Ok so here I’ll post my recent phero tests.

The last 2 days I used [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) 2X Strength  
Day 1: Yayy My first time, I sprayed one spray on my wrists and rubbed them together. when I first put it on for the first 5 minutes I felt normal. Then I felt a bit dizzy for about 5 minutes then a bit nauseous for a few minutes. Then I was fine. I didnt really feel more upbeat or anything . Well then I went to work and since Im in charge of a large warehouse there are alot of people to deal with. Well all day nobody was complaining around me which is very rare since Im the person people complain to. People were smiling more and being more polites. So day 1 it seemed like it does make people more upbeat and happy I didnt really notice much change in me since Im already a happy person. Oh and people kept rubbing their noses alot near me dont know if it was the neroli scent or if it was the pheros hitting them lol.

Day 2: Today I sprayed 2 sprays , 1 on my wrist and one on my neck and hair. There wasnt much of a big difference, not alot of people rubbing their noses like the day before, but they seemed to be nicer I heard a few complaints though but also got alot more smiles.

Thanks for sharing. 🙂

I never noticed nose rubbing before, could be the season. Has anyone made any comments on the smell? I feel once they are used to it, it will pass.

Your reactions will get better and stronger the longer you work with the products. Play with your application spots and dosage. I find my best application spot is my hair and neck but its different for everyone.

nobody said anything about the scent. I think it blends well with my natural scent since I didnt use anything else on top of it. Well see in the next couple days. Im trying Instant openess next.

</div>

Ok so here are some more results

Day 3:Instant openness - It was pretty interesting, I had more people get close and talk. Like I kept noticing usually talking with some friends when we sat down and there were several seats they kept choosing the one right next to me. Giving me like no personal space lol super close

Day 4:Instant openness - Had alot more personal talks and alot of direct eye contact. Its weird with humans how sometimes were not used to when people look you directly in your eyes for a long period of time. It was a little weird but interesting.

Hi Vivica!  
Monkeys, apes, chimpanzees etc. do not make direct eye contact either. They look up and down an individual quickly because eye contact is seen as a direct challenge. Notice how guys will sometimes stare each other down? Eventually, one will turn away, or look down uncomfortably. If this doesn’t happen, there’s a good chance of a physical fight to assert dominance. Shy people rarely make eye contact, presumably because they feel submissive in most situations.  
Humans are genetically wired to avoid eye contact unless they feel it’s necessary. Of course, we’re also emotionally-charged, and if someone is feeling particularly close to you, he or she will want to make eye contact as a display of intimacy (like how a couple can “gaze longingly into one another’s eyes”). Unless you’re comfortable with receiving this, or feeling equally close to someone at the moment, your genetic disposition will make you feel vulnerable. It can be registered as scrutiny.

I agree with Tealeaves.

Something I have been saying for the last couple of weeks (shut me up if you are sick of me on my soap box.) is…

When we use these [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/) we have to be prepared that people will relate to us differently. Tealeaves example of eye contact is probably the most significant change in our relationships with people when we wear these pheros. Lingering eye contact with strangers. It’s weird learning to accept alot of eye contact and TMI from people you don’t know that well (depending on your concoction du jour).

Doesn’t it seem like the world is a better place though - when people are opening up more?

I agree 100% that we have to be prepared, but we also have to make sure not to let it turn into “the pheromones made me do it”–which I’ll admit is a pet peeve of mine–primarily because while pheros can influence, they’re not magic potions and cannot control another’s actions. Not that I thought you implied otherwise, because you make a very strong point–I’m just adding some food for thought particularly for newbies. I think you’ve managed to graduate very quickly from phero-n00b status by the way, so congrats there. 🙂

Anyway, my point was–if a guy is _doused_ in -none and another guy punches him in the face, it’s still the assailant’s fault. Just as if you’re doused in cops and TAL or TAH, and some guy takes advantage of you, even though you may have done a stupid thing it’s still his fault. You didn’t bewitch the guy.

I would stretch that argument and say it also applies when someone does something to himself when you are wearing pheros–say you’re a cop/TAL bomb and you manage to seduce a guy who was very committed to his religious beliefs and was planning on waiting for marriage. Then the guy is racked with guilt and has this whole crisis of faith over it, and you feel bad because for you it didn’t even really mean anything. Still his fault, because he could have controlled himself no matter what you were wearing.

