I have been testing those two extendo version for 2 months now, and posting results in my journal. So i think it is time to finalize a report here since less people read journals 🙂

I believe that mx288 works better than mx289. It last a little longer (perhaps up to 1 hour) and i can see more obvious “happy and carefree” hits. But by no means mx289 is bad, the difference is subtle enough.

The optimum dosage for both are 1.5 to 2 sprays.

I tried to blind test them, but taking off the label and put a sticker on bottom, so i only know which is which after coming home and verify (one bottle is randomly chosen and tested, and put in certain location so i can know which is which after).

I can tell which version i used about 70% of the time, not perfect but satisfactory since they are very similar.

Here are some older posts from my journal (long dont need to read 😃)

> Thx everyone for the kind words and encouragements! My cast is tiny, so it doesn’t affect typing too much, at least im getting used to it fortunatly!
> 
> Today i went to a local coffee shop with a couple of friends and my gf too, i had 1 and half spray of Instant Shine 2.0. I really got a lot of attention and stares with smiles, and im pretty sure it is not for the pinky. The effects are much more desirable than the ones from taa oil. The barista whos a late 20s brunette gave me a big long hug, which dont often happens 😉 Btw, for some of u who are curious, my girl trust me and things like that doesn’t annoy here, fortunatly!
> 
> I wasn’t sure how much longer this would last more than the regular version since i dont have that, but im sure that the effects are fully present for at least 3 hours, and they are much more fun and better than even 3 drops of taa oil 😃 Instant Shine 2.0 has the ability to draw people closer to you, more than any other products ive tried.

> Ok as for Instant Shine test extendo, i still like 2.0 a little bit better. It seems to last a little longer (about 30min to 1 hour longer than 2.1). 2.1 on the other hand, has little stronger effects, and possible farther diffusion range. But Instant Shine 2.0 seems to be more effective in getting more smile and flirts with women, and sometimes even sexual interest.
> 
> I usually only wear 1 or 2 sprays of either 2.0 and 2.1. That seems strong enough already

> Btw, i went pherofree for like 3 days, hoping that this break will help me improve my experiments and prevent any plateau 😃

I have MX289 and I am using it pretty much every day at 1-2 spray. Haven’t noticed a big difference to using regular [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) except I have seen ‘Shine’ hits many, many hours after application. For example today I applied it at 12.15 pm and definitely received ‘Shine’ hits (usually people making a fun, silly comment/joke 😛) at 5 and 5.15 pm. This is pretty impressive work given that its primary active molecule, TAA, is so fast diffusing. The Extendo is working in that regard so far 🙂
