If your lips are prone to drying switch 100% VG!

[DrCupCake81]

I recently switched my ejuice to 100% VG because I got tired of my lips drying out from the pg. It was a 100% turn around. My lips are smooth again. I don't even need chapstick anymore before applying lipstick/gloss. I think the VG actually is keeping my lips moist. Which is pretty awesome since my lips dry easily.

What e-liquid, and what head are you using? Do you find you're getting enough flavor? Do you wind up having to thin it out a bit with water? Do you mind people who just throw lots of questions at you? ;-)

yep[ same here. I just went up to 50/50 and noticed an improvement on chapped lips. Of course the weather getting warmer did not hurt either

Hahaha no its ok. I don't mind. Right now I am trying Fuzion Vapor and killer juice. I'm into fruity flavors. Killer juice is so thick with the VG! I haven't tried water yet. The flavor isn't extremely strong or weak. I think its in between, With Killer Juice I bought the apple/strawberryflavor. With Fuzion Vapor I just got samples of Unicorn Blood, XTC, and Ectoplasm. I'm loving the Unicorn blood it reminds me of fruit punch. But thats just my opinion.

I think the thicker the juice the more pulls you have to take to get the vape you want.

The higher vg will not wick as well in some tanks resulting in reduced vapor.

That's true although many newer rtas wick max vg now just fine, just a matter of hitting the goldilocks zone with your cotton/rayon.

If the juice is too thick, you can thin it with a VERY little bit of distilled water. For a 50/50 consistency, you'll need to add something like 5-10% water to max vg.

The moisturizing bit makes sense, too. Pharmacies sell pure VG as a skin moisturizer.

Yeah, I use high VG juice now mostly because of the drying effects of PG. High PG also tends to give me stomach upset. The dry mouth was terrible at night. I would wake up with dry mouth and dry lips.

Never had this dry lips issue. Mainly because I drink enough water.

I've been waking up at night thirsty and feeling dried out....
This is how I feel

I find high vg is aggravating my seasonal allergy induced asthma now that spring is showing up. I need 50/50 primarily for the next few months.

I drink lots of water too. Have for years since I quit drinking beer. Drinking water didn't help. Changing to 80/20 VG/PG seems to help a lot.