So, yes, we have to be very mindful of what we do with these lovely little bottles…but no one is really a pheromone victim, either.

yes its rather interesting to see the reactions. The eye contact was weird because the people Im around are all alpha self centered people who have barely any time to make eye contact according to them. I travel alot and sometimes it seems when dealing with strangers they dont want to make eye contact in general. I have a pretty sweet inviting personality although 98% of the time Im the female alpha of most of my settings. I only get the intimidated reaction from some females I guess its because of my confidence that I dont flaunt. Have you guys ever noticed that when you have inner confidence although you may not strut you get the most attention then? I know for me its when Im just the most happy that I get the most attention. If women only knew that happiness makes you the most attractive to the opposite sex and a sprinkle of pheros lol we could be in much better state of mind as women.

A male friend has expressed to me that he absolutely HATES it when girls put themselves down, that it’s such a big turn-off. Another male friend broke up with a girl because he “was more her therapist than her boyfriend.” My ex had once said while we were dating that he had been intimidated to ask for more than friendship because I seemed so confident and satisfied with life. In his eyes, my “value” increased because I acted like I was valuable.

I used to totally be the submissive type. Since I was younger, my personality has done a complete 180. I used to be that dorky girl (I’m still dorky, but I’m not THE dorky girl 😉) – glasses, braces (with really crooked teeth!), uneven bangs, socks pulled half-way up my calves (my mother tried so hard to break me of this preference… I didn’t know why at the time LOL) – well anyway, my personality and self-worth was what you’d assume, considering my appearance and how classmates regarded me. And don’t act like you lovely ladies didn’t laugh at that girl! She’s gone to school with all of you! Well, the point is, I’ve got a pretty good basis for comparing confident/insecure behavior, and how others react to both.

Well _let me tell you_, now that I’ve established a backbone (and learned to fold down my socks), I get a LOT more attention, and upwards of 95% of the time, it’s positive. Actually, the only people that I KNOW dislike me are a girl with poor self-esteem who thinks I’m a know-it-all (seems like jealousy) and an alpha, pushy girl who thinks I’m creepy and weird (I can’t explain this one… I suppose I must simply be creepy and weird).  
Well GUYS… whether they have confidence in themselves or not, they can’t help but be attracted, even if they aren’t necessarily _interested_ in you. I have a much larger percentage of guy friends now than I used to. I chalk it up to appreciating that I can take a joke, as my guys often comment on it.

Guys don’t want to deal with emotional issues. Who does? Girls have a higher tolerance because we’ve got that motherly instinct, but anyone can quickly exasperate their friends by going on and on about issues with themselves. Confidence is extremely attractive; I guess that’s why girls go for the jerks a lot of the time.

So, in the context of attracting guys, opportunities, and respect, appearing emotionally stable is your best bet. In the context of attracting friends, friendliness, and admiration of peers, appearing happy is your best bet. Add confidence and… well, to be happy and emotionally stable, you need to be confident 🙂 These are my observations, anyway.

I can’t wait to get my first shipment of pheros 😃 How drastically could they tip the scales? Ahhh, so excited!

(Anyhow, I need to shut up. Psychology is my chief interest right now, so I blame enthusiasm. Sorry if I rambled, and thanks to the person who had sent some reps my way for my last post 🙂 )

Hey - I didn’t laugh at you !!! I think I was in your group at school. You could have been describing me! Add to the mix EXTREMELY skinny, knock kneed 5’6" at the age of 10 (weighing 85lbs) oh and ugly.

I like to think we are called “Late Bloomers”. I am fitter, look better and dress better than when I was in my 20s.

Anyway, did I have a point here?

I totally agree with you about the confidence issue - there is nothing more attractive in both sexes.

However, it is fun to use the pheros as an experiment. I also agree with everything LaurieNY said too. I guess it depends on the attitude you are going into this with.

Now that I am here - at this site, I am hooked. I love the pheros, love the people. Hope you will too!

