Brits are known for our stiff upper lips, however when it comes to showing adoration for our loved ones, we break this preconception as almost 1 in 10 of us (9%) find the time to pucker up with our partner more than 10 times a day, according to a poll by non-surgical lip plumping brand Plump It!
When asked how often we indulge in a bit of "PDA" with our significant other, over 40% of Brits revealed they lock lips with their partner up to five times a day, favouring a peck on the lips (62%) over a full-on snogging session (3%). However, not all of us are so loved up. Some of us have lost that loving feeling as 6% claim they can't remember the last time they kissed their partner.
