Yay!! I got my order today! I started out with my Instant Shine, two sprays to my neck and one straight to the face (eyes shut tight!)
I felt a little loopy at first, kinda drunk I guess. But within about 10 minutes I just felt like smiling, for no reason! Kinda like when you try to make your Barbie mad and yell at Ken, and she just keeps that goofy smile the whole time! Yep, that’s me right about now!
I think I’m gonna like wearing this out in public.
I also got a free Instant Honesty (very much appreciated ) but I’ll have to try that later on it’s own before I mix them.
I had on some mx235 yesterday, just one spray to each inner elbow, and my sister came in and hugged me! It was unusual for her, we are very close, but not in the kind of huggy-lovey sister way, you know? It was nice!
Your daughter got her first hits too, that’s a memory to treasure for both of you (even though it was 'mones induced, I’m sure it just made the guys blurt out what they were too shy to say normally).
I loooooove reading your journal (and the replies to it).
Footnote to Tisha: LOL on your mom making out with your dad after using your cops lotion!
So I didn’t use anything today. I was babysitting my neice (5 months old)and I didn’t want to freak her out by messing up the smell she’s used to. But I have BIG plans for the weekend!
Hi everyone! I was wondering if you all could help me with something? I am finding it difficult to cover my cops! I have neroli IS/b with 5x cops and my mom and daughter make me feel horrible when I wear it because of the smell. :o
I sprayed one spray to my neck, just for practice this morning. I waited 15 minutes and then sprayed on some Warm Vanilla Sugar body spray from B&BW. But the cops are still coming through. Could it be that my body spray is just not strong enough, maybe not as strong as a regular perfume?
Hiya Daisy,
Nice journal. Funny too! (And great taste in designers! Wish I could afford Marc Jacobs.)
To answer your question about cops (since I’ve made just about every mistake humanly possible with them–except for spilling them in an underwear drawer, which really did happen to another girl) I’d say that you are totally right in your conclusions. Body spray is too light for this particular job. To cover cops you want at least an eau de toilette or eau de parfum strength.
Also, I find that applying cops to my forearms is the easiest method. That way, I can smell what everyone else is smelling and I can wash off the cops if my plans change–or if I suddenly realize I do not want to attract a particular guy in that way. And I apply the socials (Instant Shine, Instant Honesty) to my hair and or neck.
I can Identify girrrrrl!..I have IS/B 5xcops chocolatini and it still doesn’t smell good…when I use it my daughter says the room smells like skunk poop(whatever that smells like lol)…I find it difficult but it is doable…very important to do a good thorough dry down, maybe more than the 15-20 min…maybe more like half an hour, and the cover. I have found scents that cover but they come from another site that I am pretty sure we are suppose to mention here…I have found that bodycology’s vanilla amber musk is really heavy and covers very well for me. I have it in lotion and purse size body spray(so I can touch up intermittently if need be)
Dry down is essential, sometimes 10 mins isn’t enough so take your time when you want it to dry down, there are times where I’ve been sitting in the balcony for 45min so the stank would get “mixed” with nature’s air instead of my bathroom.
So I took y’all’s advice, both with stronger perfume and a longer dry down, and it totally worked!
Yesterday, I used three sprays of IS/b 5x cops, one to neck/chest area, one each to inner elbows. Then I waited 30 min. (I got antsy and couldn’t wait any longer ) and applied three drops of phero girl, the same yummy honeycomb that Selva has, one drop to each of the IS/b points. I didn’t use anything else because I really wanted to test my cops. I’ve been too self conscious to wear them lately in this heat! :o But I guess pg has some EOW in it right?
Anyway, I smell amazing, seriously can’t believe that the cops aren’t coming through so I keep sneaking sniffs of myself!
I go to my favorite coffee shop to meet a friend, and she is late as usual. We always have the same waiter, and I have been crushing on him for so long now! He usually just asks me if I want anything while I’m waiting, but saves the convo for my friend when she finally shows up. But this time he sat at the table with me! He kept checking on his other tables and then coming right back. When we were leaving, he touched my arm and said “You’re a little goofball! Why haven’t we hung out more?”
I was on cloud nine! OMG, he called me a goofball…ME! Yeah, it’s not exactly a romantic little pet name, but it made me feel good all the same!
I LOVE my IS/b!
haha sry i missed to give u an advice on how to cover cops.. but it seems like the girls have done a wonderful job! im so so glad u smell good now
and yes, TAH and cops can be a good combo, though TAH hasnt worked on my TG that well.. but congrats on seducing the waiter it’s really hard to get them to talk to u since they dont want to get fired, soooo u must be good
Tealeaves, yes. I did spread it out over the previous points. It’s an oil base and I hate to let it just sit there, I’m afraid it will get rubbed off!
So I had a really sweet instant shine moment today. I used 6 sprays (yeah, I went all out ) two to each side of my neck and one each to my inner elbows. I didn’t use a cover because I am actually starting to like the neroli scent. It was really hot this morning so I was fanning myself a lot. So I’m sitting on a bench waiting for my daughter and this little old man comes up behind me and sniffs really loudly! I turned around and smiled at him and he sat next to me. He said that I smelled just like his wife and he had to get closer. He said “She always had a bit of an orange smell to her, I think it was her shampoo” He said he missed that smell, they were married for 65 years and she passed away three years ago. So he sat and told me all about her and their time together and I actualy cried a little, he was so sweet! It was great, I loved listening to him talk. After about 30 minutes his daughter came to get him, said she had been looking for him all over and commented on how he is usually so surly and doesn’t speak to anyone, he just kind of grunts. I was very touched that he shared with me.
There was no wind, but it was an outside setting so it may not have been the pheros, maybe just the smell.
Now that’s what pheromones are for, IMO. It’s not just about us getting attention and promotions and freebies. Pheromones are also about making others happy. I am so glad you had time for that old man, MyDogDaisy.
XOXO Kitten
