Boots Value Health Glycerin BP

Yep Fleabag is right, its not medicated as such, it just coats and soothes a throat, - think dry tickly cough
Lemon and glycerin cough medicine was always in the medicine cupboard at my mums house..

Just a word of warning to anyone thinking of using this... This was the first VG i tried and i was having trouble with flavours.. As in I got NO flavour even up to 20%, it turned out it was this stuff, it muted my flavour. I bought some from ebay and now my mixes are all fine. Have heard other say the same about some of the bottles they got, but somewe also fine.

Well I been using since i started mixing over 4 months now and No issues with flavour apart from the ones I screwed up

Well VG isn't a good flavour carrier, however this is the ONLY VG I use and as Mad said, the only flavours I have issues with are the ones I messed up

The one from Boots is super thick, so it needs to be thinned down if you want flavour (i dont thin down, I just use more flavour )

I tried thinning etc, didn't work for me.. Yet the same ratios with the new vg work fine.. I vape at 60/40 pg/vg

And here I thought it was just me! Tried the boots VG fewmonths back and got no flavor worth mentioning(80/20 pg/vg) tried diluting the VG down, got it down to a 50/50 VG/vodka still the same.. upped the flavoring from a total of 18% to 45% and could faintly taste the juice but still very dull.

Never had the same problem with VG bought from leisureliquids before, or the stuff I buy on ebay since. Very odd.

I've got the same happening now with my usual mixes, very muted flavour if any at all, wish I saw this before mixing a couple of 100ml mixes lol

I just tried to like this thread and couldn't. Baffled for a second before realising I liked it TWO YEARS ago. I'm getting senile
