Whether or not you already have a valentine this holiday, you've got to be prepared for any kisses coming your way. This means you've got to have a smooth, soft and kissable pucker not matter the time or day!

Getting that perfect pout is easy with these simple steps and products you'll need to get your smoocher on!

Step 1: Exfoliate

First things first: scrub and exfoliate your lips to remove any dead and peeling skin. (Hint: try our DIY lip scrub here). Use your fingers or an old toothbrush with the scrub when applying the product and rub gently in a circular pattern.

Prods to Try:
1. Elizabeth Grant: The Socializer Can You Keep A Secret? Lip Exfoiliator and Conditioning Balm (C$38.00)
2. Clarins Extra-Firming Lip & Contour Gentle Exfoliator (C$31.00)
3. Fresh Brown Sugar Lip Polish (US$22.50)
4. Bite Fruit Lip Scrub (US$18.00)
5. Lush Lip Scrub (C$8.00)

Step 2: Moisturize

After the scrub, use a lip balm to seal in your lip's natural moisture. This is especially important overnight!

Prods to Try:
1. Eos Organic Sphere Lip Balm (US$3.00)
2. Korres Lip Butter (US$9.00)
3. Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm (C$4.00)
4. Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Balm (C$5.99)
5. The Body Shop Born Lippy Lip Balm (C$6.00)

Step 3: Colour and Gloss

Because lipsticks can be drying, we suggest applying over balm or choose a lipstick with extra moisturizing ingredients.

Prods to Try:
1. Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter (C$8.00)
2. Cargo Lip Gloss Quad (US$24.00)
3. Principessa Pinkini Lip Gloss (C$16.00)
4. Soap & Glory Super Colour Sexy Mother Pucker Plumping Gloss (C$15.00)
5. NYX Roundcase Lipstick (C$4.99)

Want to wear a really bold lip? You know how difficult it can be to find the perfect shade for your skin tone, so check out our experiments with tangerine and pink lipsticks.

The Extras

We're signing off with a few more product junkie favourites to complete your lip primping session...

Prods to Try:
1. Beauty So Clean Sanitizing Wipes (US$24.00)
2. E.L.F. Studio Make Up Lock & Seal (US$3.00)
3. MAC Prep + Prime Lip (C$18.00)
4. MAC Lip Erase (C$22.50)
5. Bliss Fabulips (US$45.00)
