So, what really is the main difference here? I understand that one is supposed to bring just general conversation and IH is supposed to bring more depth of conversation.
I noticed I have a lot more conversations with IS than without it. So is it similar to Instant Shine?
I ordered IS/A (tried the B) and IO and got instant honesty as a free gift. (Totally loving these free gifts!)
I’m guessing combining Instant Shine with either the Instant Openness or Instant Honesty isn’t that great of an idea?
Instant shine contains TAA, the others don’t. According to Mike Harris: TAA creates a physical proximity reducing effect - a very physical, rather than emotional effect. It can create a fun high and silly vibe but it has no depth. TAA tends to create mental distance for the wearer. It is a terrific attention getter and is intended to be worn in social situations and in public.
In my own experience, TAA also effects the visual processing centers or pathways of the brain, reducing the effectiveness of the usual visual noise filters. The effects are more detail being noticed, more color, more light. Things really are shinier.
Instant Shine contains TAA, TAF, and one other undisclosed pheromone.
Instant Openness is heavy in Alpha Androstenol and it is one of the the Chatty Kathy’s of the group of social pheromonal products from Androtics. I rarely wear it alone because I have ADD and the effects on others of causing non stop chatter with little filtration and very little in depth of content makes me want to jump out of my skin. It is a terrific product for breaking the ice in social situations, promoting light camaraderie and a chatty, light vibe. The heavy Alpha Androstenol in this mix promotes talking and makes you feel good while doing it.
Instant Openness is a 70/30% mix of Alpha/Beta Androstenol and other undisclosed pheromones.
Instant Honesty is heavier in Beta Androstenol than Instant Openness. Beta Androstenol is a funny critter. Some people report that worn alone, it promotes heavy thinking. I don’t experience this aspect wearing it alone. I’ve tested Beta Androstenol from 10.0 mcg up to 150.0 mcg. I find a relaxing effect, and I’ve worn it as a sleep aid. For me Beta Androstenol promotes deep feelings of trust and security, especially in high doses. At over 100.0 mcg it lends itself to some very deep and mystical feelings. Beta Androstenol seems to have an emotional self-protection threshold lowering effect, and it calms the ego.
With Instant Honesty the pheromonal mix tends to promote more deep conversations and the sharing of “truths” that wouldn’t necessarily be shared normally. When I’ve worn it, both my husband and I have easily shared things with each other that would have been very uncomfortable to talk about without the Instant Honesty. And it has lead to a profound deepening of our relationship and level of trust in each other.
My husband has told me that when he wears Instant Honesty at work it is easier to get to the bottom of problems, because his people tend to be more honest, and less self-protective. He wears it in conjunction with A314 and P93.
Others have reported that when wearing Instant Honesty in a social context, they’ve gotten insults from others who were saying things that were uncomfortable to hear. Wearing Instant Honesty alone, one user reported being told she was fat by an acquaintance she wasn’t close to, and generally insulted by some other people. So maybe Instant Honesty worn alone is not a really good choice for a social mix.
Instant Honesty is a 70/30% mix of Beta/Alpha Androstenol and other undisclosed pheromones.
So, to reprise, Instant Shine has that glowy, silly, attention getting quality the others lack. Instant Openness makes people very talkative but with little depth. Instant Honesty does what the name implies, opens conversations to deep subjects, but is not as chatty, and isn’t silly.
