So I wen't to a headshop and he gave me a free 15ml bottle of a liquid called U-NiC since I was buying a bunch of stuff and looked at it, I can't seem to find the website that would have an ingredient list(Like to check for bad ingredients).

It is made in USA which is a positive I am thinking?(Only heard of deadly stuff coming out of China, not that its all like that I am sure...).

What deadly stuff from China have you heard about?

Just a couple incidents where bad ingredients were used, maybe deadly was the wrong term, I remember reading about popcorn lung and high formaldehyde levels and such in certain Chinese ones...

Anyways just wanted to make sure this liquid checked out but when I google it all I get is a website with no liquids or this image in the photo section of google:

Yes, there is some (not all) potentially bad stuff coming out of China.

U-NiC itself will almost certainly be selling Chinese liquid. One visit to their website tells me everything I need to know.

Yeah, thats some crazy false advertising, thank you though. :)

Bummer, smells like those 5-10 cent blue icy bars....

Well, I could be wrong, but if I saw that website in the UK, there would be alarm bells blowing my ears off. Total junk....

I can't see a junk wholesaler getting a good US company to make their juice..... some "boyz" down in the suburbs of somewhere, maybe. A bit like Jesse and Walt. :)

Sigh....

"Popcorn Lung" relates to diaetyl, which was found in many e-liquids (adds a "buttery" or "creamy" taste). Was present in many many US-made liquids, and is still present in some.

The test which found "formaldehyde" was flawed in many ways:
a) They didn't find formaldehyde
b) They found formaldehyde-releasing chemicals, but only at power levels nobody would vape at (seriously burned juice)
c) This would be true regardless of the e-liquid vendor, or the quality of the e-liquid; it comes from heating PG to high temperatures.

I know lots of people bash "chinese juices" but they actually make some very good ones, and I think criticisms should be based on fact and not just people's opinions.

If this is the people you mean - u-niccigs.com - there's a website with no people's name attached, no address, no phone number, and not even an email address, just a contact form.

They do say the site is under construction, so maybe these things will appear, but on present evidence I wouldn't trust them.

I think thats them, will send them an email thanks! If anything just keep this in a draw until the website is filled out with info.

No need to sigh ;), all cleared up, thanks!

I see, yeah I sorta forget what I read, I just got some liquids from VelvetCloud, ordered one bottle of Stawb-Gawb and its my first juice, its sorta weak tasting, they also sent a free 15ml bottle of Nightshift which is a tad better tasting...maybe it needs to steep?
