Used to Vape Lost Mary? Here’s Your OXVA Alternative (UK 2026)
Lost Mary was the UK’s second most popular disposable vape brand before the June 2025 ban — beloved for its tight MTL draw and intense flavour output. The good news: OXVA’s XLIM range delivers the same style of vape in a refillable format, at a fraction of the long-term cost. Here’s exactly which OXVA device matches each Lost Mary model.
The OXVA XLIM Go Lite costs £6.99 — less than two Lost Marys.
After the initial device cost, a week’s vaping on nic salts costs around £4–5 instead of £35–40 on disposables. That adds up to over £1,600 saved per year at typical daily use.
