Viewing corners

Love may be blind, but it sure has a strong sense of smell.

As Cherie Byrd, founder of Seattle’s Kissing school, pointed out, bad breathe is a factor that can derail a kiss and stop a relationship from being taken to the next level. This means that no matter how romantic the setting is, it still wouldn’t be perfect date if it won’t end with a fresh kiss.

So, to ensure that many kisses and wistful laden smiles will be exchanged between you and your partner, better have all these essentials in your bag:

1. Toothpaste and brush. Do I need to say why?

2. Bottled water. Water helps keep odor-causing bacteria from forming in your mouth. So, keep yourself hydrated during the day by drinking water regularly.

3. Dental floss. While brushing, we still miss 35% of the bacteria and food particles in our mouth. Flossing helps get rid of these particles to effectively keep odor-causing bacteria minimal.

4. Apples. Aside from being perfect remedy for quick pangs of hunger, apples can also stimulate the production of saliva and thus, prevent odor from forming in your mouth.

So, to make your special someone feel extra-loved, remember that the best kisses should be the sweetest, cleanest and freshest ones.
