"In the original, and best Total Recall, there's a scene where Rekall's receptionist uses a digital pen to change the color of her nail polish. It's only taken 35 years, but now a company has turned up to CES 2026 with a version that actually works outside a pricey sci-fi movie. iPolish is a company which makes press-on acrylic nails that, when you apply an electric charge, changes color."
"iPolish says that each nail can display 400 colors, and can be changed as many times as the user would like. So, if you're coordinating your nails with your outfits, you're not bound to a single color palette in the weeks between salon visits. They're also surprisingly affordable, with the starter set costing $95 which contains two sets of nails, one in Ballerina cut, one in Squoval."
iPolish produces press-on acrylic nails that change color when an electric charge is applied. A charged wand connects to a phone and transfers a short charge to the nail tip to alter its color, taking around five seconds per nail. Each nail can display 400 colors and can be changed an unlimited number of times. Starter set costs $95 and includes two sets in Ballerina and Squoval cuts; nails cannot be reshaped without damaging the hardware. Replacement nails cost $6.50 each. The company has not disclosed technical details, and real-world quality and reliability remain to be seen.
