Nail polish changes color with KO drops in the cocktail

Nina Skarabela

Nail polish knockout drops, some of you are probably wondering what these have to do with each other. I will briefly explain to you what the KO drop test and color-changing nail polish are all about.

Nail polish that can warn of KO drops in the drink, does that really exist?

Everyone who regularly goes to clubs has probably heard of KO drops (also known as knockout drops, date rape drugs or rape drugs) and, as a woman, you are always a bit worried that something might end up in your drink because it doesn't belong. Wouldn't it be great if it were easy to check whether the drink was damaged or not?

Nail polish discolors with KO drops

In the Netflix series Stay Close, the girls wear nail polish that discolours if you stick your finger in the glass and the cocktail has been contaminated with KO drops. But can this also work in reality?

How to protect yourself from KO drops with nail polish?

A couple of years ago in the US, a bunch of college students started Undercover Colors and tried to create a nail polish that would detect drugs like Rohypnol, GHB, and ketamine. However, the effectiveness of this invention could never really be confirmed.

Undercover Colors have now developed a test that works in a similar way to a pregnancy or Covid test. If you put a drop of the suspect drink in the test window, after a waiting period of up to three minutes you can see whether the drink is clean or not.

The German start-up Xantus has a bracelet that can be used to check drinks such as cocktails for knockout drops. The Armand is already quite common and it can be purchased in the drugstore or pharmacy.

OZN nail polish gives your nails a colorful colour

Despite all the tests, you are only on the safe side if you take good care of yourself and the open drink. Never lose sight of this because in real life you will probably not check the contents of the glass before every sip. Even if your girlfriend suddenly behaves strangely and absently, you should become suspicious and take her home immediately, there is not always too much alcohol behind it. Better save than sorry.

We at OZN were therefore unable to find a verified product that would fulfill the desire to find KO drops in a cocktail with a discolored nail polish. We can offer beautiful plant based nail polish colors for every party and occasion. These shine and color your nails beautifully colorful.
