Hey, everyone. I’ve decided that I should start doing my part around here and making some reports. I know that the consumer products have been reported on a million times and that mine is probably useless, but please consider this a practice. I would love for you guys to tell me if I am doing something wrong or not doing something that I should be. Thanks! * * * [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) 1x 4 Sprays (2 on hair, 1 on each forearm) Hit #1: 2 Caucasian girls, age 20 Setting: Classroom Approx. 2 hours after application I was in class when these two girls who I know (they are friends) walk in together and sit next to me. One of them sees me and when she is about 5 feet away she seems very excited to see me (OMG HIIII!). It’s wierd because I see her every day. She sat behind me and throughout class she laughs at any stupid joke I make and seems generally happy. The other girl sat behind me to the left (diagnally) and seemed very tired (we need to get some **adrenali** none spray xD) and a little depressed. She was like that when she walked in; it was not the result of IS. Throughout the class she kept glancing at me and eventually she leaned over and drew a heart on my notebook and smiled. Hit #2: 1 Caucasian girl, also age 20 Setting: [different] Classroom Approx. 3 hours after application I was in a small group of 4 people and sitting across from the girl. She seemed happy and whenever I was banging on the desk (as in, rythmically) she would chime in. Eventually I put my head down and folded my arms and she wrote a whole bunch of … strange things on my arm (like If you want my number, [my cell phone number, not her’s], call me). I’m not sure what to make of this as it may have been just a joke but she has never done anything like that before. Hit #3: 1 Caucasian guy, age 20 Setting: [different] Classroom Approx. 4 hours after application Basically this guy was sitting in front of me and he kept tilting his head back to me and smiling. Not really a big deal but it was a little out of the ordinary. Although I got some hits here, I don’t think I have yet found my sweet spot. I think I need some more because I don’t think I was “pronounced” enough. I have only gotten a compliment on my smell once and it was when I was wearing a lot. * * * For some reason it does not seem long enough - was there something I left out? Anyway-completely unrelated to this, I have a theory about A314. Since it gives you that aura of dominance, I think it works very well when you are around other people who have more power than you, rather than the other way around. From my varied experiences, those who had power over me seemed a lot less dominant so it was easier to talk with them. If someone’s power is equal to or less than yours (your peers/co-workers) it seems that it draws them away. ---

Very interesting report, good detail, have you experienced anything else with A314? Smell, self effects? ---

I remember going for broke with Instant shine and had a hot caucasian lady among other things bend down to tie her shoe lace with out bending her knees giving me and my friend a full view of her butt 😮. As for A314 you mentioned it right, just how it’s supposed to work - put yourself up there with the big guys and scare away the equal or small guys. ---

> [@djandarial](#): > > Very interesting report, good detail, have you experienced anything else with A314? Smell, self effects? Well I am very fond of the A314 smell. I can only smell any of my products for the first half hour or so after I apply them. After then I have to really try hard. As for self effects, I seem to be somewhat immune to [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/). I’ve even tried taking a bunch of shine on my finger and putting it right below my nose and I don’t seem to feel anything. It is possible that I am inadvertantly doing things differently, but I definitely don’t get that strong, confident feeling that others seem to be getting. I am thinking about going for some 4x shine or something. Thanks for the compliments, everyone! Do any “pro’s” out there see anything wrong with it? I feel like it’s a new writing style or something that I have to perfect \>.\<
