Thank you so much everybody - I know it's not something to be ashamed of. Considering that smokers are frowned upon most times ( used to be very self-conscious telling new people I met I am a smoker ).
I will follow your advice and have some pre-filled cartos with me whenever I go out .
I havent yet been approached by people asking me with it is. I have been quite discreet with it though. At home Im happily vaping away , but in public feel so shy about it still.

Hi everyone! New to vaping , only been doing it a week. Very much enjoying it but ... I feel quite embarrassed when it comes to doing it in public. So even if I'm just popping down to the local shop or going on a night out , I feel very self-conscious taking it out and vaping on it. In my head i feel as people look at me suspiciously , like I'm doing something weird or wrong. Or god knows , even illegal!  I still very much treat it as I did with cigs , in terms of : I'll go out of a restaurant or club to have a vape. Or think I need 5 mins alone with my e-cig , like I used to take little breaks when having a cig. Not to mention that , when I'm in public and I need to refill with juice - gosh , feel I should hide in a corner so nobody can see what I'm doing. Has anyone got any advice for me , please? |

Oh , that's a shame that I cant use those Vision ego's as they look so nice. So I assume I cant really use a drip tip or a mouthpiece with what I've got? Though to be honest , my mouth and lips feel a little bit better today after more water and a huge amount of lipbalm  Thank you 4madcats , Im sticking to it and enjoying it so far - good luck to us both! Love cats by the way , if that's what your nickname suggests  Bluefish - I really like to look of the ego-C Twist  They look quite long though , I need to get used to the e-cig a bit better before I take the plunge. |

Thank you for the recommendation Colliwobbles ( fun nickname by the way! ) - I shall give it a go next time Im placing an order. I've gone for Volcano Menthol burst which is one of the strongest menthols on the market or so I read. Chrissie , thank you for the warm welcome! I bought a starter kit from Jacvapour , it's nice and sleek but the battery life is rather weak. Will look to upgrade at some point www.jacvapour.com/PCC_kits-The_NEW_V1P_PCC_starter_kit.html |

BC - those Ego rainbows look so pretty !!! I am definitely getting a pink and a blue one Thank you for the warm welcome Sandra . There is indeed so much info around , and I feel like such a newbie for not knowing what some of the things mean. But I suppose we've all been there at the beggining. Probably vaping strong menthol juice doesnt help either . Used to be a menthol smoker and so far , out of the 4 juices I have , only the strongest of strong menthols has helped out cure the cig cravings. |

Yes, exactly - they are white with a little hole in them . I remove the bung and drip the liquid in the carto - but sometimes I still get liquid on my lips when I vape. Thank you so much beautycat - I watched the video attached to it and it said that you should use the drip tips with a manual battery and I have an automatic one  Oh no! |

Hiya beautycat and thank you for the warm welcome. I'm using cartos that I top up myself with juice , they have a little plastic top ( I think they are called bungs? )

Hiya everyone!
Newbie here. Have been vaping for the last week or so and very happy to have found an alternative to smoking , considering that I wasn't even considering quitting.
My partner suggested it one day , as he is a non smoker and I said " OK , why not? Let's give it a try! "
Then I discovered these forums and the wonderful community of vapers , so have been reading this forum constantly in the last couple of days.
Now I got a question : is e-juice really harmful for your mouth and lips? It does happen that you end up with liquid in your mouth or lips once in a while.
My lips have been quite raw and sore since I started vaping. I do wipe it off afterwards but it hasn't helped.
