What is Vaping and is it safe?
Vaping is widely seen as a safer alternative than smoking traditional cigarettes. It requires two fundamental elements: a vaping device and a compatible e-liquid. The vaping device, or e-cigarette, essentially vaporises the e-liquid to produce a vapour which is then inhaled and exhaled by the user.
In 2015, Public Health England found that vaping is 95% safer than smoking cigarettes. Vapes UAE, we focus on premium products that are tried and tested by thousands of users every day.
Will Vaping help me Quit Smoking?
Over 41 million people worldwide have made the switch from tobacco through the use of vaping devices. As confirmed by many independent organisations, including Public Health England and the NHS, vaping reputable e-liquids is significantly less harmful than smoking.
Flexible nicotine strengths allow you to retain an effective nicotine dosage without all the harmful chemicals associated with smoking.
What ingredients are used to make e-liquids?
Our e-liquid products are made using Vegetable Glycerine, Propylene Glycol, Flavourings and Nicotine – nothing else.
What are Nicotine Salts and what are the benefits?
Many vapers are turning to Nicotine salts as an alternative to traditional freebase nicotine e-liquids. Nicotine salts are found naturally in tobacco leaves and produce a perfectly smooth vaping experience with minimal throat irritation.
The nicotine is also absorbed faster and remains in your system for longer, providing a more intense level of satisfaction than freebase nicotine. For this reason, vapers are able to reduce their nicotine strength and still enjoy an effective nicotine hit.
What nicotine level should I start at?
This really depends on two factors:
- How much did you used to smoke?
- What equipment are you going to use?
If you smoke around 20 a day and intend to use a starter kit, we recommend starting at 18-24mg.
If you smoke 10 per day and are using a starter kit, try 12-18mg.
If you smoke less than 10 per day and are using a starter kit, try 6-12mg.
If you're using standard beginner setups such as the ego or eSmart starter kits, you will naturally require a higher nicotine strength than if you're using sub ohm tanks and higher power. Some e-cigarettes and personaly vapourisers run at high power. These devices generally allow users to consumer a greater volume of liquid in a shorter space of time than 'standard' equipment. If you're using this type of setup, you will naturally require a low nicotine liquid.

How do you choose what to stock?
We’ve been vapers for quite some time, and have seen many brands rise and fall. It isn’t enough these days to just have a good flavour… products need to be good across the board. This means liquids that we know contain nothing harmful. This means outstanding branding and labelling. Mostly it’s that intangible gut instinct when you realise that the liquid you just vaped is something rather special.
That’s what we look for when we take on products. Sure, we’ve got the biggest brands around, but we also like to take chances on new brands that we think will be tomorrow’s big favourites. It is this mix of current crowd pleasers, with tomorrow’s crowd pleasers, that make what we offer so unique.
All us dedicated vapers are the same – we all like to make noise about something new, and innovative, and exciting. We want to become the ‘go to’ store for vapers who set trends, not just follow them.

What ingredients do e-liquids contain?
Our e-liquid products are made using only Vegetable Glycerine, Propylene Glycol, Nicotine and Flavourings - nothing else.
What nicotine strength should I be using?
Choose the nicotine strength that’s right for you based on your previous smoking habits. But remember, the overall aim would be to reduce the dosage over time and eventually cut it out altogether. Our e-liquids help you do this seamlessly and at your own pace.
- Heavy smokers (20+ cigarettes a day) - 18-20mg Nicotine
- Medium smokers (10-20 cigarettes a day) - 10-12mg Nicotine
