Pill to Turn Sweat into Perfume
If you would prefer your sweat to smell like Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue or CK One by Calvin Klein, then you're in luck! Lucy McRae, an artist based in the Netherlands, hopes to soon create a 'Swallowable Parfum', a perfume that can be ingested through a tiny capsule and omit a lovely fragrance as you perspire. We never thought we'd see those two words in the same sentence, ever!
"My main aim is to provoke and make people think in a completely different way about how makeup can be [used] in the future," said McRae.
Interested? This pill is still in it's research phase and by no means is there a release date yet, but McRae is working with another researcher, Sheref Mansy, to develop a prototype.
Where did he get this perspiration inspiration? That would be while he was watching a documentary on computer engineer Ray Kurzweil, who won the National Medal of Technology and wrote many books on how machines can, and will shape the future.
