Adventures with Instant Shine: "OD" works for me!

Field Reports & Anecdotal Experience Women's Pheromone Advice & Field Reports

I purchased a To-Go bottle of Instant Shine several weeks ago, and had road-tested it a few times without much success. I got the 2X strength, so I only used 2 spritzes: one on my wrists (which I then rubbed onto my neck and upper lip for self effects), and one to my hair. I went to school like this several times, but got neither any distinct hits nor self effects. Since I had such good luck with MX300, though, I didn’t worry about it and figured that not every pheromone works with every person.

Well! I ran out of MX300 several days ago and my new shipment isn’t here yet. Yesterday morning, I reached for the Shine while getting ready for school, since I just wanted to wear something. Without thinking, I applied it in the same way that I apply MX300: 2 shots to the wrist (wiping the second shot around mouth for self-effects), 1 shot to neck, and 2 shots to hair. Only as I was leaving the house did I realize: since I got my Shine in 2X, I had just effectively given myself 10 shots!!! I would have washed off, but I was concerned that I could be late, so I just decided to show up with an OD to see what would happen.

All I can say is, I guess I just need a lot more Shine than most people! I actually felt… well… shiny! I felt like a beautiful person: lovely hair, shiny eyes, pink full lips. I felt confident and sunny and smart. I got into a cramped elevator full of students, chirped a “hello,” and realized people were staring at me. I checked my outfit (fine: jeans and college sweatshirt), hair (felt in place), nose & mouth (couldn’t feel a booger/food in my teeth), and once I was sure that there was nothing stare-worthy about my appearance, I concluded that they were in total DIHL mode. In class I knew a lot of the answers and actually had to reel myself in from talking too much-- and that never happens, as I’m often a little insecure. And I felt like people were looking at me admiringly and curiously, like they couldn’t believe how different I was.

Overall, it was a total blast. I guess I just need a much, much stronger amount of Shine than is commonly used, but it absolutely did do the job once I accidentally “OD’d” on it. I’m now thinking that I’ll probably switch b/t Shine and MX300 when I go to school, in order to avoid acclimating too much to one or the other. Shine doesn’t give me that alpha feeling of power that MX300 does, and I do miss that. But Shine makes me feel beautiful and glamorous in a way that MX300 does not-- and that boosts my confidence, too.

What to use next?

Is there such a thing as a Shine OD? LOL! I swear I could take a bath in the stuff!:smiley: A Shiny day is always a Great one!!!:slight_smile: I never leave home without it!

I’m glad you finally got to see Shine at it’s best. Try it w/ 3 or 4 sprays to see if you get the same results as with 5. No use using more than necessary and wasting that precious commodity. And try using the Shine w/ MX300! I think you’ll like the combination.

Nice report! Reps!!

Well, even six sprays didn’t do much for me; maybe I need to try your “method” LOL! I thought much more would be too much, but maybe not…I’d like to experience that ‘shiny’ feeling! :smiley:

if a mix works super well with one person and not another,
im wondering more if its a body-chemistry thing.

i swear if i wear too much of any one mix ,others are squinting from the fumes :smiley:

I think everyone should try a “phero bath” at least once!!:smiley:

I hear ya. With Shine, I acutally will apply a few sprays at a time w/ a half hour in between each application so the scent isn’t quite so over-powering. I find this works the best w/ Neroli, not quite so much w/ Chocolatini since that seems to have a lot more “staying” power. I haven’t tried any of the other scents. I’ll spray 4 sprays of Shine, wait a half hour, spray another 4 and then touch up w/ additional sprays if needed after another half hour wait. Then I’m not coughing at my own phero cloud either.:wink: Now that I know what gives me my shiniest moments :wink:, I order Shine in 2X so I can cut down the number of sprays I have to use. Next time, I’ll probably order the 4X. I must say though, for me the more sprays I use, the larger the phero cloud and the better the hits, IMO. Just gotta find the right balance of being a bit “fumy” vs. maximizing that phero cloud.

I know there are some here that have reported not getting anything from Shine so yeah, I think sometimes it just doesn’t work for someone because of their body chemistry, or maybe they need more than what they’re willing to use. And some have even reported using TAA instead of Shine because too much Shine gives them a headache. I only had that with the first few times I used it.

I’m glad it works for me cuz I LOVE that Shiny feeling!!:smiley::smiley:
