How to Use Nicotine Pouches: A Straightforward Guide
“The greatest wealth is health.” — Virgil
And when it comes to switching from smoking or vaping, nicotine pouches offer a cleaner, more discreet way to stay in control. But here’s the kicker — they only work well if you use them properly.
So, let’s cut through the noise. Whether you're brand new or just unsure if you're doing it right, this is your no-fluff, highly practical guide to how to use nicotine pouches — brought to you by SnusClub.co.uk.
Step 1 – Choose the Right Strength
Before you even open the can, you need to know your nicotine tolerance.
| Strength | User Type |
|---|---|
| 2–4 mg | New users or light smokers |
| 6–8 mg | Moderate smokers or vapers |
| 10–12 mg | Experienced users |
Too strong and you risk side effects like dizziness or nausea. Too weak and, well, you won’t feel much at all.

Step 2 – Place It Under Your Upper Lip
This is the core of how to use nicotine pouches.
-
Take one pouch from the can.
-
Tuck it under your upper lip, off to one side — usually between your gum and cheek.
-
No chewing. No sucking. Just let it sit there.
Within 2–5 minutes, you’ll start to feel the nicotine release. A slight tingling is totally normal — it usually fades within a few minutes.

Step 3 – Keep It In for 15 to 45 Minutes
Most users keep their pouch in for around 20–30 minutes. You can stretch it to 45 minutes if you're still feeling the kick.
Want more flavour? Use a fresh pouch. Don’t chew the same one for hours — it’s not gum!
Step 4 – Dispose of It Responsibly
When you're done, remove the pouch and throw it away in a bin — or the handy disposal lid found in most canisters.
Never flush it or toss it outside. These pouches may be small, but waste matters.
