Imagine an enzyme facial mask for skin rejuvenation that changes color to let the wearer know that sufficient time has elapsed for proper treatment. Or a hair-removal cream that changes color to let the consumer know when to remove the product to prevent burning of the skin. Unique molecular recognition chemistry that allows for visual indicators when change has occurred has been used for two decades in research and biodefense markets. Now, Reveal Sciences is taking that technology and applying it to personal care.
