How Nicotine Pouches Work
- 1
Place Under Your Lip
Tuck it between your upper lip and gum — it sits discreetly.
- 2
Wait 20-40 Minutes
A gentle tingling means the nicotine is releasing.
- 3
Remove & Bin
When the flavour fades, bin it. No spitting, no smoke.
Choose Your Strength
Start gentle. You can always go stronger later — but you can't undo going too strong on your first try.
Light — Perfect Starting Point
Gentle and barely-there — ideal for your very first pouch.
Normal — After Your First Week
Move here once you're comfortable with light.
Strong — Not for Beginners
Can cause nausea and dizziness if you haven't built tolerance.
Extra Strong & Above — Experienced Only
Never start here.
