color changing

Altering its shade

Color changing describes something that shifts hue or appearance, either inherently or by design.

Some materials change color in response to temperature, light, or chemical exposure: color-changing mugs, color-changing nail polish.

Animals like chameleons and cuttlefish are naturally color changing.

The term applies to any surface, product, or effect that doesn't stay one color.
