Hey guys, just a couple of quick questions, hopefully you guys have an answer - (seem to know pretty much everything!) 1. I’ve decided I want to order [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/). I’ve read a lot of comments about needing to use a lot of it as it’s affects wear of quickly. I was thinking that as it doesn’t seem to have offensive pheromones in it - i.e. should not OD through using it - that it would be more cost effective to start with the double strength version and just use less sprays by applying more effectively. Is there any danger or disadvantage to starting at double strength or would this be a good idea? 2. I live in the UK, near London have read a few scattered comments about additional taxes / import costs. Anyone order from the UK who could give me any idea of the likelihood of additional charges and a ballpark estimate of the charges if applied? 3. I was thinking of trying a combination of - InstantShine / InstantHonesty / InstantGentleman (once I’ve practiced with each individual product obviously) I was curious if the gossipy nature of InstantHonesty would conflict with the mature authoritive nature of InstantGentleman? I would image that these two specific products would be good together because their effects don’t have to conflict however with some other products I could see a confliction, does this happen? Are there particular pheromones mixes that should be avoided? (Beyond obviously just OD’ing on the aggressive male pheromones!) Thanks guys and gals! 🙂 ---

Is there any danger or disadvantage to starting at double strength or would this be a good idea? Normally we tell people to start out with the normal strength but its ok with Ishine to get X2. I find the effects to last 4 to 6 hours myself. > [@](#): > > 1. I live in the UK, near London have read a few scattered comments about additional taxes / import costs. Anyone order from the UK who could give me any idea of the likelihood of additional charges and a ballpark estimate of the charges if applied? UK members could anwser this better but if you concerned about custom fee’s ask in the note section of your order to write gift on the package. They try to accomadate people who do. I know they used to put some candy in with certain orders to make it look like a gift. > [@](#): > > 1.

Its brings out deeper conversation and a feeling of intimacy. IG and IH should be fine together. Thee are no real reported conflicts with the consumer line. However you would want to avoid wearing products that contain all the same thing as to not over do the same mones over and over. Example It would be overkill on the anol to use IO spaceland and CTTM together It would be unbalanced or A314 IG IFM and AMMO That would be to masculine You want to look for balance… Masculine + Social + mood enhancing = good mix 😉 Tisha ---

Are there particular pheromones mixes that should be avoided? (Beyond obviously just OD’ing on the aggressive male pheromones!) IMO, Instant Honesty isn’t gossipy at all. You’ll fall into much deeper conversations than gossip. I haven’t yet tried Instant Honesty and [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/), but I have experience with both. From my experiences I would expect Instant Honesty to work exteremely well with Instant Gentleman. Also, Instant Gentleman isn’t that authoritative. A314 is more of a ‘authoritative’ product. IG is much warmer and friendlier than a314. If I were a shy child, I would much rather talk to an IG wearer than an A314 wearer. Sometimes contrasting products can be used together to create a more balanced combination. I originally felt that Instant Gentleman’s more mature vibe might conflict with p74’s light, breezy vibe. It turns out that they blend together, uplifting the IG and grounding the p74. There are no mixes/combos that should be outright avoided. However, there are certain mixes/combos that should be avoided if you are looking for specific results - which mixes/combos to avoid are case dependant. However, there are also general guidelines for dosage (such as not too much -none) that you can follow.
