Being a stoner has some of the greatest perks out there. There are so many great ways to ride that high. Whether you are smoking out of a bong, Puffco, or an Empire Glassworks dry pipe, the feeling is bound to be sensational. However, there may be times when the dab feels more drab than fab.
In today’s blog, we’ll share ten ways to enhance your high life. If your walls are getting a little sticky, your mouth is drier than usual, or you’re simply looking for something new, Empire Smokes has you covered.
#1 Try Something New!
Everyone has their go-to methods. If you’re tired of the same old routine, we recommend stepping outside of your comfort zone and trying something new. If you’re a dabber, maybe try edibles for a different kind of sensation. If you’re into edibles, consider trying a THC-infused drink or a wax pen. The possibilities are endless!
For those who haven’t yet dabbled in the cannabis world, we recommend starting with either a wax pen or 10 mg hybrid edibles. It’s important to ease into the experience rather than jumping straight to 100. And when the time to dab comes, your Empire Smokes Puffco products will be waiting for you!
#2 Clean Regularly
We get it. cleaning is not the most exciting part of smoking. However, taking the time to clean your smoking pieces and accessories can make them feel brand new again, bringing you back to the first time you used them. As previously mentioned, try something new while your regular pieces soak and dry.
To help you get started on your cleaning journey, we recommend checking out our cleaning products. We carry everything from cotton swabs and scrub kits to Empire Smokes exclusive glass cleaner. Trust us, you’ll be set!
#3: Eyedrops, Eyedrops, Eyedrops
Eye drops are a must, especially if you’re out and about. If you’re planning to smoke before heading into public, skip the paranoia and hydrate your eyes beforehand. This can help reduce irritation and ease the worry of everyone knowing you’re high.
P.S. If you wear contact lenses, make sure the eye drops you use are safe for contacts and approved for your eyes!
#4 Entertainment
Entertainment and cannabis just go hand in hand. Video games get more intense, every song you listen to sounds like Mozart, and you step into every movie you watch. Definitely take the chance to discover and appreciate a new form of entertainment with each sesh you have.
If you feel you have done it all or simply don’t know where to start, we have two reads that would be perfect for you!

#5 Soothe Cottonmouth
If you love to smoke but can’t stand dry mouth, this tip is for you! Flintts Mouthwatering Mints are a total game changer. The dryness and constant lip-licking disappear almost instantly. For those who love a good yap session during their smoke sesh, we highly recommend these bad boys.
#6 Mangoes!
When the munchies are calling your name, try digging into some mango. Not only is it highly delicious and healthy, but also a great enhancer for marijuana. Mangoes contain a compound called myrcene that increases the effects of THC. The intensity of this effect varies from person to person, so eat accordingly. Mangoes are also a great help when it comes to dry mouth!
#7 Tolerance Break
If you’re a daily smoker, there’s no judgment here. Do your thing! However, Empire Smokes also believes in the importance of taking a break every now and then to reconnect with reality. A tolerance break gives you the opportunity to save a little money, restore effectiveness, and improve overall mental clarity.
When it comes to timing, we recommend taking at least five days off. Even a short break to let your system reset can be a game changer when you return to your regularly scheduled program!
#8 Touch of Style
This may be the most important hack of them all: styling! When it comes to your bongs, dab mats, or any accessories you use while smoking, bring a little bit of your personality into the mix. Empire Smokes offers a wide variety of animal, food, and pop culture-themed pieces.
Customizing and adding personal touches to your everyday life can help boost both your mood and overall happiness. Plus, the compliments go crazy when you bring your setup to a smoke sesh. Who doesn’t love a little praise?
#9 Make a To-Do List!
High or not, it can be extremely hard to remember everything you need to do on a daily basis. Sometimes cleaning the house with an eddy in your system is the move, but getting sidetracked can easily turn a quick cleanup into a three-hour adventure.
Before smoking, create a to-do list so you’re not stuck trying to remember what still needs to get done. Even if you do get distracted, you’ll have something to fall back on. And don’t forget to throw on some music or a movie while you’re at it. A little entertainment never hurt anybody!
#10 Shop Empire!
We lied about life hack #8, this hack is definitely the most important. Studies have shown that people who buy from Empire Smokes are bound for a happy, well rounded life (just trust us on this one).

Overall, smoking has a lot of fun perks that are easy to forget when so accustomed to the lifestyle. We hope that our list of tips and tricks helps you remember all the fun that comes with being a pothead. We recommend giving each one a shot sporadically. Let us know if you have tried any of these out and what your experience was like!
