The word philtrum has 2 main meanings:
1: noun. The little groove between the bottom of your nose and your top lip. I have no clue what it is there for, but now you know what it is called.
2: verb. The art of performing oral sex while shaving. This originated because some kid at my school with a dirty mind thought it was 'full trim'. The term has since caught on and is now widely recognised.
1: You:"hi Steph! How you been?
Steph:"philtrum" *pokes your philtrum. walks away*
2: You:"hey sweety!"
Boyfriend:"her my giiiirl. Guess what I learnttoday?"
You:"what?"
Boyfriend:"how to philtrum"
when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.
This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"
FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
