Fancy a Shift? It’s International Kissing Day!

Ladies, you might want to rock your favourite lip stick today because it is International Kissing Day (yes, really, it’s a thing).

Every single year on July 6, people across the world enjoy the humble art of getting the shift, playing tonsil tennis, wearing the face off…well…you get the idea.

In celebration of this glorious holiday, we’ve picked five of the best movie kisses ever – you know the ones that are so romantic, so lovely, that they make you look at your boyfriend with disdain and go “Would YOU ever do anything like that for me?!” You know the ones we’re talking about.

Right ladies, pucker up…

(Whether you’re single or attached today, don’t forget to give someone special a little peck on the cheek – let’s spread the love!)

The Spiderman Kiss: He’s hanging upside down, in the lashing rain. She’s probably secretly raging about the fact that her hair is getting ruined but either way, love saves the day and they have one of the greatest movie kisses of all time. D’awww.

The Bridget Jones Kiss: Snow makes everything more romantic – even standing in the middle of the street in your granny pants and a ratty old cardigan. “Nice boys don’t kiss like that,” she says. Colin Firth wins our hearts with the epic response: “Oh, yes they f**king do!” Hell to the yes! Unfortunately we couldn't find a video of this epic smooch, but you're probably already familiar with it.

The Romeo and Juliet Kiss: Is there a greater love story than Romeo and Juliet? We don’t think so. We absolutely love this scene from Baz Luhrmann’s film when Leo lobs the gob at Claire Danes. So romantic!

The Notebook Kiss: Noah and Ali are just one of those movie couples that you can’t forget. We still get a bit weepy-eyed watching this. “I wrote you 365 letters…I wrote you every day for a year!” The passion, the love, the dedication – swoon!

The Harry Potter Kiss: Ron and Hermione – we all saw it coming for AGES, so naturally, the world rejoiced when they finally locked lips and had a passionate kiss in the final Harry Potter film. Not so annoying now, is she Ron?
