I’m a 19 year old college sophomore in Massachusetts. I found this site through a little research. I’ve always had problems meeting girls and attracting them. So I was looking for a little advice and someone referenced Pherlure. After reading about that, I wanted to find out more about pheromones. Let me give you a little background on myself and maybe you guys could give me tips on which [pheromone products](https://a314.com/shop/) would work best for me. So I’m about 5’8" 150 lbs, not a particularly fit body at all. Throughout high school, I didn’t date much. I was very nervous approaching girls. I couldn’t really hold conversations with them about anything not including academics. I really lacked a lot of confidence in myself and my looks. Anytime I got close to a girl, it would only reach the friends stage. Since I arrived in college, things haven’t really changed much. I know that parties are a great place to meet girls. But anytime I go to parties, I tend to cling to my friends. I usually am afraid to approach girls because I lack confidence in myself. I realize that college parties make it easy to meet girls. But for me its difficult. I need a confidence boost and I really want to boost my appeal to girls. My biggest issues I feel are lack of confidence and nerves to approach and also communication issues. I’ve been looking through products on this site. And a few kind of caught my eye. Ammunition looks interesting. I also read about instant openness and instant honesty. Those all seem to pertain to my situation. Turn Up the Heat seems like a good product but I’m not sure I’m at that level yet. I’d really appreciate some input and feedback on what products you’d recommend for a 19 year old college student. ---

Hello AJ15 and welcome 🙂 [Pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/shop/) here are much better than pherlure, which many agreed to be nothing more than a scam. I would say that io can help you alot but keep the conversation going much longer and also helping you approaching women. Ammo would be great in attraction, and it will give you alittle more confidence too. ANother product that i will suggest will be ishine: it makes everyone happy and also give you some confidence, possible enough for you to start approach and initiating more. Let us know if you got more question or concern! ---

Hi, welcome to the forum. As Mockingbird sez, you may wish to skip looking at Pherlure. All of his suggestions are good ones, you can pick up Instant Honesty and [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) together in a single product called Come Talk To Me. I don’t think that one comes in a togo size, though. All of the products you mention come in Togo sizes, which are smaller, but also cheaper. Good luck with the girls and enjoy your stay… ---

Yeah, haven’t heard much good about Pherlure, which is why I made my way here to smartmones. So if I’m on a little bit of a budget, which products would be the best to use? Obviously, as a college student, I don’t have that much to spend. But at the same time, I want to get something effective and long-lasting. ---

Ammo comes in a Togo size, as does Instant Honesty, Instant Shine and [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/). You should get Ammo and any of the other ones that you feel will work best for you. Keep in mind that there is a minimum order of 2 Togo bottles. All of these will be very effective. They all last about the same length of time once sprayed, which is around 6 hours. BTW, I forgot to mention in my initial post, read through the links in my signature as well as the sticky threads found at the top of the Men’s section for additional suggestions on usage. ---

How’s it going buddy… I am also new to the pherotalk’s forum. I also heard about pherlure and I got crazy and bought a 3packs of them. I didn’t know wether the pehromones would work or not because with pherlure, around 50% of the people said it worked… and thank goodness it worked for me, but there was no “extra change”.. for example, I noticed girls wanted to hug me more and they also smiled at me more, but in fact, it was more like a soft type of pheromone. Now in this website, I found everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, satisfied with their products, so I didn’t even think twice and placed my orders.. and this whole thing is “to be continued..” lol… so yeah man, stick around and get some pheromones cuz they DO work… some Ammo and CTTM with A314 is what I’m going for.. and by the way, I’m also a sophmore in college… talk to you later and welcome to the forum bud ---

Cool. Thanks for all the great replies. I definitely think I’m going to get Ammo and I also feel that [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) really pertains to my situation and would help me address my approach weakness. A314 sounds good as well. But is it worth buying if I’m already getting Ammo and Instant Openness? Also it seems like Instant Shine is a confidence booster. Would that be worth buying? ---

Hi aj15ufmd - [Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) will help your situation more and give you more dramatic effects that will help you with your approach, and keep interactions going and in a good way. A314 is a fantastic product, but it is not really for picking up girls as such. Although it will help boost your attractiveness to girls, it could tend to make you unapproachable or a bit intimidating to most of them - although the classier the girl, the better it will work as an attractant. It projects a general high-status image which is useful in business, social and all sorts of contexts. But if you do not sort out your approach anxiety first, a good deal of girls will certainly not approach you wearing A314, as they’ll tend to think you’re some kind of bigshot or VIP and will be put off. ---

Would you use the Ammo with something else like instant shine or instant openness? Or does it work best on its own? ---

Oh, OK, you edited your post from A314 vs. Ammo. So my comments about A314 still stand, but it is a great product, although it has subtle and complex effects, being in oil form and being a proprietary blend of androsterone with other ingredients. Instant Shine is absolutely a confidence booster, and an uplifting phero product, I’d recommend this personally over [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) myself. I think Ammo contains alpha-androstenol already, so it must have a bit of the IO effect if it does - I haven’t tried Ammo though (someone correct me if I’m wrong). Instant Shine has a different molecule, TAA, which will work independently and make people want to be near you. It will give the impression of someone who it is good to be around, for any age, sex or demographic grouping you can think of. ---

Great. Thanks for the help man. I think I’ll get the Togo versions of those products and test out their effects and see if they work. ---

You cannot go wrong adding IS to Ammo, as long as you are careful with your Ammo dosage, being 19 years old, you could add Ishine all you like. It does smell… weird though, I have to say. But it works, and curiously, nobody ever remarks on the smell. ---

Hi Aj Welcome to Pherotalk 🙂 I think Ammo is a great place for you to start. Its a sexy confident mix and will help you to interact with the ladies more. Ishine works very well with it and many people report a boost in confidence when wearing these two products. I would also get a to-go of IH. I pick this one over IO because with your shyness it will help you make a connection with those your interacting with and add more comfort them IO which is more chatty fun. Keep in mind the mones wont do all the work for you. You still need to make a effort but they will make it much easier. There is alot of PUA info in the forum so be sure to read up on it to get some tips from the guys. If you have any questions just ask. We are looking forward to your participation in the forum. **Your GC will go out shorty** 😉 Have fun Tish ---

Can you wear Ammo, [Instant Honesty](https://a314.com/product/instant-honesty/), and Instant Shine all at the same time? Would these work for college parties? ---

> [@aj15ufmd](#): > > Can you wear Ammo, Instant Honesty, and Instant Shine all at the same time? Would these work for college parties? Yes, and yes. But you’ll have to do some experimentation with the ratios to find the right mix for you. Of course, if others have gone there before, things that have worked for them might well work for you too. ---

welcome aj15. Everyone on this forum is great and are willing to help. Most experienced great things and share what they got out of it to everyone. It is a great community. I have a similar problem as you as mentioned in your beginning post but im sure these pheremones can help out to lvl the playing field.
