It’s an item that would not be questioned or noticed by others. It’s nail polish! A nail polish brand called Undercover Colors created this “nail polish [that would] be able to detect so-called "date rape" drugs such as Rohypnol and Ketamine. (Leveine,2018) ” When wearing the nail polish, the individual, would dab their finger (exposing the polished nail to the drink) if the nail polish changes color it means the drink has been tampered with.
