Hello!! I was so excited to get my Instant shine 2x in the mail today and i thought it would be a good idea to share my experiences and maybe get some tips from others!!? I am 18 years old, in the middle of my freshman year at college. I am in pretty good physical shape. I have a “curvy” body, as in I have full hips and a bust. I am a healthy weight and run or do cardio at least 3 times a week. I’m not really sure if I want a long relationship. If the right guy comes along, then great! But if not, I may just want to take advantage of my youth. Day 1 Amount- One spray of IS double strength Location- I first applied lotion to the base of my neck and chest and waited for it to dry, then i sprayed once where the lotion had soaked in. (I did not cover the IS with another scent) Within a min I began to feel giddy and confident. My heart was racing and I felt like I could have ran a mile! (Maybe its good to use before I go to the gym?!) I left to meet my friend for smoothies not even 10 mins after I applied IS. I walked in and felt so calm and happy. Its kinda like the feeling of falling in love! I noticed nothing out of the ordinary. In line, an older guy with a kid double checked when he saw me and smiled, but looked away quickly. But it was so slight I can’t attribute it to the IS. If it matters, he was Indian. The friend I met did nothing out of the ordinary. I was in a pretty good mood and was conversational, but she didn’t treat me any differently than she usually does. By the time I left the store I had crashed. The high that I felt earlier fell. I felt a little depressed even. As the day went on I balanced out and took my dogs for an awesome long walk. I felt energetic again and was basically back to normal. So what do you think? Wear more? Different location? Different technique? My good mood today could also be attributed to being asked out to a second date with this guy I’m interested in! We’re gonna see a movie tomorrow night and I think its the PERFECT opportunity to test this stuff for real! =P Advice please?! ---

Have you tried your sweet spot testing yet? People who are familiar with our usual mone cloud often take longer to show recognition of hits when we start using, IME anyway. My personal preference is neck first, cleavage second and usually dab the residue from the neck on pulse points of wrists & inner elbows. How did your date go??? 😉 ---

Hey Gingiber! Thanks for the tips. I’ll try your method out today and see what happens. Is the sweet spot universal for everyone, or is it just experimental? Day 2 Amount: One spray of IS on each side of my neck, then one spray on each wrist. (after applying lotion) Today, I found the smell a little unpleasant and strong, so i covered it with something else. Besides being nervous already for my date, spraying the IS made me feel like I was on a caffeine high. I was almost shaking! BUT, I gave myself a pep talk before my date picked me up, and trekked on. 😛 He seemed a little standoffish at first, but that could have been because he was nervous too. I’ve read in other posts that too much IS can make others intimidated by you. I was watching him for signs of being star struck, or see if he was glancing at me more, but from what I could tell he wasn’t. 😕 He put his arm around me during the movie and we ended up kissing, but I can’t say that wouldn’t have happened without the IS. There weren’t many other people in the theatre, considering it was late on a thursday night. Everyone I did come across seemed to act in the usual manner. Sooo thats it so far! I’ve heard from other posts too that it takes a sort of “baptism” in [pheromones](https://a314.com/) to get results if you are using for the first time. So I will keep trying! To me, the physical and psychological response I get from myself shows me this stuff does SOMETHING. I’m just waiting for someone around me to feel it too! 😛 ---
