Is it ok for women to use instant shine? It looks amazing but says for men and I don’t want to emasculate myself with male hormones!
Instant Shine is a unisex social phero so you can use it just as much as the guys can
It was developed as a mens product but then they discovered women loved it too & that it was unisex. They kept the label on the IShine in the guys section of the store because the lads don’t like buying “girly products” ![]()
cool, thanks. better get some then! xx
Yes we women can use Instant Shine. In fact I would recommend it. I’ve always had great results with it.
Instant Shine is a great feel good mood enhancer and anyone can wear it.
Hey cellery sticks!
I’m also a new member here on the forums… and I think that you should definitely try Instant Shine! I definitely feel that it only enhances and amps up my female-ness!
My first order was this: Instant Sexiness A, Instant Shine (1x), Instant Honesty, free gift (thanks guys!!): Instant Gentleman ( haha, will find a way to use this :0) ).
Instant Shine is my favorite!!
It’s been almost one month since my first order, and since then I’ve ordered a second round of other products… but I haven’t even tested my other products properly because I love Instant Shine’s self-affects and they way it affects others so much… that I haven’t given the other sprays a good try on their own. With Instant Shine, the difference is totally noticeable when I wear it. I haven’t had such obvious results with the other sprays yet.
So I was too excited to do the recommended way of testing the products on myself when my order arrived…
The first day, I used 4 sprays (1 to front of the neck/chest, 1 to the nape of my neck, 1 on each forearm/wrist). Generally, good diffusion points. I immediately felt light-headed, a little dizzy, and energized after spraying. I kind of overdosed. The initial light-headedness lasted for maybe a few minutes. The new user shock/OD high lasted a bit longer. Start with less! It does smell like a men’s spray, though the scent itself faded some as the minutes passed. (After using it for a month now, after the initial sprays/fade it just smells ‘fresh’ to me.)
I was concerned that others would notice, but no one has made any comment about that. Two days ago, I sprayed it on my sister. The first thing she noticed was “it smells like it’s for men”. I stuck my nose right where i sprayed her… but I couldn’t smell it. I wasn’t wearing it myself at that time. So I don’t think I simply got used to the smell. I think it might just be something more noticeable to the person actually wearing it – or maybe the scent is mostly released at the spray site (like in my room, or if I sprayed myself in the car).
Anyway, so that first day, my co-workers stood extremely close to me (not usual) – we were standing shoulder-to-shoulder at one point though there was plenty of space around us! I felt that moods were lifted. My co-workers were acting more friendly and socially inclusive altogether. It had a very harmonious and friendly effect on everyone. It makes me feel alive and positive, myself at my best. For me, it’s an inspirational spray that unites. Helps with presence. A happy helper effect. More smiles. It was an idealist’s dream come true.
I was reading about the effects of MX135/MX235/MX335… and I feel that Instant Shine has actually given me similar effects. I had many ‘life of the party’ and ‘sunshine’ experiences just from using Instant Shine.
The forums say that TAA (feel good effect) is the main ingredient of Instant Shine.
I’m soo thrilled that it’s one of the lower-costing sprays. I don’t like to go out without it now.
This became such a long post. <3 for Instant Shine.
I think you should try it! :]
Thanks so much! I Definately wanna get me some of that!! Great to hear about your experiences. How long did you notice the effects last for?
It seemed when I sprayed it to my warmest points (front neck/chest, nape of neck) and the wrists, it didn’t last as long – maybe 3 hours (2-3 hours is listed as the typical range)? Too short, I know. Sometimes it seems to last longer.
I don’t want to carry the bottle in my bag, to avoid what would likely be an awkward discovery! So I sprayed/dripped some of the liquid into a mini bottle of lotion. I’m able to re-apply a little that way. Others on the forum have said that doing so can help to lengthen the duration of effects and slow down the diffusion. It does seem that people become partly conditioned to associating me with the effects during the rest of the day… even though the spray fades. But I do see an observable decline after a few hours.
I’m still testing it out. I’m thinking that spraying it to both good diffusion and slow diffusion points may help lengthen the duration.
