Innovative advancements in nail polish colors and textures are expected to have a positive impact on market growth over the forecast period. For instance, magnetic nail polish consists of particles that orient themselves when a magnetic field is applied to the wet nail polish.

Bay well offers a magnetic gel nail polish that creates a cat-eye effect on the nail when a magnetic disc or wand is held above the wet nail polish for 10-15 seconds after application. 

The hands are then placed under a UV/LED lamp to seal the design. Color-changing nail polish that responds to outside stimuli, including thermochromic and photochromic, is another popular product among consumers.
