What are Nicotine Pouches?
Nicotine pouches are small, tobacco-free pouches designed to sit under your upper lip. Unlike traditional snus, they contain no tobacco leaf and produce no smoke, vapour or lingering smell. Instead, nicotine is released gradually and absorbed through the mouth lining while the pouch is in place.
Most pouches are made with nicotine, plant-based fibres, water, flavourings and sweeteners. Because there is no combustion or vapour, they offer a discreet option for adults who want to use nicotine in situations where smoking or vaping is not suitable.
Pouch formats & sizes
Nicotine pouches come in different formats to suit different preferences. Slim pouches are the most common, sitting discreetly under the lip with minimal visibility. Some brands also offer mini pouches, which are smaller and may feel lighter or less noticeable.
Most cans contain around 20 portions, although this can vary by brand and format.
How do you use a nicotine pouch?
Using a nicotine pouch is simple and requires no device, lighter or charging.
Place it under your upper lip
Place one pouch under your upper lip, between the gum and lip. Do not chew, suck or swallow the pouch.
Leave it in place
Keep the pouch in place for around 20–30 minutes, or follow the guidance on the can. You may notice a mild tingling sensation during the first few minutes as the nicotine is released.
Dispose of it responsibly
After use, place the pouch in a bin or in the disposal compartment inside the can lid, where provided. Do not flush used pouches or drop them as litter.
Because there is no smoke, vapour or strong smell, nicotine pouches can be used discreetly in many situations where smoking or vaping is not suitable.
What nicotine pouch strength should I choose?
Nicotine pouch strength is usually measured in milligrams per pouch. The right strength depends on your nicotine tolerance, how often you use pouches and whether you are switching from cigarettes or vaping. If you are new to nicotine pouches, it is usually best to start lower and move up only if needed.
If you are unsure, start with a lower strength and see how your body responds. Stronger pouches can feel intense, especially if you are new to this format.
Why do nicotine pouches tingle?
A mild tingling sensation is common during the first few minutes of use and is usually a sign that the pouch is releasing nicotine and flavour. If the sensation feels too strong or uncomfortable, try a lower strength or a smaller pouch format next time.

Are nicotine pouches safer than smoking?
Nicotine pouches are tobacco-free and smoke-free. Compared with other nicotine products such as cigarettes or vapes, they avoid combustion and vapour while still delivering nicotine.
How many nic pouches should I buy?
The average person gets through 6–10 pouches a day, though this varies depending on your cravings and the strength you're using. If you're getting through pouches quickly, it may be worth going up a strength. Packs contain 20–25 pouches each, lasting most users 2–3 days. Stock up with our multi-buy nicotine pouch deals to save money on your favourites.
How long should I keep a nicotine pouch in?
Typically between 15–30 minutes, depending on your preference and the strength chosen. Some users prefer to remove them earlier once the flavour or sensation fades.
Can I use nicotine pouches anywhere?
Yes — they are entirely discreet and produce no smoke, vapour or smell, making them suitable for use in offices, public transport, flights and other places where smoking or vaping is not permitted.
What strength should I start with?
If you are new to pouches, start with a lower strength (3–6mg) to let your body adjust to the steady-release delivery. Experienced users or heavy smokers may prefer higher strengths from 11mg upwards.
Are nicotine pouches legal in the UK?
Yes. Nicotine pouches are fully legal and widely available across the UK. They are regulated as a nicotine product and must not be sold to under-18s.
