I love to kiss. Oh, how I love to kiss. There are so many different ways, shapes, and ideas for kissing - you could spend a lifetime exploring and perfecting. 
For some people, kissing is only a peck or a brush of lips across the cheek. Blech. That’s sooooo boring. Of course, many of these non-kissers are a bit weird about germs, as in “do not want to share yours”. 
There are nibbling kisses, sucking kisses, teasing kisses, tongue kisses, and the list goes on… My favorite is probably the teasing kiss - a light brush of the lips with perhaps a lap of the tongue. 
I found a manual of kissing for young people (I think) - was an interesting read The Art of Kissing. Another good site is The Lost Art of Kissing.
She brings up the point that kissing reminds of being young. Remember that first kiss? The zing, the rush of feeling, the excitement? Kissing can help you rediscover a level of arousal that may have been dormant.
My characters love to kiss too and I have to say, it’s hard to get the movement just right when you’re writing a kiss. I just wrote a scene where two people got married. The wedding wasn’t exactly traditional and neither was the kiss. They did get a little carried away though. *snicker*
How about you, what’s your favorite kiss?