Btw, I felt that 1 spray of Instant Honesty makes it smell more ‘feminine’ and seemed to be a good tail-end to the Instant Shine effects, making it seem to last longer. Instant Sexiness A smells good too. Perfumes or heavy scents can be overwhelming for me, but those two are good. I didn’t feel like I had to get used to the smell to enjoy them.
Nice report there. You should post your findings more often. I don’t think you can OD on instant shine. The effects you received with the dizziness happens to be normal and most have received it upon using it for the first time.
Your sister sounds like mine , when I smelled the shine for the first time ,the neroli actually smells more for men but when wearing it most persons compliment me on how good I smell. It could also be your sister has super sonic smelling. ![]()
Right now I get all my instant shine grapefruit scented as it relaxes me more and add to the whole effect.
Have you tried MX135, MX235 or MX335. I think you should grab a bottle when they come back in stock to compare. I figure with your obvious writing skills it will make for some interesting posts. ![]()
Yeah, Instant Shine was among the mones in my first order and I’ve been using it everyday since I received it. The smell kind of bothered me because I was (and still am sometimes) worried about other people being able to smell it because I don’t usually wear perfume. But no one has said anything about it, so it probably isn’t all that noticeable.
The first day I used it, it did seem that my coworkers were standing close to me, too! But I can’t say for sure because maybe it just seemed like they were closer than usual because I was conscious about my cologney fumes.
I really can’t say that I’ve had blatant hits with it, but I think I’ll continue to use it as a “base” pheromone. It can’t hurt.
Thank you Mickaelia
. I didn’t realize that I could get Instant Shine in grapefruit! That’s the Androtics scent that sounds most appealing to me. Have you experienced any differences in these versions aside from the scents? So far, no one has made any face expressions and no “why do you smell like guy’s body wash?” comments. I’m not worried anymore. Recently, a male co-worker got a big whiff of my Instant Shine – carried over to him with a gust of wind. He gave an enthusiastic compliment about my “perfume” along with a big, bright smile.
Also — what you say interests me – is there a reason why there isn’t such a risk of OD-ing on Instant Shine? Is it just such a low concentration? Is it the characteristic of TAA? Though, without knowing the actual contents of Shine, it does feel “safe & light” but very effective. Makes me interested in trying out a bottle of TAA. I can’t help but wonder if and how all of this experimenting with sudden, high doses of pheromones affects our health. !
I will post a new thread about experiences with MX135 and MX235 sometime soon! Still testing them. They were part of my second order
. But MX335 (grapefruit) was out of stock. Boo. : Will have to wait on that one.
Nehve1 – I know what you mean! Sometimes I cracked the windows when I was driving with a friend… Also, sometimes I’ve felt like I wanted to cover my neck when it seemed like my co-workers were engulfed in the Shine cloud.
Cellery Sticks - Have you gotten to try it out yet? (Edit: Hah, I just realized that your last post was only 6 days ago.) Well, looking forward to hearing about it!
Yep I got it! Only just started testing but I am pretty sure more people were looking at me in the pub than usual…i even noticed one girl looking at me with a questioning “what is it about her?” look in her eye. I’m focusing on instant honesty at the moment as i am wowed by how much its transforming my relationship. Do you know where is the best place to report experiences…should i be sticking to the womens forums or journal?
Haha, how exciting!
I like seeing the topics in its own thread in the women’s forum. Much easier to search. But they seem to quickly steer into so many new topics. A journal would be good. Eventually, I will try to do both. I haven’t dug through them much yet myself.
Hey Snuffy!
If you bought the big blue bottle of Shine, you can always buy an empty TOGO bottle on the Androtics Site. Just go to the section that says “Mixing Supplies” and they are there. They are cheap too. I keep little TOGO’s of various stuff in my purse all the time, slip into the bathroom & re-apply.
Glad you’re likin’ the Shine. I love it!
MY SHINE WEARING LOVELIES! I PUT SOME MX135 IN THE STORE. YOU MIGHT WANNA CHECK THAT OUT!![]()

Yup. When I first started using Shine, I even got a noticeable “crash” after it wore off about 2-3 hours after application.
