When wearing a new mone product for the first time, ALWAYS start solo. Wear one product by itself for 2-3 weeks, or however long it takes, in order for you to get a good understanding of how it works and what effect it has on you as well as others.

Here's a good methodology to employ to do such testing. Dose refers to a single dab, drop, spray or 6" from a roller-top bottle, depending on your mone product:
Week 1: 1 dose per day (test for results)
Week 2: 2 doses per day (compare results, test for overdose)
Week 3: 3 doses per day (compare results, test for OD)

And so on. It is also good to take one day off each week from mones. This could be any day, depending on your preference and the type of mone product you're testing. Expect to go through a full bottle of product before you have a good understanding of how it works.

Keep increasing by 1 dose each week until you OD. Then you'll know your sweetspot for for the product.

Keep a written record of your findings. You may find, for example, that 2 doses gives you good results and 3 doses gives you the same results without OD, but 4 doses is OD. That means your sweetspot is 2 doses, not 3.

If, during your testing, you find that X doses on Day 1 gives you good results but the same X doses on Day 2 gives you an OD-type reaction from others, that means that the product is building up on your skin instead of breaking down overnight.

In that case, do X-1 doses on Day 3 and test for results. Do X doses on Day 4, see if you OD. You may have to vary your dosages depending on how each product reacts with your body chemistry.

If X=1, this means Day 3 would be a moneless day - see what happens. Some mones are known to hit hard the day after.

The positive effect of testing in such a structured way is that when it comes time to run combos, you'll be in a much better position to tweak dosages to achieve desired results quickly.
