Candy'Vap 100 ml - Cebueno

An e-liquid (or electronic cigarette liquid) is the product that produces vapour when heated by an e-cigarette coil. Unlike traditional cigarettes, there is no combustion. E-liquid consists of a base (propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine), flavourings and, optionally, nicotine. It determines the flavour, throat hit, vapour production and overall vaping experience.

An e-liquid generally contains four ingredients:

• propylene glycol (PG), which carries the flavourings, enhances the throat hit and provides a sensation similar to smoking a cigarette;
• vegetable glycerine (VG), responsible for the vapour and the density of the cloud;
• flavourings, which provide the flavour (fruit, mint, classic tobacco, dessert, ice…);
• nicotine, which is optional and helps vapers who are quitting manage cravings.

Some formulas also use alternative vegetable-based ingredients (Végétol) for a gentler vape.

An e-liquid with nicotine is intended for vapers who want to replace conventional cigarettes. Nicotine helps provide a sense of satisfaction and reduce cravings. Nicotine-free e-liquids are used either towards the end of the quitting process or simply for the enjoyment of vaping, although vaping is not recommended if you do not smoke. Choosing the right nicotine strength is essential to avoid an unpleasant experience, such as irritation or cravings. The right strength depends on how many cigarettes you used to smoke. A light smoker will not have the same needs as a heavy smoker. Too little nicotine can lead to frustration and relapse, while too much can cause throat discomfort. The aim is to find a balance between throat hit, sensation and vaping comfort, adjusting the strength gradually if necessary. A low strength of 0, 3 or 6 mg/ml of nicotine is generally recommended for light or occasional smokers (fewer than 7 cigarettes a day), and a high strength of 20 mg/ml nicotine salt for heavy smokers (a pack of cigarettes or more). However, the strength can be adjusted to suit your e-cigarette and the way you vape.

Nicotine salt is a more stable form of nicotine that is gentler to inhale. It is absorbed quickly and produces a less harsh throat hit, even at high strengths. Nicotine salt e-liquids are particularly suitable for new vapers, former heavy smokers and low-power MTL kits. Nicotine salts come in different strengths. The best-known and most effective is 20 mg/ml, which is well suited to heavy smokers. But 10 mg/ml may also suit a regular or occasional smoker.

A nicotine booster is a bottle of concentrated nicotine designed to be added to a large-format e-liquid. It lets you adjust the final nicotine strength according to how much you add. Flexible and economical, this option lets you bring your large-format e-liquid to a nicotine strength of 3 or 6 mg/ml. For a 50 ml e-liquid, adding one nicotine booster gives you 3 mg/ml; two boosters bring it to 6 mg/ml.

The propylene glycol to vegetable glycerine ratio has a significant effect on the vape.

• An e-liquid high in propylene glycol, or PG (70/30, 80/20), favours throat hit, distinct flavours and discreet vaping. The e-liquid is thin and should only be used with tight-draw MTL devices to avoid leaks.
• An e-liquid high in vegetable glycerine, or VG (30/70), produces more vapour and bigger clouds, with a smoother, sweeter sensation. This thicker e-liquid is compatible with sub-ohm or shisha-style e-cigarettes, which produce large clouds of vapour at high power.

Your choice therefore depends on the power and compatibility of your e-cigarette. If in doubt, the most common ratio is 50/50 PG/VG. This balanced ratio is versatile and can be used with MTL, RDL and lower-powered DTL e-cigarettes (at around 15 to 40 watts).

Vegetable-based or Végétol e-liquids replace traditional propylene glycol. They are often gentler on the throat, better tolerated by some vapers who are sensitive to PG, and provide a smoother vape without compromising on flavour. However, they should be used for MTL vaping at low power (a minimum of 30 watts) to avoid leaks and preserve product quality.

Yes, CBD e-liquids are designed for vaping and generally contain no nicotine. They offer a different experience focused on relaxation, without an addictive effect. They should be used at a moderate power setting to preserve product quality. A tight-draw MTL e-cigarette is preferable for these e-liquids.

E-liquids are considered a much healthier alternative to smoking tobacco. They are formulated with ingredients certified as posing no health risks, unlike the 7,000 harmful substances in traditional cigarettes. Nevertheless, to choose a safe e-liquid, you should take a few precautions, such as buying from a recognised retailer like Le Vapoteur Discount, checking the ingredients and origin, and favouring reputable, regulated brands.

An e-liquid made in France meets strict requirements and European directives on traceability, testing and safety. French and European brands generally have their own laboratories to develop their e-liquid formulas and are required to have those formulas assessed by an independent laboratory before they go on the market, offering consumers a mark of quality and transparency. These steps help ensure that e-liquids are safe for vapers. French and European quality standards prohibit undesirable substances and provide a safer framework for vaping.

To keep your e-liquid for as long as possible and preserve its quality, flavour and colour, store it in its original bottle, ideally away from light, heat and air. Despite these precautions, the e-liquid may turn slightly brown. This colour is due to nicotine oxidation and may also depend on the flavouring used in the e-liquid; it is harmless and the liquid remains suitable for use. We generally advise against leaving the same e-liquid in your clearomiser or pod cartridge for more than 5 days if you are not using it, to avoid leaks and excessive oxidation.

The best-before date (known in French as DLUO or DDM) is a guideline. Once this date has passed, an e-liquid may lose some of its flavour and change in appearance (colour or consistency). An e-liquid fresh from the factory will have a best-before period of around 2 years. Even after this date, the e-liquid remains suitable for vaping and will not be harmful to health.
