Hey guys

Well, I’m usually the type to lurk around a forum and never introduce myself, which is what I’ve been doing here for the past few months. I’ve enjoyed researching and reading up on pheromones for a while, but this place has always managed to be my number one source of information :slight_smile:

A little bit about myself? Well, I’m a young lady (under 20 years old) livin in good old New York. No, I don’t live in the big apple - I couldn’t stand living in the city! But the suburbs here are nice, and that’s where I plan to stay. I’ve always been a rather skeptical person myself, but at the same time, I’m incredibly curious about the stuff that most people are too skeptical to experiment with. I don’t want to just come here, pick up some Instant whatevers (sorry, I’m a newbie :stuck_out_tongue:) and be off on my merry pheromone induced way - I’m looking to experiment, observe, and reasearch as well.

Now, I always knew about pheromones in animals, cause that’s the sort of thing most people know about, right? I always wondered, though, if humans had the same capabilities. So I started researching that, and eventually I came to wonder if these things could be extracted and used to our advantage: and so on and so forth until I ended up here. After lurking for quite a few months, I figure it’s about time I take the plunge, introduce myself, find out what’s right for me and buy it!

Basically, I am a shy person around new people. I hate going to parties, I hate going to places where I have any chance of embarassing myself in a social situation. But around my friends, I’m comfortable and apparently hilarious. Not a day goes by that I don’t make somebody laugh. Humor has simply been my way of getting through whatever hardships I’ve had to endure thus far in life, and I don’t plan on losing my sense of humor anytime soon. I’m really great at putting people at ease and making them laugh and making them like me once I get the courage to talk to them.

I guess what I’m looking for is something to put me at ease in my own skin, something that will help open the doors to communication so that people will see me for who I really am. No matter where I am: work, school, out on the town, I am mostly ignored because I want to be ignored because I’m afraid that I’ll accidentally say something to embarass myself. I’m just a nervous, anxious person.

From what I’ve read about, I’m guessing my goal is something like Instant Shine or Instant Openess, but to be honest, those are just guesses. In addition to that, I have no idea how much to use or where to use it, so any tips on that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for giving me such valuable and easily accessible information, guys :smiley:

hey there and welcome!
I’m sure a lot of people can relate to the way you are socially. Part of it is going to be to break out of that a bit and try being a bit more outgoing to people you may not know as well.

IS and IO are great places to start. IS gives off a fun youthful playful vibe that people just love to be around. It can raise your spirits as well. IO makes people more comfortable around you and can make people chatty as well.

Let us know how things go!

Hello Lauren,

Welcome to the forum.

Id have to say that the 2 products you mentioned would be where i would suggest to start.

IS and IO ar 2 great products to increase your socialability. They can help you feel a bit more confident in conversation. The thing is, you have to want to try to be social, and judging by the fact that you came here looking for help with that suggests you are ready to. Sometimes you just have to say f*ck it im gonna talk to these people. Judging by what you you said you have a great sense of humor and warm up to people, so thats a great thing. Hopefully these products can assist you in being more social.

Good luck. Ill be pulling for you.

Again welcome

Well thanks for the warm welcomes! I have a couple more questions, now that I’ve recieved my certificate and am about to order.

I typically wear some sort of scent when I go out - nothing heavy, usually just some light perfume or hand lotion or something that smells nice. Do the pheromone sprays have their own perfumy scent, or are they more of a scent that should be left to dry, then covered with something else? If I cover a pheromone’s scent, will it lose its effectiveness?

Thanks for the answers, sorry for being such a noob :smiley:

Hi Lauren, welcome to Pherotalk! :slight_smile:

The default scent is Neroli (I believe there’s also a slight blend of essential oils? I may be wrong) in a 6% fragrance because it acts as a binder for the mones and is highly diffusive. Personally, I don’t like it, because it smells too strong and masculine on me, but others here love it or find it not so bad. It is fairly co-operative, I’ll give it that :smiley:, so if you don’t mind the scent blending in with your perfume, just spray straight after application. Or, you can wait for the 10~20 minute dry down, when it’s less noticeable, and put on your perfume then. You should know, though, that putting on perfume or lotion or other scents will probably affect the diffusion of the pheromones. Not necessarily lose its effectiveness, but you might want to run a few forum searches on this topic. Anyway, once you start getting serious with the reporting - MXs, and Putatives and such - it is recommended that you go and test with just that product alone, at least at first. You can also get custom fragrances on some of the 30ml bottles - Grapefruit, Cookie, Chocolatini, Coconut Vanilla, etc.

Here is a link that you may be interested in! How to find your sweet spot...
As for application points - try hair, front/sides/back of neck, inner crook of your elbows, wrists, behind knees, armpits, top of head - the possibilities are endless, so you need to find out what works best for you. Pulse points are generally a good idea, though. :slight_smile:

Either way, I hope you have a blast! Please do let us know all about your experiences, and I invite you to come and post in the Women’s forum in particular. Good luck, and I hope to see you around. :slight_smile:

Welcome to Pherotalk Lauren!

Feel comfortable in your skin as a women. Let me tell you that is want most of us want.

Instant shine makes you feel refreshed and really good. I recommend this because of the self effects, the effects it has on others. In addition it goes well to enhance all your other products.

Instant sexiness/b is for that soft , girly type female and I believe this will do well for you. It does not make you feel diva confident but comfortable. Like you want to be comfortable but pretty and I like the feeling when I wear this.

Let us know how these worked for you.

Your gc was issued! :smiley:

Thanks for the warm welcomes guys! I ordered some stuff, and I’ll be sure to let you all know how it goes :slight_smile:
