I am currently making my own juices and loving the flavour!! Only problem is they are slightly dry what I inhale - any advice?

I've seen mention of something you can add to make your DIY taste juicier. You might try asking in this forum.
DIY E-Liquid
What foggy said... it probably should go in the DIY section....
taste:
Usually adding some Ethyl Malitol (sweetener) tends to help a bit. I personally like to add some Vanilla. The Cotton Candy flavor is usually Ethyl Malitol.... yes, this will make it sweeter.
Actual Dryness:
Most of the time, the dryness people are talking about is just the flavor. But sometimes people don't want a dry feel to it. sometimes adding a few drops of distilled water helps with that, but it will cut down on the vapor production.

VG sucks moisture, so if you're another that goes for high VG due to the fad, just balance more PG into your mix.
Some add more flavouring without understanding that flavours are usually mixed in PG, so they're simply adding more PG as they add more flavour.
And as someone else stated, some add some distilled water (just a drop or two) to their mix, but note that depending on your tank, this might make it a bit runny and might leak.

Welcome and glad you joined.
EM is also known as Cotton Candy = Ethyl Maltol(10%) in solution.
More bittersweet than sweet Not a normal sweetener. Brings richness and moistness to the table and only enhances the sweetness all ready present. I like to use 0.2 to 0.5 %. EM can mute flavor in higher percentages.

Welcome to ECF sanriodia! I usually add a little, .5 - 1% Sweetner (TFA) or Cactus (Inawera) to moisten the mouth feel of dry tasting juice mixes. YMMV. Good luck on your journey... 
I second that, a little more PG brings a juicier vape.
Another trick is to try a slightly more restrictive drip tip. You'd be amazed how much effect a drip tip has on your vape. I find the more open, the more dry, but if you go too small, you get excess condensation in your tank(I assume it's the same with drippers but I haven't dripped regularly in 5 years).
