I stared out on 80/20 pg/vg and found it really dryed my mouth out a lot and was too harsh for me.
Now i vape 100% vg and it's much better for me. My mouth doesn't dry out and it's a much smoother vape.

The differences are vg based liquids produce more vapor compared to pg based, flavour of the liquid is in general is a little less pronounced than in pg based but the smell is stronger. VG liquids are also much thicker than pg based so wicking can be an issue if you don't have a build that can cope with thicker liquid.

As for side effects most people find they have less from vg than pg. Poeple can have an allergy to pg or vg but it is far more common with pg.

I'm vaping Royal Double Jeopardy 30/70 pg/vg and makes my mouth,lips and throat dry. My water intake is not a problem. So i'm guessing this might be PG and also i started having trouble breathing after vaping for bit. My set up is a matrix sub ohm and battery. I just bought it yesterday too. Started vaping again after a year.

I just ordered some velvet cloud ejuice too. This is my last attempt into vaping and if there are more complications, I'm gonna have to give it all up. =(

I smoke 0 nics btw since I've been off analogs for a while now.

I started with 50/50 and slowly went more VG. I didn't have reactions to either I just found I liked the clouds and didn't mind the small drop in flavor.

Just make sure your tank or build can handle the thickness. Some tanks won't wick fast enough with Max vg and will give you dry hits.
I envy you for not having any reactions at all whatsoever! =(

I started 100pg from the local hess station it wasnt to good. Then i went 50/50 that was much better but still after awhile i found wanted more clouds. Now i settled in on 80vg to max vg. I prefer the 80 as its better in my tanks and drip the max vg but not very often as im always out and about. I save dripping for night time when i can sit with my stuff next to me. I just had a bit of drymouth other than that cant say it was a drastic change.

Does it hurt your lungs when you vape since you get more clouds out of it?

Started out at different blends based on what a particular B&M had. Anywhere from 70pg/30 to 40pg/60. The higher the pg content the harsher it was to my throat. I always coughed, had a dry, sore throat, and got bad headaches. At first, I thought I just needed to get used to it. Or that my nic was too high. Then I found out that higher vg had less of a throat hit. The higher up I went the less symptoms I had. So now I realize that I'm sensitive to pg. Max and 100%vg is all I vape.

I remember the first time I vaped, It was amazing. no symptoms or side effects whatsoever then my vape broke. Stopped for two weeks then bought another one and five pawns as my juice. I was excited but when i vaped it, it was so harsh that i didnt want it anymore. It was weird. maybe the first time I vaped it was max vg and I've been trying to capture that moment ever since. hopefully velvet cloud solves the issue!

I started with a 50/50 blend but the throat hit was to much for me, did some research and lowered Nicotine, my throat was still almost raw, lowered the PG bit by bit until it was smooth enough to be enjoyable to me. I range now from full VG cut with just enough distilled water to slightly thin it to about 80/20 VG/PG. I have slowly adjusted and experimented with my wicking to get things working well. I am honestly happiest with full VG, takes a flavor boost to get the same result in taste but I'm OK with that.
