Why vaping makes skin more oily?

[maxx]

I haven't got oily since I switched away from the petrolium flavored cartos....

i use the extra oil to produce internationally award winning moisturizers. The "Get some on you" line is the latest in homeopathology and sure to make a big splash, well, not really splash but more of a sploosh because of the oil, in your neighborhood soon.

I know. I'm sorry.

Thanks again, all, for your thoughts. And comedians, for your slippery jabs. BTW, here's me trying to burn off the oil on my nose>>>

A couple of related thoughts of my own... Ragamuffin, your take on things matches my own fairly closely. I had no idea early on that I'd experience so many physio changes, but I keep trying to A/B and isolate to uncover patterns. Kind of interesting, but also a pain in the .....

And there's definitely a haze on glass in my house and car. I can't recall if PG carts did the same, but the VG piles it on with its mega clouds of vape. Simple glass cleaner worked well enough for me until I pretty much stopped vaping inside. I like clean windows. I've become mostly an outside vaper now, which suits me fine. I used to like smoking outside, so vaping there feels natural.

I'm going to have to check the whole haze thing. I don't see any on the computer but this bears looking into for sure. Never heard that before, but then again I'm still a noob. I wonder if that "haze" has any ill effects or is it meaningless. I find myself getting jittery after certain flavors, I find sometimes at night I get flushed or feel like I'm on some anti-histamine or other. Most of it goes away quickly and most of it seems it's related to particular flavors rather than strengths, which is strange to me.

sidenote: in relation to "jabs" I hope you don't think that bit was directed AT you, I was just confirming that i've noticed it myself. Definitely don't want you to think I was making fun of anything but myself.

It's quite scary to hear about all those chemicals. I used to smoke 'nat sherman' cigarettes which were advertised 'additive free' but im starting to doubt that!

I smoked Nat Sherman (MCDs) for the last 10 years before I quit smoking. Like you, I thought that 'additive free' made my cigs safer than others. Considering how much better I feel since I started vaping (almost six months ago), I realize that 'addititive free' didn't mean much. Sure, they might have contained a lot less crap than other brands, but the tar alone is rather scary. I'm so glad that I quit.

Nah man, didn't even cross my mind. But thanks for the afterthought, Sar. Actually, your Comedian in Crime is none other than Mad Maxx, a good guy gone wild at times, which is why we like him.

Cool, cuz this Federal Protection Program crap is getting old.

I agree with the posters that your body is getting back to normal..and you happen to be oily-er than you remember. There is nothing you are taking in other than nicotine now..compared to analogs..I havent noticed any skin problems yet...but we shall see...

>> There is nothing you are taking in other than nicotine now..

Not to put too fine a point on it, and I know you were agreeing with me, at least in part, but PG and VG are both highly effective humectants. There's a little more going on than "just nicotine" there.
