It’s Ice Mint

The Active Ingredient

Nicotine USP/EP — Pharmaceutical-grade nicotine meeting United States Pharmacopeia and European Pharmacopoeia standards. The reason you’re here. Delivered through your mouth’s lining for fast absorption – no smoke, no vapour, no fuss.

The Film-Forming Duo

Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) — A plant-derived polymer that creates the dissolvable film structure. It’s the same stuff that makes capsule shells – safe, effective, and melts on your tongue like a very productive snowflake.

Pullulan — A natural polysaccharide produced by fermentation. It creates that satisfyingly smooth, rapid-dissolving texture. Think edible plastic wrap, but way more sophisticated (and actually good for you to consume).

The Sweetness Department

Caramel Powder — Natural colouring and a hint of toasted sweetness. Makes the strip look appealing and adds a subtle flavour depth.

Glucitol (Sorbitol) — A sugar alcohol that adds sweetness without the sugar crash. Also acts as a plasticiser, keeping your strip flexible rather than brittle. Multitasking at its finest.

The Smooth Operators

Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) — A pharmaceutical staple that helps the film remain supple and dissolve evenly. It’s in everything from skin creams to laxatives – versatile stuff.

Simethicone — The anti-foam agent. Prevents bubbles forming during manufacturing and helps the strip lie flat on your tongue. Also the same ingredient in baby colic drops – tried and tested.

The Behind-the-Scenes Crew

Silicon Dioxide — Ultra-fine silica that prevents ingredients from clumping and ensures even distribution across the film. The same mineral that makes up sand, but processed to pharmaceutical purity.

Purified Water — The solvent that makes the whole casting process possible. Evaporates during drying, leaving behind just the good stuff.

The Flavour

Flavour — The personality of the strip. Whatever variant you’ve chosen, this is what makes it taste like something other than “dissolving nicotine film.”
