hi all, i am 22. i go to college in austin,tx. i study in electrical engineering. yes i am a nerd ☹ . i am more into a shy behind the screen guy. i dont consider myself clumsy but maybe that is what other peoples think. i am such a bad person at socializing that i dont think people who dont know me will notice my existance ☹ but hey, i have some friends too who actually love to hang out with me and these friend of mine most of them each has girlfriend and not social failure like me ☹ i am who i am but hey, i am 22 and soon be 23. i think it is about time for me to go out, show myself a bit, and get myself a girlfriend 🙂 i heard about pheromone for awhile now but havent have a chance to try it myself. i am not sure which product should i try. i read all the sticky newb guides. at 1st i am thinking to get Instant Shine but as i read further, the guides actually suggest to put on 2-3 kind of scent at same time. i am thinking to put in either A314 or [Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/) on top of Instant Shine. i am kinda low on budget on pheromone scent since i never used it and experience the differences. so what do u guys suggesting? i am not going to spend all my money on something that i havent tried personally, but that doesnt mean that i am a cheap person. i just want something that actually works as in i would buy 2 or mayhhbee 3 kind of scent and having people atleast to notice me rather than buy 1 kind and be an epic failure. so that all for my introduction. i hope i qualify for $15 so i can get different kind of scent.xD Please PheroTalk help meh…🙂 ---

Welcome lyxzlol! Why all those sad smilies? Nothing wrong with being a nerd. I’m one. 🙂 Before you place an order, get one thing straight though: pheromones will not make people flock to be around you or make girls fall head over heels for you if you continue to be withdrawn and shy. You have to approach people. You are the medium through which the pheromones act. However, if you get out there and demonstrate a little confidence, the pheros can make a big difference. As for your choices, A314 is probably not the right phero for you. It’s usually used by older men, and adds an air of serious respect which would probably intimidate the kind of people you want to attract. [Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/) and Instant Shine are always a good combination for attracting girls and getting them interested. You might also try Ammo. As for the actual scents (meaning the smell of the products) most are fairly easy to cover with cologne, so you don’t really need to worry about getting different scents. I look forward to reading about your experiences. Good luck! ---

Also, don’t think of yourself as a social failure. You’re a flower that has yet to bloom. Start working on your confidence. Take small risks. Approach people. Yes, you will fail sometimes, especially at first, but you will also learn. Keep doing it, all the time, and it will become natural. ---

Hello lyxzlol, Welcome to pherotalk 😃 Well, the good news is you’ve taken a step in the right direction by identifying your problem. First of all, you should start with one pheromone at a time, you can mix them later to elicit different effects. [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) is definitely a good choice. It will give you an aura of youthful confidence and may even have a self-effect on you creating a positive feedback loop (i.e. it makes you feel good, you feel good, you look like you feel good, people notice you feel good, that makes you feel good, and so on). Because you sound like a very shy person, I would keep A314 off your purchase list for now. Just stick with the instants. Ishine, IO, IH, IFM, etc. Once you’ve grown accustomed to pheromone use, and maybe have become a bit more confident and outgoing, then maybe consider A314. At this point, it would probably be a waste of money for oyu. Good luck. ---

Hello and welcome to the forum. I would go with either Ammo or [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/) for a base and then use Instant Shine or IO on top of it. For more information about Ammo or Instant Shine read the threads in my signature block. ---

@Vespero yea, i am working on it. so i am thinking [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) + Ammo then.🙂 btw, how Ammo smells? i am planning to use my own cologne as cover up. is it cool or bad idea? ---

Hello Welcome to Pherotalk 🙂 I think AMMO and Ishine would be perfect for you to start with. AMMO comes in its own cologne cover so you dont need to use anything with it. It smells like Hugo Boss. A314 is defiantly not what you need right away. First lets get you out there interacting with others then you can work on upping the status. If you have questions just ask. **Your GC is on the way 😃** Tisha
