Ethnically Correct Band-aids?

Question

This is just a question.. I am doing some marketing research to find out if it would be profitable to invent and sell ethnically correct band-aids. Brown for Brown people, Black for Black people, ect. ect. that way the obious bright pink can blend better with ethnically correct band-aids

Answer 1

Sorry to burst your bubble but someone already thought of it :(. http://www.ebon-aide.com/. I believe other brands have them out too.

Answer 2

it doesn't matter to me what color the band-aid is. I always buy the cheapest. I don't really like the same color idea, I like the color to stand out from my skin, I want people to know that I have a band-aid on and to avoid touching it. If it was the same color more than likely they will not see it and hurt me. Plus sometimes its a good conversation piece, people see the band-aid and ask about the cut.

Answer 3

Sort of why they invented clear ones, huh? Yeah, well I am sure some people would like that. I don't know if I would call them etnically correct band aids. Maybe think of it like make up. Ya know??? they have many shades of foundation to match your skin tone. Maybe market it that way. "Pick your shade"

Answer 4

I think it could be profitable if u approach the "ethnic" part correctly- otherwise u could be in for a lawsuit instead. I don't think more than one dark shade and one lighter shade would be profitable though, b/c we already have clear bandaids! Try making the typical rectangle bandaids clear though, I hate the full all around seal of the clear ones, they rub off!

Answer 6

i have seen people that were black, brown, tanned white, untanned white, reddish, but never in my life have i ever seen a
"bright pink" person. your idea, though maybe valid, you may need to hire a colorist.
