Abstract

The present invention is intended to provide a color changeable artificial nail having an external appearance which can be changed in response to the application of an electrical charge. To this end the present invention provides an artificial nail comprising a bistable material, such as a cholesteric liquid crystal layer, which comprises a material changeable in visible external color in response to the application of an electrical charge, preferably via an activation device.
