Let’s Rank 20 Kisses That Totally Rock (And Some Are Just Weird)

Ever had someone sneak up and kiss your shoulder? That’s this one - a quiet, super sensual move that feels like a little secret between two people. Not just for lovers, it’s like the unexpected hello we all secretly love. Bonus fun fact: Amy Adams got a surprise shoulder kiss from Cate Blanchett at a fancy event. Boss move.

This one’s the showstopper: lips open, tongues maybe dancing, and serious passion flowing. It’s called French, but the French just call it "the lover’s kiss" - romantic and scandal-free. Fun note: Audrey Hepburn rocked this move in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, making it forever iconic.

Short, sweet, and perfect for "I like you" or "bye for now," the quick peck is like the Swiss Army knife of kisses. Not messy, not dramatic, just a little moment of warmth. Think Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson’s goodbye in Lost in Translation - subtle but packed with feels.

Instead of lips, this one’s all about noses bumping and rubbing - super cute, low-key, and a bit quirky. It’s inspired by Inuit traditions but we kinda got it a bit mixed up (they actually press noses to cheeks!). Either way, it’s a playful way to show you care without locking lips. Remember that sweet moment in Elf? Yep, that’s the vibe.

Soft, teasing, and a little bit naughty, earlobe kisses get the heart racing without needing words. Sometimes gentle, sometimes with a playful bite, it’s like whispering sweet nothings, but with your mouth. Movie fans know all about this one - from Mr. and Mrs. Smith’s flirt fights to swoony rom-com moments.

When someone kisses your forehead, it says "I’ve got your back" without saying a word. Old-school and timeless, it’s been around since ancient Greece and still delivers major warm fuzzies today. Whether it’s parents, friends, or lovers, this kiss is pure affection and comfort. And yep, Titanic didn’t miss this sweet move!

Neck kisses on steroids! The vampire kiss adds a bite that’s as sexy as it sounds. Thanks to Twilight and The Vampire Diaries, it’s now a symbol of dangerous passion, forbidden love, and drama (the best kind). Whether it leaves a mark or just a memory, this one’s definitely got bite.

The classic lip kiss is the OG love sign. From ancient carvings to your favorite rom-coms, kissing on the lips is timeless. Public or private, this is the go-to for lovebirds everywhere. And fun trivia: the first-ever movie kiss was filmed way back in 1896. Talk about old school romance!

One of the most chill and friendly kisses out there, the cheek kiss says "Hey, I like you!" without any pressure. Depending on where you’re from, it might come with one, two, or even three pecks. It’s the perfect mix of hello and hug, and world leaders even use it to keep things friendly (who knew diplomacy was so kissy?).

Take a moment to imagine a knight in shining armor kissing your hand - that’s this kiss! Fancy, respectful, and maybe a little bit flirty. It’s both a royal greeting and a lover’s move, making it perfect for all kinds of special moments. You’ve probably seen it in movies like The Godfather or The Princess Bride, adding instant class.

Soft and protective, the angel kiss lands gently on eyelids or near eyes, like a tiny hug from the lips. It’s named after baby birthmarks thought to be blessings from angels, so it’s basically the kiss version of a warm blanket. Seen in cozy moments and movies like The Holiday, it's the perfect mix of cute and caring.

Got a bit of a mischievous streak? This kiss is where passion meets playtime, with one partner giving the other’s lip a little nibble. It’s flirty, fun, and sometimes downright steamy. Think Basic Instinct vibes - serious but with a cheeky grin.

Sometimes words are too much, so you blow a kiss! Press your fingers to your lips and send that smooch flying through the air - no actual contact needed. It’s flirty, fun, and a little old-school (ancient Greeks did it first!). Marilyn Monroe made it famous, making it forever glamorous.

This one’s a tongue party for those who like it quirky and quick. It mimics a lizard’s flicky tongue - fast, teasing, and full of personality. Mostly a modern invention, it pops up in funny moments like Zoolander’s over-the-top kissing scenes. Great for laughs or when you want to keep things light and flirty.

Not rubbing, just a gentle kiss right on the tip of the nose. It’s sweet, funny, and a little less intense than a lip kiss. Great for when you want to say "I adore you" without full-on smooching. It even made an appearance in La La Land, showing off its quiet charm.

Ever had your eyelashes flutter against someone’s skin? That’s this delicate fluttery kiss, named after butterfly wings because, well, it feels just like them. It’s sweet and playful - a perfect way to say “I care” with zero pressure. Bonus: it’s so special it even inspired a famous song!

No touching, just a cute little "mwah" in the air near someone’s cheek. Born in high society because touching was sometimes a no-no, today it’s everywhere - at brunch, on the red carpet, or just to add flair to your hugs. Channel your inner socialite like in Sex and the City and toss those playful kisses around!

This one’s a total mood: lips planted on the tummy, whether for baby bump love or just goofy, playful affection. It’s sweet, sometimes funny, and has a long history tied to life and family. Plus, it’s the kind of kiss that makes you laugh and feel all warm inside - Naomi and Ryan sure know how to do it in The Notebook.

This kiss flips the romance game on its head - literally! Tobey Maguire’s upside-down lip-lock with Kirsten Dunst in Spider-Man made it legendary. It’s playful, slightly ridiculous, and perfectly unforgettable - basically a kiss with superpowers. Since then, everyone’s been trying to nail this pose at weddings and parties. Good luck!

Looking for a nurturing kiss? This one is like a hug you can feel on your scalp. It says "I’m here for you" with calm vibes and infinite love. Seen in movies and used by parents, lovers, and pals alike, it’s a simple but deep way to show you care. Ryan Gosling knows how to hit those feels in Blue Valentine.
