Vanishing nail polish
Since the early days of school teachers have been setting rules. But since before then students have been looking for ways to bend them. I said bend and not break, because if you break a rule you can be punished but if you bend it the teacher cant do anything, it’s like the law.
The problem - Nail polish bans
Some schools have a no nail polish rule, why this is I don’t know, but I do know those pesky teachers have been winning the no nail polish in school rule for too long.
The only way around this in the past would have been to remove the nail polish before school and then reapply after.
The solution - Vanishing nail polish
A group of school kids in the UK were set the task of finding a product that would had some relevance to them, a problem they had that needed solving. So they came up with vanishing nail polish, a nail polish that would show outside but as soon as they go into school it vanishes.
How does it work?
The dramatic change is caused by a chemical reaction between the varnish and the ultraviolet light in natural sunlight.
The market
Not only did the kids come up with the great idea they also did their market research to see if they could possible sell their product. They found there to be a high number of local nail salons in their area.
Currently
- The polish has been manufactured in china
- Currently looking to find outlets to stock it in
- Going to be offered in up to 32 different colours
Love invention say - School kids 1 - Teachers 0
You’ve got to love the lengths school kids will go to, to defy their teachers. I think there’s definitely a niche market for this as there are many schools with a no nail vanish rule, they also have a great way to advertise their product for free with the press as it’s a great story of invention from a bunch of school kids.
However I can’t really see who else would want this, I really can’t see there being enough demand. I think they need to focus on how to let other school kids know about their product.
I also think there have been similar products on the market in the past (that failed) accept they haven’t used UV light.
