I might check it out....

could be fun

Wow! That is so cool!
Smart girls

What a neat idea! Great way to circumvent the rules. And it would be great if you were wearing a bolder color that perhaps you aren't comfortable showcasing at work.

I respect their ingenuity but I've had polish like this for years. Friends picked up a bottle from a Del Sol store while on vacation for me. It's fun and a real conversation starter for those who notice the change.

sounds fun...i'd try it

Yeah picot, I still have a bottle of the color-change Del Sol stuff from about 10 years ago.

It's like those hyper color shirts but for nail polish.

Ha way to break the rules...

Love it! I've got lots of friends who hated their school's strict dress codes - no makeup, no jewelry, no hair accessories, no anything! - and who think this is a brilliant idea.

I understand that some schools have dress codes for gang-related reasons... or because they thing that it makes students focus more on school... but no makeup? no jewelry??? no HAIR ACCESSORIES? What the hell is this world coming to? I'm glad I had the opportunity to express my personal style in school before it apparently got banned.

clever!!!

I'm with picot and jspeed - while it's a fun story, it's not a new product. I have a bottle from Del Sol on my desk right now that is clear and changes to a bright pink in the sun.
I might even be a little obsessed with it, as I have 6 different bottles. It's great to have a nice pale pink or lavender on and have it turn into something wild like blue or green in the sun!

hooray girl power!

i'd totally consider buying this product. it'd be great for sporting those stylish new nail polish hues that aren't exactly "work appropriate" - like bright neon-ish orange, red & pinks and dark blues.

and for mondaymoos:

the elementary school i went to when i grew up didn't allow makeup and nailpolish either. i think it's less about the school suppressing the students and more about them promoting young children to focus on school and being a kid... and less about trying to be like the other girl with her new stylish such-and-such.

i think i would definitely try that...even though my school allows nail polish....

It's not an elementary school, judeandam. It's a high school. It's not like you can tell if it's designer polish when it's on, so there goes that argument too. It freaks me out because it reminds me of bootcamp where they want you to look like every other person there so they can break you down. Not exactly how I would've liked my school experience.

That's a very interesting idea! Yay for girls and nail polish that changes with UV light!

I went to this place called Del Sol when I went to the beach a few years back and got nail polish that changes colors in the sun. They only had COLORS, though, no clear-changing polish. This is neat.

smart girls! what a cool story!

The technology behind it and product itself is nothing new but I do like the clear-to-color variety.

Girls rule, and smart girls will rule the world! I'd definitely be up for some clear indoors/color outdoors nail polish!

I would buy it just to support the girls. Way to go!!!

I'm lucky since the school(s) I went to didn't have many restrictions; just no: clogs, jeans hanging below your butt and clothing with horrible sayings (like ones that promote violence, degrading comments about women (or men.) Although this is a cool idea for people that do have those polish restrictions.

I love this story. They are very clever! I love that they were probably just sitting around discussing the school's polish policy and said, "you know, it'd be cool if there was a polish that was clear at school and switched to color outside of school!" Then they did it. Good for them!

I guess its kind of like those "transitions" lenses, the glasses that darken and turn to sunglasses under bright light. I'd definitely try that nail polish.

Sounds cool, although I'm going to check out the Del Sol that a couple of people brought up.

thats genius! if i had a dress code i would totally wear this

Del Sol made that years ago! You can still buy it and it's really cheap.

Not a new idea though, I have some now like this, bought it
about 2 years ago

So freakin' cool! I wish students like these were recognized. It's not just students who find a cure for cancer or something that should win science prizes and get attention. It's something totally interesting and new. Kudos!

Brilliant!

I think if a schools having rules such as no make-up/nail polish/jewellery is a good thing. When I was at school people would make themselves late trying to get ready, just to go to school. As my mum always said it's not a fashion show you go to school, you learn you go home. You've got all your spare time, weekends and the rest of your life to express yourself. It simply teaches children to abide by rules that they may not agree with in the 'real world'.

cool idea! but since im grown and allowed to paint my nails now, I have no need for it.

But I think its a great idea for school kids.

Hell yeah i would! At my job, i'm not allowed to wear any nail polish but neutrals, which sucks!

cool! I remember I had a polish hat changed from pink to purple with UV light when I was little. I loved that stuff!

I would if my school didn't allow it. It's a really cool idea.

i would like try it
