Colour changing nail polish?

Yes, you did read that right, nail polish that changes colour - now isn't that a great invention?

Remember those 90's t-shirts that changed colour in the sun? Well, the same technology has been applied to nail polish, In The Mood have created nine polishes that change colour dependent on the temperature.

Here's the science bit!

"In the Mood nail polish will change color when heated to 91 degrees Fahrenheit. Your normal body temperature is 98.6 degrees but your fingertips are slightly cooler. An elevation in body temperature, for example: running your hands under warm/hot water, going outside in hot weather, or even mood changes, will cause the nail polish color to change. The colors will continue to change back and forth as your body temperature changes."


Finally we may be able to achieve that dip-dye look at-home without a trip to WAH!

These are my favourite colour combos:





Check out the video of how it works.



Unfortunately they are only available in the US and Canada priced $8. I would love to try these so if there are any American bloggers that want to do a beauty swap for some UK products let me know, if not I'll be off to scour ebay or find a UK equivalent?
