What is E-Liquid?
E-liquid is the flavoured liquid that is added to the inside of an e-cigarette. When your vape kit is heated, this liquid will soak into the coil and produce the vapour that you inhale, so it’s a core component of any vape kit. You’ll also sometimes hear this referred to as vape juice.
E-liquids are made up of three main ingredients including nicotine, propylene glycol (PG) and vegetable glycerin (VG). You will also have the choice of many different flavours to suit your taste and fulfil your vaping needs.
PG & VG
Choosing the right nicotine strength for you is an important part of vaping and getting it right can make your experience much smoother. Most vapers will pick an e-liquid with nicotine in it, however, there are 0mg options for those who would prefer to go without.
What are the Different Types of E-Liquid?
All e-liquid will have a ratio of PG to VG. These base liquids are what deliver the nicotine and produce the vapour you inhale. The ratio used affects the throat hit, amount of cloud and strength of flavour. so, it's worth figuring out the ratio you want.
Nic Salt
Nic salt e-liquids are similar to regular 10ml E-liquids, however, they are distinctive in that they mimic the natural salts found in the tobacco leaf and contain higher concentrations of nicotine that provide a smoother throat hit such as VLTZ E-liquid.
Shortfill
Shortfills come in larger bottles with space to add a nicotine shot. The sizes range from 50ml to 150ml and are considered much better value than the regular 10ml. The high VG ratio means this juice is best for sub ohm vaping.
50/50 E-liquid
50/50 e-liquid contains an equal amount of PG and VG making it suitable for any type of vaper. These e-liquids are perfect for ex-smokers who are looking to begin their journey into vaping with a variety of flavours and strengths.
E-liquid Strengths
The nicotine strength you use should align with your personal preferences and, for those trying to quit smoking, this will usually depend on your history with cigarettes. Heavier smokers should start off with 18-20mg and slowly reduce this. Light smokers, however, should use lower strengths such as 0-3mg to satisfy their cravings.

What is the best nicotine strength for new vapers?
New vapers in particular need to pay attention to the nicotine strength of their e-liquid. If it’s too low you may still have a craving, but too much could leave you feeling sick. As a general rule, the amount you smoked previously can indicate which nicotine strength you should go for.
Direct to lung or mouth to lung vaping
Direct to lung (DL) is where vapour is inhaled directly to the lungs, essentially by taking a big breath. Mouth to lung is closer to traditional smoking, where you hold the vapour in your mouth for a short space of time before inhaling it into the lungs. Different e-liquids are better suited to each of these styles.
What E-liquid Is Best For Mouth To Lung Vaping?
The best e-liquid for mouth-to-lung vaping is 50/50 or a high PG vape juice that includes nic salts, however, most e-liquids would also be suitable for MTL vaping. For specific examples and more information, you can check out our guide to the best mouth to lung e-liquid.

E-liquid FAQs
How Long Should 10ml E-liquid Last?
Most vapers will use a full 10ml bottle of e-liquid in 2-3 days. This does depend on how often they vape. Sub ohm vapers will go through much more e-liquid and in some cases need more than 1 bottle for a full day. Whereas, MTL vapers can last multiple days with the same amount.
It also depends on the nicotine strength. Someone using a low strength vape juice will need to use more to get the same amount of nicotine as a high strength e-liquid.
Which vape juice flavours are the best?
There’s a great number of flavours to choose from, but it all comes down to personal taste. Vape juice comes in different flavour profiles including dessert, menthol or fruit.
