Gabe,
i think i see your

problem...you have hit on the a314/npa as a good combo at times...but the npa is waaayyyy tooo strong for daily use

like you are using it unless you exfoliate big time...you need to try the edge ( diluted npa ) and apply a dab with

the a314...whats happening is you are massively oding...hence the disdain...

NPA is just too strong to be used

with a dab or two everydya..the mones last too long from it...

i tried the edge gel packs with a314 and it

worked great..i used 1/2 gel and that got the attention going along with respect factor..

NPA is like a pancea

and many folks on this forum get this one wrong...npa works great as dabs the first time you use it..but the next

day, you are in od land..its too strong...

the edge is what needs to be dabbed, its way diluted but the same

stuff...

you shoudl get some soe and wear that alone with the a314 for awhile and leave the none off...see what

reactions you get then...then gradually introduce a bit of none..you are none oding...classic case
