Is It safe to use expired e-liquids?

 

when e-liquids start degrading over time, they will likely begin to change in flavour, scent, colour, thickness, etc.

However, this doesn’t necessarily mean the vape juice has become unsafe to use. None of the ingredients in e-liquid will suddenly turn toxic over time.

Realistically, a hit or two will probably not kill you - that is how many vapers noticed there was something strange about their liquid in the first place. However, there have been no studies done on the safety of expired vape juice. It is unclear if vaping expired juice can be harmful, or what could happen if you decided to vape a lot of expired juice. If you have found this article, wondering if your ejuice is safe to vape, we do not recommend it. The main degradation of ejuices is with the nicotine and flavoring. So you would most likely be vaping something that tastes off and doesn’t satisfy any nicotine cravings. There is very little reason to try that when you can pick up a new bottle. Despite this, we would still recommend that you avoid using your e-liquid if you are starting to see the changes listed above. Not only will it be fairly unpleasant to use an e-liquid when the flavour, thickness, and strength has changed, but there is also a lack of research into the effects of continuously using very expired e-liquid.

If your e-juice has passed the best before date on the label, but you can’t see any of these signs of degradation, then it will be safe to use.

How to store e-liquids

Remember to store your e-liquids in a cool, dry, dark place and keep them closed until you need them. This will help to preserve their life for as long as possible.
