Chameleon cosmetics range from lipsticks and blushes to foundations, all designed to transform in color when applied. For instance, a lipstick that appears black in the tube may leave a pink tint on the lips, while a green blush oil can turn pink upon application.

This color-changing effect is attributed to specific ingredients such as Red 27, a dye that reacts with moisture, and encapsulated colors that release upon rubbing the product onto the skin.
