METHODS FOR APPLYING COMPOSITIONS TO EYELASHES

Smart overview of the Invention

The patent describes a method for applying cosmetic compositions to eyelashes using a specialized device. This device is engineered to mix, heat, and apply the composition precisely. It employs sensors to detect its position relative to the eyelashes, allowing for controlled application based on desired filament lengths. The device can also be wirelessly controlled and interact with computational devices like smartphones for enhanced user experience.

Device Functionality and Control

The device activates upon positioning at the starting point of the application gesture and ceases upon reaching the finish point. It is capable of mixing various formulas, heating them, and extruding the mixture onto the eyelashes. Sensors play a crucial role by detecting movement and ensuring continuous extrusion during application. Users can select desired lengths for the composition via inputs on a connected computational device.

Customization and User Interaction

Users can customize the application by selecting different formulas, including resin or curing formulas, through an interchangeable formula pack. The device may include a camera or optical system to capture images of eyelashes, aiding in selecting virtual overlays that represent desired composition lengths. These overlays assist in configuring the device for precise application within a defined working space.

Priming and Application Techniques

The device features bristles that apply the composition and conductive bristles that charge the eyelashes, enhancing adhesion. These bristles can be arranged in various configurations like brushes or clamps. Instructional materials guide users on effective usage, potentially offered as part of a kit that includes necessary components such as formula packs and repair elements.

Illustrative Examples and Configurations

Figures accompanying the patent illustrate various configurations of the device, demonstrating its components like a handle and head. While specific arrangements are shown, alternative configurations are possible without departing from the invention's scope. The diagrams serve to exemplify potential designs rather than limit possibilities, ensuring flexibility in adapting the technology to different user needs.
