E-liquids, also called vape juice, are the liquid used in vape kits or e-cigarettes. When heated, they turn into vapour you inhale. Each e-liquid is made with regulated, safe ingredients and comes in lots of flavours, nicotine strengths, and bottle sizes.
At BuyVapeUK, we stock one of the largest e-liquid ranges in the UK, so beginners and advanced vapers alike can find their perfect match.

What is Vape Juice?
Vape juice is basically fuel for your vape. It’s made of a base liquid, flavour, and optional nicotine. Some bottles are ready to use (like small 10 ml ones), and shortfills let you add nicotine shots yourself.
Available sizes:
- 10 ml bottles – perfect for nic salts or freebase, fully TPD compliant.
- 50 ml / 100 ml shortfills – big bottles for sub-ohm users who vape a lot.
What’s Inside Vape Juice?
Every e-liquid has 3–4 main ingredients:
- VG (Vegetable Glycerine): Smooth vapour, big clouds.
- PG (Propylene Glycol): Stronger flavour, more throat hit.
- Food-Grade Flavourings: Safe and tasty.
- Nicotine (optional): High, low, or none – your choice.
✅ All our juices are TPD compliant, with childproof caps and tamper-proof seals.
VG & PG in E-Liquids
VG and PG are the base liquids in every e-liquid:
- VG: Thick, smooth, makes big clouds.
- PG: Thin, carries flavour, gives stronger throat hit.
VG/PG ratio affects your vape experience.
VG / PG Ratios Explained
- 50/50 Blends: Balanced flavour & vapour, works with most kits.
- High VG (70%+): Smooth inhale, massive clouds, perfect for sub-ohm kits.
High PG (60%+): Strong throat hit, closer to smoking, ideal for pod kits and beginners.
Vaping Styles & Best E-Liquids
- Mouth to Lung (MTL): Like a cigarette. Nic salts or 50/50 blends work best.
- Direct to Lung (DTL): Big clouds, inhale straight to lungs. Needs high VG.
- Restricted Direct Lung (RDL): Mix of both. Balanced 50/50 blends are ideal.
Types of E-Liquids
- Nicotine Salts: Smooth, fast nicotine absorption, perfect for new vapers.
- Freebase Nicotine: Stronger throat hit, lasts longer, ideal for experienced users.
- Shortfills: Big bottles without nicotine. Add nic shots to your preference.
- Zero Nicotine: Just flavour and clouds – great for cloud chasers.
Flavour Categories You Can Try
- Tobacco: Classic, rich, perfect for ex-smokers.
- Menthol & Ice: Cool and refreshing.
- Fruits: Juicy, sweet, tropical blends.
- Desserts & Sweets: Custards, pastries, candies, creamy mixes.
