Vaping typically describes the use of an e-cigarette, vape or e-vapor product, which produces a vapor that is inhaled by the consumer. 

Contrary to smoking, there is no burning of tobacco or e-liquids (vape juice), and therefore no smoke to inhale, making the use of vaping products potentially less harmful.
