Bought VG still missing some ingredient

[evapuser]

[EDMONTON] I bought a Vegetable Glycerine 473ml CAD$13.91 from a health store. Not sure if it is going to work as a mixer of eliquid.
What's shows in the label is:
Condition: Rough skin, simple cosmetic applications.
Suggested Use: For soft, luxurious skin simply massage a few drops of 100% Pure Vegetable Glycerine on the desired area as needed. Discontinue to use if redness or irritation occurs.
*The VG contained in this product is considered food grade.

Liquid appearance are very thick and it is clear.

I need a USP approved "food grade" PG, Nicotine(optional) and some flavoring. And some storage bottles (hopefully can find it in dollarstore).

If anyone knows where to get these items, it will be so much appreciated.

I made like 5 phone calls to health specialist and pharmacy. They have no clue what the heck is PG.

Hit up the local pharmacies. Picked up pg here for $8 for 500ml. They had to order it in but it got there the next day. If they don't know what pg is I would be concerned. They use it for mixing some medications (ones that do not combine with water)

Nic and flavorings you will most likely need to order online.

Nicotine I would reccomend getting from RTS Vapes. They take some extra special steps for us Canadians. Flavourings are available at many Canadian E-cig vendors, most notably Happy Vaper, who has a crapton. Some can also be purchased locally. (i.e. LorAnn's can often be found in Bulk Barns, though selection is often limited and you have to be mindful of which ones are suitable for vaping.)

That really ...... me off... They wouldn't sell it to personal use. WTF!!! Is this thing really dangerous or what?

Yes, nicotine will be my last approach!!!

Tell them you (or your wife, say) want to use it to make candles. Some pharmacists are strangely reticent to sell you PG.

All pharmacies have access to PG. Take a soap recipe in and tell them it's for make non allergenic soap. Approx. $8 for 500 ml. When wife went in to order mine she said there were 10 bottles of it sitting there ready for pickup...lottsa vapers out there
Good Luck.

Doh! Soap. That was it. Not candles. I dunno why I thought of candles, I knew it was some craft thing anyway.

Soap. Tell them you're making soap.

The VG is the right kind.

For PG - do you have a tractor supply store, feed & seed store, farmer's supply, I don't know what you would call it in Canada. You could pick up a gallon there, it is used for cows for some reason. You don't need a gallon, but it is relatively inexpensive. If they have smaller sizes, you might want to go smaller.

Research this well before buying and mixing. You can buy some very high concentrations that are dangerous.

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

I agree and to start off maybe buy the EXACT Flavorless Nic level juice that's needed IMO

I'd rather go one step up at minimum, since you still need to add flavouring which will dilute it. And you'll probably want to mix some VG with it (if it's PG-based) for more vapor production.

I'd maybe start with 36mg and dilute to the desired strength level with PG/VG and flavouring.

You're absolutely right and thanks for correcting that. Multi tasking is not my forte

You guys are genius!!! I will ask my gf help me out with this or maybe I can do it myself. Anyway, I will get non allergenic soap recipe first.

I just bought a Lorann Amaretto flavor oil, 3.7ml, Loretta Pure Almond Extract and Pure mint and peppermint extract 100ml for both. Can't wait to try it out. Even though it will be zero nicotine and maybe no TH. But I think its a good start.

Thank you guys!!!!

You may want to also double check which flavors are unvapable. Not all flavorings are fine to put in your lungs.

I believe there is a thread about just such a thing.

You are right Concat. I ordered a bunch of liquid from China one of them is 30ml, 99.9% Nicotine level. It's lethal, but somewhat excited when I ordering it. Unfortunately Canadian Customs ceased my shipment last month. I contact the office but the shipment still under "investigation", which has to wait for another 30 days before it is confirm how to handle my package.

In Canada and U.S. I don't think they carry any nicotine over 60mg nicotine level.

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

Sure they do.

You said the pharmacist didn't know what PG was... did you ask for PG or propylene glycol? I think only vapers refer to it as PG!
