So you want to start mixing your own eliquids?
There are many reasons why vapers turn to making their own eliquids. You're fed up paying high prices for bottles of ejuice that are only going to last you a day or so. You're tired of the same ol' flavors being repackaged and rebranded over and over again. You want something new and something that will quench that thirst you have for a specific flavor. You're getting bored with vaping and new products and coil builds are leaving you melancholy. You want something that will reignite your love for vaping. Well then you're in the right place.
Mixing your own eliquid is the most cost effective, sustainable, and efficient way to exactly get the vape you want. You can make yourself a flavor that perfectly suits your needs, for pennies on the dollar. So why haven't you heard about this before, or why isn't everyone doing it? Well, mixing your own eliquid does take some time and patience. There is a lot of research to do, a lot of supplies and ingredients to buy, and a lot of time that's needed to efficiently produce vapeable eliquids, let alone good ones. This is not to scare anyone away. Rather, it's to prepare those who are ready to take the jump to DIY mixing, and get them to understand exactly what to expect from it.
Below is the audio that will explain the mental preparation and attitude needed to become a good mixer and someone that can produce themselves an ADV. Listen to the audio to know exactly what to expect when jumping into DIY mixing.
