I recently picked up a taa 5mcg. strength to see if taa was my migraine culprit in instant shine. And nope it isn’t! I loved the taa self affects I felt uplifted and caught myself overly feeling good for what is going on in my life several times. I applied about 30 mcg. and was expecting to experience one hell of a migraine and nada. I was bebopping along to the music in my truck, happy go lucky to cart my lil sister around and generally in a great! mood. It has been hours and I’m still feeling it and posting up the forum like crazy. 😃

So why is it that instant shine is a brain splitter for me and taa is not? What is causing the pain? Would say 2 sprays of instant shine contain more taa than 30mcg.? I plan to up the dose to 60 mcg. my next wear.

I am glad your not getting headaches with TAA. I do recall Michael saying it Ishine was altered TAA. Maybe whatever the altering is, that is doing it with Ishine.

I would so not be here anymore if it were due to neroli in the instant line. Instant shine is the only product that brings on a migraine.

Experimones have an option to add scent, I choose to leave experimones unscented to avoid overload when wearing them paired with scented products.

Howdy nbully,

I played with a higher dose of taf several months ago, here is the url to the post. I didn’t experience a headache while wearing it, is there taf in instant shine? [Sunday on TAF](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/sunday-on-taf/5479)

I do like to use a low dose (10-20 mcg) of taf with of my combo wears, I call it oomph but after reading Visionary’s compilation and thinking of the increased eye contact I experienced maybe there is more to it.

Given TAF’s mix brightening effects, I suspect TAF might be included in all of instant line products to help users notice hits easier. I wonder what else you could be reacting to. 😕

I wish I knew, it isn’t an ordinary headache it is full on migraine with pain and light sensitivity that occurs at least 8 out of 10 instant shine wears. I don’t get the feel good affect from ishine either.

Honestly, I started with a sample size of regular strength Shine and then bought a TO GO size of double strength Shine, and it never did anything for me, either. _shrug_

Ditto…

I did the same thing Laurie. I actually get a dulling kind of head with it, not exactly a headache, definitely not shiny and nothing like Inkling described.

Same here. First togo in regular strength, second in double to see if I _needed_ more. Glad you’re both not getting the headache it is a beast.

There are several posts across the forum of me being whiny 'cause I wasn’t feeling shiny. Now I have a better idea of what that shiny feeling is. 🙂
