After the recent LYFT to VELO transition, LYFT was a name that European users thought they might never see again. But, earlier this month, British American Tobacco put the legendary line back on the market with a sleek new look and other exciting features and improvements.

Have you ever opened a can of pouches and wondered why you must put them under your upper lip? If so, you are not alone. It is a question that many users ask because it is so specific. In this article, we take you through why nicotine pouches go under the upper lip and explain the benefits of this placement. We also touch on other, less conventional placement positions, such as the lower lip, and what you can expect by choosing to put your pouches there. To find the answers to all your questions about how to use nicotine pouches and other helpful tips and tricks, keep reading.

The great thing about nicotine pouches is that they come in many different nicotine strengths and flavours. Some nicopods will deliver a powerful nicotine kick, whilst others will only give off a gentle buzz. Although nicotine content values and labels indicate the exact amount of nicotine in your product, there are a multitude of factors that can affect how strong a nicotine pouch will actually feel to you. This may sound unlikely, but factors such as individual differences, moisture content, pH levels, and even flavouring, can influence the strength of a nicotine pouch.

With a product featuring 'nicotine' in the name, it can be easy to think that it is all about getting a buzz, which is very easy to do in the EU and UK. When nicopods first emerged, strengths rarely exceeded the strong level of 20 mg/g, and many consumers were satisfied by this. However, as time went on, appetites for nicotine began to grow, and the industry saw products released with over 100 mg/g, resulting in the birth of a whole new category of extreme strength.

The Skruf Super White line launched back in 2018 from Skruf Snus in Sweden. In terms of quality, Skruf is one that produces a high quality product much like you would get with Swedish Match. There are a lot of nicotine pouch products on the market these days, but Skruf’s Super White line is one of the higher quality ones you can buy. I put them on par with Lyft/Velo, for example. The line comes with a variety of flavors, I'm partial to their Cassice, but Skruf Super White Slim Fresh Strong #4 is quite popular among mint lovers.