The whole eye contact thing is primarily a cultural thing. at least as far as I’ve noticed. I like to look people in the eyes as a form of interaction. when they avoid looking at my eyes (I mean they make an effort, both guys and girls) I feel as if they don’t like me at all or just don’t want to talk to me.  
I grew up in Africa and where I was it was a natural thing to look in someones eye’s when talking to them and recently I found a Haitian girl that noticed the exact same thing.  
Unfortunately it’s been hard to break the habit since moving to the USA and consequently I don’t have many close friends due to the eye contact thing (and other things too, but mostly the eye contact)

In most Asian cultures, it is considered extremely rude to make eye contact with someone you respect or someone of higher standing while speaking to them. It’s seen as a challenge. I know it is that way with Chinese culture. It’s kinda hard to tell with Asians cause some Asians who have been in the US a while do not or refuse to “assimilate” and still hold a lot of Asian influences.  
Also, Asian guys get majorly butt hurt about certain respect, saving face issues, etc. Just part of their culture and it depends how into it they really are. Generally though, I think its ok if you’re not Asian. I don’t think it’s expected for non-Asians to know it so there’s not much insult. And besides IMO, you’re living in America, learn the social norms instead of wondering why everyone is so rude to you. lol.

zeph,  
I don’t feel they’re being rude just shallow(and not shallow in a bad way)  
just different. If you traveled as much as I have after a while it’s hard to assimilate in a permanent manner. you should hear my accent-it shifts depending on which mood I’m in. however this is not the place to discuss cultural differences and assimilation.

oh the whole “learning the norms” thing was NOT directed at you. I just get annoyed by all the Chinese/Korean fobs who cry about how people don’t get them and how English is so hard and how they don’t know the norms of society. What I have to point out is this: THEY DON’T ATTEMPT TO LEARN THE LANGUAGE. They have these cliques where if you’re not korean/chinese and if you’re not a fob, they don’t accept you. They don’t talk to anyone who is not a fob and if they have to talk to someone thats not one of them, they’ll ask another korean or chinese person. They don’t ever attempt to speak english and will not do so unless necessary. In addition, they tend to be jealous of those asians who do get along well with other non-asians and those who can speak the language. Why do I know this? Cause I fukin over hear them and they assume I don’t speak chinese. I’ve gone to various parts of China: Beijing, HK, Macau, Harbin, QuinMing, and 3 other places that I forget the names to (or they don’t translate to english well like “zhong san”). Been to the richest parts of China and the poorest parts of China where they have sewage running down the streets cause they don’t have a sewer system and everyone is scared shitless cause they might die from some drug dealing gang. I’ve noticed this view or stance regardless of where it is. In China or in the US.  
_EDIT_  
Sorry, definitely off topic. Just wanted to clear that up.

I have to agree about the self confidence being an attraction. I have always had alot of self confidence and while the pheromones definately have improved some situations, like when I posted about going into Lowes the other morning, often I get complements and attention. I think just not to the extreme as with the pheromones. To me it seems like an extra “boost”, which at times can be great…And while I am blond haired, blue eyed and told often quite pretty, I am also overweight, which many people find a turn off. The people who know me tell me they dont even notice my weight. So for people who dont “know” me, my weight has to be"out there" yet I get positive responses from most people. I attribute this to my attitude, my self confidence and that generally I dont think and dwell on my weight. Also that I have very thick skin and if they did make a comment I could really care less…I am me, and that is that.

[Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/): Well I can say I think this made me feel more perky early in the morning. I was tired and then about 30-45 minutes later I was really happy and laughing and giddy. I know it had to help some because I was feeling especially tired and didnt want to be bothered with.

Instant Honesty: It was funny I had people talking ALOT to me. I actually had a friend follow me around everywhere I went. I mean Im friendly lol but it was a bit of stalking lol. I even had to stop and ask why she was following me around. It was hilarious

Instant Sexiness:hmm hmm yum yum made me feel great , I had a nice extra strut in my step. I got alot more looks but that may just be my confidence. I’ll have to test this one out a few more times when looking a little less dressed to strut to see if I get the same effect.

@Scarletgal: You know I dont think men care as much about our weight as we do. Im proud to have some thick curves and every guy I’ve known I’ve converted to be a curves lover if they werent already. Thats good you have great confidence. Like I said before confidence and of course us women keeping ourselves looking our best. Lets be real ladies we have to keep ourselves at our best level for ourselves, because when we feel good its a ripple effect and we find happy people are drawn to us. I get so tired of the woman who does things only to get a man. I think women should make themselves their best for themselves and the rest will follow.  
I’ll post some more results later. Now I just gotta buy a few more different ones and see what fun I can get into.
