They are manufactured to the same rigorous standards for safety and reliability as other U.S. condoms, and they are the only glow-in-the-dark condoms intended for the prevention of pregnancy and disease. U.S. patent #5,018,532

The Night Light is able to glow because of a technological advance using a safe, non-toxic phosphorous pigment. The condom is made with a patented 3-layer process. The center layer contains the phosphorous pigment while the inner and outer layers are regular latex, similar to other condoms. This seals the pigment between 2 layers of regular latex.

In order to glow, Night Light? condoms need to be exposed to light for about 30 seconds. You can choose to light it up one of three ways: while the condom is still in its wrapper; when you are putting on the condom; or after it is already on.

For the best results, keep the lights on bright while you put on the condom, or turn up the lights for about 30 seconds after you have put it on.
