  • Touch your partner's love nub like you’re punching your PIN into an ATM and you'll get the wrong sort of withdrawal. Instead, tantalise her with kisses that initially avoid the breasts and genitals. Drive her wild with your special kissing sequence-feathery kisses on the neck, moving to the shoulder, then to the collar-bone area, following to small of the back, inner thigh and finally, hitting the mound between her legs.

  • Most men think cunnilingus is just foreplay. But you’re on the wrong track: most women think of dining at the Y as the best bit of the main course.

  • The kiss won't just help you score at night, but it can even help you win over your clients at business meetings. A study at Stranmillis University College in Belfast found that people who turned their heads to the right when kissing were more emotionally engaging than leftleaners. "By turning to the right, you reveal your left cheek which is controlled by the emotive right cerebral hemisphere," says researcher Dr Julian Greenwood

  • Brush your lips between her throat and chin. The skin is thinner where the body flexes, so the nerves and blood vessels are closer to the surface-that's why it's also a perfume point. You'll engage sensory receptors and trigger an emotional response.

  • "A woman's upper lip is served by different nerve branches to her lower lip," says Siski Green, author of How to Blow Her Mind In Bed. "Spend time licking, kissing or gently nibbling her upper lip, then move down below-no, not that far down-to ensure every nerve ending gets stimulated to the max."

  • Channel the Sherlock Holmes in you and detect when she wants you to move in. Wait for her lips to appear fuller. A slight blushing and widening of her lips shows sexual interest. She'll also start to size up your lips for a way to make a good mouth-match. So you'll see a slight head tilt.

  • Quit stressing over who goes first. When you're enjoying the activity, you forget who really started it. Plus, be the one to launch a few lusty mouth-to-mouth sessions and the physical charge will likely thrill him so much, he'll soon follow suit on his own.
