, a super caliente kiss is all about how two pairs of lips fit together, the technique being used, and how the right chemistry between a couple can ignite a spark, making someone weak in the knees. Yes you’ll need to be mindful of some basics, but the rewards are priceless and your talents will be the talk of the town. Check out Demirjian’s “Kissing 101” that will have anyone singing “Besame Mucho.”

Kissing 1010: It’s All About the Eyes
The eyes are the sexy beam that sends the “kiss me” signal. Make sure to smile with your eyes, and use them for flirty contact to draw that lucky guy/gal closer to you. And don’t be timid about locking eyes for a split second longer than usual!
Kissing 101: Get Your Hands Ready
The right touch can send shivers up and down someone‘s spine and the perfect time to work your magic is during a makeout session. Make sure to run your fingers through your partner’s hair, or gently caress the lower back of the neck. Ladies, if you are feeling bold, let your hands wander to points across his chest and further south down his belly and thigh-like a lovable doggy who likes to have his back scratched, this will make your muchacho very happy!
Kissing 101: Let the Body be as Enticing
As your hands do some exploring, you can continue to excite your lover with all sorts of soft, sensual contact by grazing the side of your partner’s mouth with yours. Don’t be afraid to mix it up a little. It doesn’t matter what you are doing, as long as you are doing something!
Remember, an unforgettable kiss can be your best accessory! To be in vogue, here are four “must have” sexy smooches for your repertoire – from lusty and passionate to sweet and loving, these will be sure to turn up the heat on your next date.
Top Kissing Technique: “Happy Hello”
This “greet when you meet” kiss is enthusiastic, warm, and supple, all while lingering just long enough. No matter how busy your day has been, always take a moment for the “Happy Hello.”
Top Kissing Technique: “Sultry So-Long”
If the “Happy Hello” is a suggestive greeting, this signals what your date is in for later! Apply a little urgent pressure to his/her lips, and use your tongue to lightly trace the mouth.
Top Kissing Technique: “Dirty Dancer”
Ladies, this is the kind of kissing that can lead to other things. Wrap your arms around his waist, and come in for a succulent kiss, but before your lips meet in deep juiciness, do a little bump ‘n’ grind with the hips. Throw back your head, and pull away for a moment to increase his excitement. He’ll never say no to dancing with you!
Top Kissing Technique: “Purring Pussycat”
On the other end of the sexy diva mode is itty-bitty kitty kissing. This is the tender, gentle, intimate kissing when all snuggled in bed or curled up on the couch. Kiss him softly on his cheeks, neck and forehead, and then sensually and slowly on his lips. Whisper sweet suggestive thoughts in his ear, and relish the warmth.
Happy puckering this weekend!
