    Years of vaping-related acne vanishes after switching atomizers

    As with many others out there, I started getting the deep, nasty zits/cysts after I switched to vaping in 2010. I do remember getting them once in a great while when I smoked but nothing like vaping. The last few months have been the worst I've seen it, even getting more regular breakouts on...

    Still getting severe acne after two years of vaping

    No! Not my precious milk! :( It's worth a shot though, I'll stick to my almond milk for drinking and only use milk for my morning cereal. For the record, I scrub my entire body daily with one of those exfoliating bath sponge balls, and despite this, my skin becomes oily again within a...

    Still getting severe acne after two years of vaping

    Yes I smoked around 10-15 Marb Lights per day before I quit. I use 25 mg/ml in my juice. I initially tried to cut that in half to 12.5 mg/ml but just ended up using twice as much juice, so in essense my nicotine intake did not change, but my intake of PG and VG doubled. THAT is when I noticed my...

    Still getting severe acne after two years of vaping

    Willie, I quit smoking over two years ago, you'd think that any toxin flushing would be done by now. Like I said in my post Rosa, that visit has to wait, and so I am here looking for help in the interim. But I think you're right, that's probably my only real option here, unless someone else...

    Has anyone else had bad acne since vaping? It's not "quit zits"

    I'm glad to see I'm not alone. Your situation is about as close to mine as I've read so far (thanks goes to Darksyde for pointing me to your thread) I posted my story earlier today, take a look...

    Still getting severe acne after two years of vaping

    Thanks I hope it does too. It didn't flare up right away, it did take some time to get to the point I'm at now, which does corroborate with tons of other people's experiences. I really can't say that I"m seeing any improvement, it's as if nothing has changed. If it really was the PG, I wouldn't...

    Still getting severe acne after two years of vaping

    I switched to vaping in May 2010 and ever since then I've suffered from a pretty bad case of acne. It seems to get worse the more I vape, so I know it has to be something in the juice. The thing is, almost since the start I've been mixing my own juice, which has only ever contained VG and PG...

    My Atty Resurrection Method

    It's the flavorings and to a lesser extent the VG that can gunk up an atty. I've been using flavorless PG/VG juice for months and haven't had to clean an atty other than to get rid of a slight burning smell that can develop with LR attys if you hold down the button too long.

    Are there any eGo Mega kits, or is it better to buy the megas separately?

    OK, thanks. I thought I saw some eGo mega (non-LR) kits one time, but I can't find them now.

    Are there any eGo Mega kits, or is it better to buy the megas separately?

    I was approached today by an smoking buddy at work who quit smoking last year when I did, but she went the Chantix route. She started smoking again, and asked me if I could help her find a PV for her. I am a huge fan of the eGo with mega (LR) attys, and would like to set her up with this, but it...

    My Atty Resurrection Method

    You might be using a juice heavy in flavorings that are notorious for caking onto the heating element. No boiling or rinsing will remove this effectively, only a very hot heating element. It's actually quite amazing how much gunk can hide in there - as you run through burn cycles, you'll see a...

    I love vaping flavorless juice! Anyone else?

    Since I began mixing my own juice I have found that I actually like the taste without having to add any flavorings. I mix a 25mg/ml solution with 75% PG and 25% VG. The concentrated (100mg/ml PG) juice has a slight brown tinge to it, which I'm guessing is what is giving me a very slight tobacco...

    Should we keep this group going?

    The only stores I know of that carry any e-cig stuff in Beaverton are: The Hot Box, which sells overpriced 5ml bottles of juice and Blu Cig refills Tony's Smoke Shop, which sells an e-cig made by Randy's. It's been a few months since I was in either place looking for e-cig stuff, so they...

    clear bottles

    Yeah, I guess I was looking at your post about plastic bottles, and to be honest I want some smaller bottles too. I have some glass bottles and to be honest they're more of a pain without drip tips (and the ability to be squeezed) than they're really worth. I was hoping to get a mix of 3, 6...

    Attention eGo Mega Atty & 2ml Cart users!! Need ur help!

    I'd like to see a mod that uses a mega atty. They're so much better than smaller attys IMO. I've been using eGo/mega attys exclusively since August and love how it vapes mild and close to the juice's flavor. I can't stand the taste of a 510 atty anymore. These babies just keep on vapin' too...

    My Atty Resurrection Method

    I've tried the highping clean a few times, and although it does work at removing buildup on the coils, I've also noticed that after the rejuvenated attys completely die and I take them apart to look at them, the coil fibers are next to gone. Since I first noticed this, I took more care not to...
