lock lips

Make out together

Lock lips is an informal, slightly playful way of saying kiss, typically suggesting a prolonged or passionate embrace rather than a quick peck.

The phrase evokes the image of two mouths pressed firmly together, as if locked in place.

The couple locked lips in the back row of the theater.

It often appears in gossip contexts or descriptions of public displays of affection.
