Create strategic sequences of additives to transform low-value effects into premium ones through multi-step conversions.
Result: Cyclopean +460% Value Increase
Why This Works
Each additive in this chain strategically transforms the previous effect into a more valuable one. The initial Calming effect (+10%) is converted to Bright-Eyed (+40%) and finally to Cyclopean (+56%), resulting in a mix that's worth 4.6x more than the original with just two additives.
Instead of adding additives randomly, plan your strategy around specific high-value target effects that align with customer preferences.
