My cleft lip

[snusjus]

Whenever I use loose snus, I have a very noticeable bulge in my lip that makes me look ridiculous. Are there any techniques you use for making it less apparent? I have tried the old school method of pinching which helps, but all the snus dissipates and ends up all over my mouth. Another method I have tried is baking a cylinder pris and smashing it so its less noticeable, but it ends up breaking apart as well. I would really like to use loose snus, but I can't figure out how to look normal while doing it. Please help!

Thanks.

Grow a big moustache! Otherwise make the pris thinner, or put two small ones in, one on either side. The 3ml icetool makes a nice pris for stealth mode aswell.

Grow a wookie on your face like Xobe, and that should cover it up... :lol:

You shouldn't feel like you need to adhere to a solidly baked pinch. If you let it conform to the shape of the space between your gum and lip you'll have less of a bulge. You'll also get more flavor and nicotine that way.

There's a fine line between a pinch being too hard and too loose I find, and being able to walk it takes practice, but is worth it.

snusjus, I have the same problem with loose. Looks like I have a tumor in my lip. I gave up on loose, not convenient and since I am around someone 90% of my day it would get used less than once day. The beard does sound like a good idea.

Mr. Snuffleupagus HAHAHA that is one reason why i grew a dirty handle bar 'stache-ola. The stache is awesome for hiding snus with. I would suggest growing one (warning you my find the need to wear denim).

I actually don't have a beard right now. My method was just use it so much in public/work that anyone who knows me knows what it is.

People who don't know me/don't know what it is... Who cares what they think. If they make a comment i'll pull out my pris and fling it at them :lol: Not really, but it'd be amusing :wink:

is there a particular reason why snus must be placed in the upper lip?

after dipping for quite a while my cheek has provided me a small "pouch"
where I can hide away a generous pinch.

Snus will develop less moisture in the upper lip, therefore less saliva, therefore less spit. Plus, it stays together better up there. If you like it in the lower lip then by all means go ahead.Some people like the Offroad long cut in their lower lip.

It's not like we'll kick you out of the snus club if you do it wrong. :lol:
