Pro Tips

If you’re reading this you’re either interested in using nicotine pouches or are already using them and want to keep your usage discrete. The good news is that you’re in the right place. Pouches have become a popular way to discretely get a nicotine fix without having to absorb any tobacco.

Using Nicotine Pouches Correctly

Before you can use nicotine pouches you need to choose a brand, strength, and your preferred flavour. There are plenty of options and we recommend a little trial and error to find the ones you like the most. Pouch usage is easy, simply take the pouch and slide it between your teeth and your inner cheek. As soon as it’s comfortable, leave it in place for between 30-60 minutes. It couldn’t be easier and, as you can see, it already offers a discrete nicotine hit.

"There are other things you can do to ensure your pouch usage is discrete."

Choose Smaller Pouches

Pouches come in three main sizes, mini, small, and standard or regular. In general, the smaller the pouch the lower the nicotine content. Larger pouches are the best choice for heavy smokers. However, larger pouches will be visible as a slight bulge in your cheek. If you want to keep your nicotine pouch discrete opt for smaller packets. These are effectively invisible.

Use Alternative Packaging

Most nicotine pouches come in small circular tins. The tins are designed to keep your pouches dry and preserve their flavour. However, the tins also contain marketing, specifically health warnings and the manufacturer’s name, along with the fact they are nicotine pouches. If you want to ensure discretion, you’ll need to take the nicotine pouches out of the manufacturer’s container and into one of your own. When choosing a suitable container, remember that pouches need to be kept dry and away from heat and light.

Choose Your Input Location Wisely

To maintain your discretion, you’ll also need to think about when you put your nicotine pouch in your mouth. This is easy if you’re at home, there is always a spare room. However, if you’re at work, with friends, or simply out, you’ll want to find a quiet space where you can quickly pop the pouch into position without anyone being the wiser.

Practice

It’s perfectly possible to slide a pouch out of the packaging in your pocket without attracting undue attention. You can then hold the pouch in the palm of your hand and, when you’re ready, reach your hand to your mouth and slip it into position. Practice this in private and you’ll be able to do this anywhere without anyone around you noticing.

Summing Up

Using pouches discretely also means disposing of them properly. If you don’t want people to know you’re using pouches you can’t simply place them in the bin. Instead, wrap the pouch in something to ensure it isn’t clear what it is. Then you can drop it into the bin. Being discrete with your pouches doesn’t need to be hard work, just follow the simple guidelines above and practice. You’ll be able to use them whenever you want without anyone being the wiser.
