Color-Changing Gel Nail Polishes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

De Blangy's Transformative Gel Polish is Temperature-Activated

— June 27, 2017 — Fashion
Nail Polish manufacturer, De Blangy, have created the worlds first color-changing gel polish.

This soon-to-be-released polish functions in the same way as a gel polish would (it has long-lasting wear, an ultra glossy finish and is non-toxic), but it is able to react to temperature and change color. To change the color of these gel polishes, simply apply heat with a hair dryer or dip your finger tips into cold water. Some temperature-reactive polishes will only remain active for as long as the polish is able to retain heat, but these color-changing gel polishes stay stable until you decide to change them by applying hot or cold again. Available in six color-ways, these technologically advanced polishes are a great way to get the most out of your nail color.
Trend Themes
1. Color-changing Beauty Products - Companies can create more temperature-activated, color-changing products to add a fun and innovative experience for customers.
2. Smart Gel Technology - Developing gel products that can react to various stimuli, like temperature, opens up opportunities for a new generation of wearable smart technology.
3. Non-toxic Gel Polishes - As more consumers demand non-toxic products, companies can continue to improve the quality and performance of their gel polishes to meet these expectations.
Industry Implications
1. Beauty - Innovation in temperature-activated, color-changing products can provide a unique selling point in a highly competitive market.
2. Fashion - Integrating this gel technology into clothing or accessories, like bags or shoes, could revolutionize the fashion industry.
3. Technology - The advancements made towards smart gel technology have the potential to create new industries and categories that have yet to be imagined.
