Zero nicotine vapes have seen a huge rise in popularity over the past year. Since the disposable vape ban of 2025 many people decided it was time to quit vaping and started to reduce their nicotine strength. This wave of people looking to quit vaping concluded in zero nicotine vaping gaining more traction, however many people are still unsure on how to quit vaping using no nicotine. In this blog we'll go through the different types of zero nicotine vaping and help you decide which products suit you best.
How to quit vaping without nicotine:
Quitting vaping is admittedly one of the hardest things many people try to accomplish. They may have already quit smoking and are not looking forward to repeating the process. There are a lot of factors that go into why zero nicotine vaping can help kick your vaping habit for good.
Reducing Nicotine Gradually
We wouldn't recommend jumping from 20mg (2%) or even 10mg (1%) to 0mg. Going from a strong vape to nothing can create really strong cravings that you may struggle to ignore. We'd recommend staying at a lower nicotine strength like 5mg or 3mg for a while until cutting out nicotine completely.
Keeping It Up
It may sound counterproductive, however you should continue vaping your 0mg as much as you would your nicotine e-liquid. This is because the hand-to-mouth action is an addictive habit you pick up along the way. Vaping isn'tjust about nicotine, it's about the ritualistic hand motion. Making sure you keep vaping your zero nicotine vape as often as you would your nicotine vape.
What is zero nicotine vaping, and what's inside a zero nicotine vape?
Simply put; zero nicotine vapes and vape juice contain the exact same ingredients as a nicotine e-liquid, just minus the nicotine. The three components that create a 0mg e-liquid are:
- PG (propylene glycol): This is a thin liquid that keeps the flavourings fresh.
- VG (vegetable glycerine): This is a thicker liquid, the more there is the bigger the clouds and thicker the e-liquid.
- Flavourings: They can be artificial or naturally derived, however they're all food safe.
Nicotine free vaping functions the same as nicotine vaping, essentially this means you can use the same vape kits and wattages you'd usually use. As nicotine is the ingredient that makes a vape juice 'harsh', you don't have to worry as much about which device you're going to use as long as it's compatible with the PG/VG ratio (thickness) of the e-liquid. This leads us on to the main way people vape with no nicotine; refillable pod kits.
Refillable Pod Kits
Refillable pod kits have been around for a while, however they are often marketed to people who vape high-strength nicotine e-liquids. If you're looking to reduce your nicotine strength and you already vape with nicotine, chances are you have a refillable pod kit already. These kits are simple to use and feature a rechargeable built-in battery and a vape pod which you refill with e-liquid. Many people use nic salts with their refillable vape kits although they can be used with any strength of e-liquid due to their lower power output.
50VG/50PG is the recommended e-liquid ratio for the majority of refillable vapes. You can slightly vary this to 40VG/60PG or 60VG/40PG by utilising the different coil resistances available for your pod kit. A lower resistance means a coil can deal with higher VG e-liquids. Most zero nicotine e-liquids are mixed to a 50VG/50PG ratio making them suitable for all vapes. You can view all of our 50VG/50PG 0mg vape juices here.
