Hey guys, i’m looking for some help on using Instant Gentleman, Instant Openness (2x), and Instant Shine (2x). I’m still kinda new to all this, so I ordered these three about a week and a half ago. I started testing out IG first, starting with 2 sprays (one front of neck, one on wrist then mixed together with other wrist)…then further upping the sprays as the days went on. My main spray-points were at the wrists, and on each side of the neck. I then tried throwing IO into the mix, again starting with fewer sprays and working them up as the week went on. Yesterday was perhaps my biggest dosage, as I had 4 sprays of IO(2x) (one in front of neck, left wrist, right wrist, and one in hair), 3 of IG (each side of neck, and the crooks of my arms), and 2 of IS (2x) in my hair…and I still haven’t seen any results.
Now, I understand that results are subtle, and it’s still 90% me and 10% pheros, but I really didn’t see anything noticeable happen. I did try to
match what the pheros are supposed to do…I smiled and tried appearing and friendly and open as I could through my body-language. I certainly didn’t feel any self-effects at all, which I was kinda disappointed by. I’m a shy person, and I was hoping the IO would help me open up more (I even put a dab of it under my nose, hoping that would help). There was one day I did 2 sprays of Instant Shine (2x) to my hair, but no one around me seemed particularly more up-beat than usual, nor did I.
As far as my testing goes, i’ve mainly worn it at work (around guys I feel pretty comfortable with as it is) so maybe they weren’t the best people to be testing around, as we all are already open to talking with each other. I also wore the combos while running errands…there was this one instance where I was at the bank, with a gorgeous teller making my deposit for me. I had applied IO at the wrists and IG at the arms probably a half an hour beforehand, too…and I kinda placed my arms on the counter right under the glass where they slide you your slip. Besides the common “How are you, what can I help you with, have a good day” type pleasantries, she didn’t really seem anymore talkative than she needed to be. Same thing with at Best Buy; I was wearing IO and IG around the cashier ringing me up, and again, no talk outside of her doing her job.
I’m certainly not trying to make a “ARGH these don’t work!!!” type post…i’ve read the many great hits that members here get, and i’m hopeful for those kind of results too. I know i’m not supposed to expect anything too ridiculous; I do understand that pheros are only roughly 10% of the equation when dealing with people, and maybe things might have gone a bit better if I had actually manned-up and initiated some conversation…but again, i’m really shy around new people, and I was just hoping that people would be more willing to kick-start some small-talk or something. I was just hoping for something a bit more noticeable and “out of the usual” you know?
Is it possible that these particular pheromones don’t mesh well with my body chemistry? Has something like that ever been reported or documented? Does anyone have any tips (application points, dosages, anything?) on how I can use these products a little more effectively?
Thanks a lot, I really appreciate any help.
