How to Use a Nicotine Pouch

Using a pouch, step by step

1. Pick your spot. Upper lip, against the gum, off to one side. Most people settle on a side they prefer within a few tries.
2. Set it and leave it. Press it into place with your tongue. Don't chew it and don't move it around — the pouch works fine sitting still.
3. Give it a minute. Your saliva hydrates the pouch and the nicotine releases gradually. No tingling.
4. Take it out. A Sesh+ pouch stays soft for up to 30 minutes — take it out whenever the flavor fades. Pouches go in the trash, never down a drain.

What is a nicotine pouch?

A nicotine pouch is a small white pouch that holds nicotine, flavoring, plant fiber, and sweetener. It sits under your lip, and there's nothing to spit.

A Sesh+ pouch has ten ingredients and no tobacco: nicotine in a beta-cyclodextrin complex, plant-based Alba fiber, MCT oil, glycerol, propylene glycol, maltitol, acesulfame potassium, calcium lactate, purified water, and the flavor system. Every ingredient and what it does →

Sesh+ pouches come in six flavors at 4mg, 6mg and 8mg.

Spit, swallowing, and what to do when you're done

You don't spit with a nicotine pouch and you don't swallow it. You'll produce a little more saliva than usual for the first few minutes — swallowing normally is fine, and that's all most people do.

When you're finished, take the pouch out and bin it. Don't flush it.

4mg, 6mg or 8mg?

Sesh+ comes in three strengths. 4mg is the lightest, 8mg is the strongest, 6mg sits in between. If you're not sure, most first-timers start at 4mg and adjust from there based on what they actually prefer.

How long does a nicotine pouch last?

A Sesh+ pouch stays soft for up to 30 minutes. The flavor is strongest in the first ten and tapers from there, which is usually what tells someone it's time to take it out.

Unopened cans keep best somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sun.

How many pouches do people use in a day?

There isn't a Sesh+ number, and we're not going to invent one. It depends on the strength you use and how your day is shaped — some people have one or two, some have more.

Nicotine is addictive.

Your first pouch

A slow, even release — no tingling. More saliva than usual for a few minutes. Flavor that's strong up front and fades over the session.

If it's more than you want, take the pouch out — it stops. Plenty of people try a lighter strength or a different flavor on the second go and land somewhere they like better.
