Since the majority of the nic is absorbed within the mouth, nose and throat, it is not necessary to deeply inhale into your lungs. Most of us do tho, because that is how we smoked. And that behavioral habit is hard to break.

Does anyone on here only "puff" their vapor? Or, intentionally not take the vapor into their lungs? Especially curious about those that did inhale their analogs before, but are getting their nic fix from only taking the vapor into their mouth without inhaling.
GoochMan Senior Member ECF Veteran
I'm really new at this only about 10 days myself. But I've been experimenting with that and it seems to work not inhaling into my lungs. I could be wrong but it feels like I am absorbing the nicotine through the back of my nose. I am taking a puff then slowly pulling it up and exhaling through my nose. But again I.
spaceballsrules Ultra Member Verified Member ECF Veteran
When my grandmother smoked analogs, she would take the smoke in her mouth and exhale through her nose without ever taking the smoke into her lungs. I am sure some vapers do this. I have seen pbusardo do it in some of his videos, but he also inhales the vaper into his lungs.
Beans Ultra Member Verified Member ECF Veteran
Yep, nic absorbes through your mucus membranes. I inhale because I love the feeling, but it's not necessary to get your fix.

As others here have said some vapers, if they need a strong hit, will "french" inhale- take vapor from mouth, softly exhale and suck up the vapor thru the nose where there are many surface blood vessels to absorb the nic.
