1. Anyone else prefer to smoke their nicotine pouches?


Answer: Smoke nicotine pouches? Seriously, folks, let's stick to using them as intended. You will thank us! Nicotine pouches are designed to be placed between the gum and upper lip where nicotine and flavours are released. They are not designed to be smoked. Always use ZYN nicotine pouches as intended.

2. Nicotine Pouches: Dumb question. What happens if I kiss somebody?


Answer: Kiss somebody with a pouch? Yes/no/maybe? Well, consider asking first [about their views] not to ruin that moment. On your side, if you kiss someone while using a nicotine pouch, there is a possibility that the pouch could shift or be dislodged. Just remember not to swallow it. To be on the safe side, just remove it and kiss away.  

 

3. Do you guys dip your ZYNs in hot sauce?


Answer: Ketchup, Mayonnaise, Aioli, Chimichurri, Sriracha – whatever the sauce, don’t do it. ZYN nicotine pouch is designed to be used as it is. We work so hard to make it good. 

 

4. Do you guys store your pouches in the fridge?


Answer: Keep your fridge for food items only! Do not store the nicotine pouches at high temperatures, high humidity or outside of the can. Please refer to the safety warning and instructions guide. 

 

5. Anyone else use pouches and vape/smoke cigs at the same time?


Answer: This is a no go. Use only one nicotine product at a time.  

 

6. Anyone else feel like moist nicotine pouches hit harder/quicker?


Answer: Well, this is not completely unexpected! Moisture may affect the release of nicotine from the pouch, which means that some adult users may perceive a stronger effect and a sharper sensation when using ZYN Slim compared to ZYN Mini at the beginning of experience.

This is because ZYN Mini and ZYN Slim are different in terms of product ingredients, size, nicotine strengths, and so on. ZYN Slim is moist to the touch and comes in high nicotine strengths (6 MG – 9 MG). They are designed to offer a rich and well-balanced nicotine experience with an instant burst of flavor. ZYN Mini comes in small size and dry formulation and is available in lower nicotine strengths (1.5 MG – 6 MG). ZYN Mini provides a smooth and gradual release of flavors and nicotine. So, depending on your preferences, choose the right ZYN for you.  

 

7. ZYN on upper lip stopped giving me a buzz. Should I switch to my bottom lip instead?


Answer: It all depends on personal preferences. We created ZYN to be used between the lip and the gum and recommend using it under upper lip, but you decide what feels better for you – upper or lower lip, right or left side of your mouth. Don’t forget, a ZYN nicotine pouch is designed to be used for around 30 minutes. If the tingling sensation fades, it’s a sign that the ZYN pouch is ready to be removed from the mouth and disposed of. 

 

8. Is it bad to put a pouch in right after brushing my teeth at night?


Answer: Putting a pouch in right after brushing your teeth at night might feel like a minty-fresh rollercoaster! But seriously, it could mess with your nicotine pouches experience, so maybe give it a few minutes. For the best experience with ZYN, follow the usage and safety warning and instructions. 

 

9. Do you guys suck the pouches?


Answer: Do not suck on a ZYN pouch! It should be placed under the lip (between your cheek and gum) and that’s it. You don’t need to do anything, leave the rest to ZYN.
