Kissing Experiment at Atlantic Station Jan. 29

Research shows that people are kissing less than ever and that 66 percent of women have avoided kissing a guy because he had facial hair. With Valentine’s Day coming up, Gillette is asking couples across America to help determine if stubble is the trouble.


Atlanta couples can participate in the kissing experiment on Tuesday, Jan. 29, from 4 to 10 pm at Atlantic Station to uncover which kiss is best: a kiss with stubble or smooth shaven skin.  Couples should arrive with stubble – first conducting an introductory interview, then kissing.  Men will then shave and the couple will kiss again.  A short follow-up survey will be conducted to determine which is truly more kissable.  Prizes will be awarded to all who pucker up, and the national results will be announced on Valentine’s Day.


Anyone unable to attend in-person can conduct the experiment online at kissandtellus.com. National results will be announced on Valentine’s Day.
