Pretty much every single scene Magnus and Alec share is perfect. I mean, this is Malec we’re talking about, how could it not be?
Narrowing down Magnus and Alecs’ kisses to just a few of our favorites was no easy task. Like many people pointed out, are there any Malec kisses we don’t love?

But with help from some dedicated Shadowhunters fans, we were able to do it.
Therefore, we’d like to give a special shoutout to the Malec fandom for helping us make this slideshow. We couldn’t have done it alone!
In no particular order, we put together a list of the top 9 Malec kisses according to Twitter!
Be sure to get your fill of Malec kisses when you watch Shadowhunters online.
The groundbreaking kiss that started it all on 1×12 “Malec” On Shadowhunters Season 1 Episode 12 Alec leaving the altar to walk down the aisle and make out with Magnus in front of everyone was and will always be the most iconic scene in Shadowhunters history.
The first official date kiss on 2×06 “Iron Sisters” This was the sweetest and purest kiss found on Shadowhunters Season 2 Episode 6. After getting into a little disagreement over how many people they’ve both been with (or haven’t been with) over the years, they decided the only thing that matters is that they’re with each other now.
The “I love you” kiss on 2×10 “By the Light of Dawn” Poor Alec had no idea if his boyfriend was alive or dead on Shadowhunters Season 2 Episode 10. His terror and sudden relief upon finding Magnus was clear as day in his face and body language. Alec just couldn’t hold that “I love you,” in any longer.
The “come back to me” kiss on 3×10 “Erchomai” This was probably the most heartbreaking kiss in existence (at least on Shadowhunters Season 3 Episode 10!). Although they were optimistic, neither Magnus nor Alec was sure if they’d see the other again. For all they knew, this could have been a goodbye.
The aesthetically pleasing kiss on 2×15 “A Problem of Memory” All soulmates have that silhouetted kiss with light streaming through in the background. It was only fitting, as seen here in this kiss from Shadowhunters Season 2 Episode 15.
The failed training session kiss on 3×12 “Original Sin” This training session on Shadowhunters Season 3 Episode 12 didn’t go as planned. Hand to hand combat that requires you to get up close and personal with your super hot boyfriend may not be the most productive idea in the world.
The adorable cheek kiss on 3×11 “Lost Souls” Absolutely. Precious. That’s it. There’s nothing else to say. Other than that you can find this one on Shadowhunters Season 3 Episode 11.
The “I have to kiss my boyfriend right now immediatly” kiss on 2×07 “How Are Thou Fallen” This looks like it fits one of those intense romance quotes where Magnus is the ocean and Alec’s desperate to drown. And hey, we’re not complaining about this awesome swak from Shadowhunters Season 2 Episode 7.
The softest “first time” kiss(es) on 2×18 “Awake, Arise, or Be Forever Fallen” We have no words for this kiss from Shadowhunters Season 2 Episode 19. The stumbling, the laughs, the tenderness, and the music all came together to create the softest moment in history.
