Undercover Colours are close to launching a new nail polish that changes color when it comes in contact with liquid laced with date-rape drugs. "If the nail polish changes color, she’ll know that something is wrong," according to the Undercover Colors Facebook page.

Drugs such as Rohypnol, Xanax and GHB are detectable by the polish intended to help women stay safe from date rape predators. Undercover Colours hopes that the product will help put women back in control and make potential perpetrators think twice before attempting to date rape women.

"Through this nail polish and similar technologies, we hope to make potential perpetrators afraid to spike a woman’s drink because there’s now a risk that they can get caught," the page stated.

The four male undergraduates at North Carolina State University who created Undercover Colors are currently raising money to develop the product, according to an article in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Until then...geek on!
