I saw the 'oil' bit and that's what worried me, it's no loss if it's not used, and it's been made aware of!

I wouldn't use it if it says it has oil in it. I really hope it doesn't

No prob.  E-liquid doesn't contain oil, or at least it should not!

You don't need to spend a lot to get decent quality from a known source, have a look here

Coincidentally I was in my barbers today, vape friendly aswell I will add and he mentioned the "stuff they sell on the market is supposed to be best avoided". Now I know the stuff on our market is the ibreathe liquid. Now on another previous occasion I was in conversation with a B&M vendor and he said avoid it as it contains oil from questionable sources and oil should not be in it at all. Now I thought at the time yeah yeah mate is this because you sell a well known Chinese liquid ! But reading this has made me think again. All hearsay of course but never the less I personally would avoid it.

Yes VG is derived from vegetable oil that is correct, but technically is not an oil itself

Vegetable glycerin is a natural product made from vegetable oil, often coconut or palm oil. Glycerin is classified as a humectant, meaning it attracts moisture to the skin, and is thought to leave the skin moist and healthy. It has very emollient properties and can help soften and smooth the skin. Vegetable glycerin is also used in making herbal tinctures where alcohol can not be used.

Ah thanks for that fiddles,i just like to know what im Vaping,im sure its fine

[stonethecrows]

ibreathe Cherry has: <1.0% orange ''oil'' - <1.0% Ginger ''oil'' - <0.5%Nutmeg ''oil''. Not for me thanks. I'd rather vape my home-made, thank you very much.

I don't buy many pre-mades OP but...I'm sure there are a few on here, who can point you in the right direction.

I (hope) to shed some light.

iBreathe are a legitimate outfit selling kits and liquid. The list of the ingredients is a generic list encompassing many/all of their flavours.

I ran into their products over a year ago and also "had words" with a market stall vendor about his claims and statements. (Only product approved by the government etc.)

Anyway, I stopped buying the liquid as I had concerns. I can report no ill effects though.

The latest news, confirmed by none other than ECITA is that iBreathe have signed up to ECITA and this can only be good news. I expect to see new products and liquids on the market quite soon. My concern was that it was "not real" UK liquid, mixed up in the UK using Chinese ingredients, including *unknown* substances, some of which are certainly natural based. The trouble, as ever, is that we don't really know what natural extracts can do when inhaled rather than eaten.

ECITA members are rigorously tested in all aspects of the regulatory requirements for the safe and legal sale of electronic cigarette products.

This will apply rigorously to the new liquids. What the "old" liquids contain will certainly not have been tested. Personally, I finished off what I had and didn't revisit the brand.

Fair play to iBreathe if you ask me. It's going to cost (££) to be in the club, and although I don't like elements of ECITA, product quality and safety control has got to be a good thing.
