Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the application of make-up to the skin. [Background technology]

[0002] Rather than a smooth surface of uniform color, the skin has undulations and micro-reliefs such as pores, fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, scars, and dry areas that create a somewhat uneven surface.

[0003] Moreover, although the color may vary with scale due to pimples or pigmentation disorders, the color differences may be relatively small.

[0004] Quite frequently, the surface will have irregularities which, whilst forming an overall aesthetically pleasing surface, are such that the surface may be judged to be unattractive.

[0005] This can be from a few extra bumps or from abnormal discolorations that are larger than normal. For example, when the pores are slightly larger than average, this tends to make the surface less aesthetic. The same can be true when the pigmentation disorder is widespread and / or contrasting.

[0006] It can also result from a poor distribution of irregularities: freckles, for example, can be quite attractive, but an uneven or asymmetric distribution can make the whole surface look rather unattractive.

[0007] The irregularities may vary in size.

[0008] Sometimes a single irregularity can make the whole surface less beautiful, for example, a coloured pimple on one cheek can mar the beauty of the face.

[0009] The application of foundation is the most effective technique for beautifying uneven skin by making it possible to hide breakouts and pigmentation disorders, to obscure small irregularities such as pores and wrinkles, and to conceal blemishes and acne scars.

[0010] However, the presence of foundation can take away from the natural appearance of the skin, especially when the product used is for large coverage areas.

[0011] Foundations contain coating particles that impart color, so manufacturers offer these products in a variety of color variants, giving the user the possibility to find the product that best suits him or her, in particular by choosing a shade that is close to the user's skin tone.

[0012] Another problem associated with the use of foundation is that the application of the product hides all of the unevenness, which is annoying but would be better left alone, and can give the skin an artificial look.

[0013] Formulators have attempted to solve this problem by producing compositions with low coverage, the transparency of which minimizes the artificial appearance of the skin, however users are only partially satisfied with the concealed results.

[0014] It is difficult to escape this logic of compromise between concealment and transparency.

[0015] One possibility would be to apply the product only to the imperfections, but this potential solution is currently very limited since it only applies to people who have only a few imperfections to cover, and it is understood that these imperfections need to be few in number, and applying the product to many small areas would be laborious.

[0016] Finally, if the product is applied only in one area, a boundary problem is created: a great deal of skill is required to obtain a natural or invisible double eyelid, so this solution is not practical in practice, and therefore most people apply the product to the entire face.

[0017] The solution proposed by FR2933582 is also known, which is aimed at capturing the skin texture and subsequently reproducing it on a keratinous material. However, the use of the device described in said patent document can be relatively expensive. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0019] [Non-Patent Document 1] Recommendation 15:2004 [Non-Patent Document 2] "Millimetre-scale bubble-like dielectric elastomer actuators", Carpi et al., Polymer International (2009), Vol. 59, No. 3, pp. 407-414 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0020] There is a need for a simple way to obtain a make-up effect which makes it possible to obtain concealment of imperfections whilst imparting a desired appearance to the made-up skin, in particular a natural appearance.

[0021] The present invention aims to fulfill this need. [Means for solving the problem]

[0022] According to a first aspect, the present invention relates to a method for making up the skin, preferably facial skin, comprising the step of forming, on a deposit of foundation composition applied to the skin, a discontinuous deposit of a plurality of islets of a correcting composition and / or a deposit of a correcting composition comprising a plurality of visible substances giving it the appearance of a heterogeneity, The corrective composition has multiple optical properties that locally modify the appearance of makeup to produce a pattern that reproduces the appearance of unevenness in skin relief and / or color.

[0023] According to another of its aspects, the present invention provides a method for making up the skin, comprising the steps of: a) applying a foundation composition to the skin; b) locally removing and / or moving the foundation applied in step a) to create a pattern that reproduces the appearance of unevenness of the skin and / or color. The present invention relates to a method comprising the steps of:

[0024] According to another of its aspects, the present invention relates to a cosmetic device having a peripheral surface including a plurality of islands unevenly arranged within the peripheral surface, each of said islands having a maximum dimension of at least 0.8 mm and having a shape and / or property for taking up and / or releasing a product present on the skin or applying it to the skin that differs from the shape and / or property of the peripheral surface to result in the generation of a pattern on the skin whose appearance is related to the arrangement of the plurality of islands on the peripheral surface.

[0025] The invention advantageously makes it possible to reproduce the natural or ideal appearance of skin on a made-up surface, despite the presence of a foundation.

[0026] The device advantageously makes it possible to recreate a natural or ideal skin appearance on the skin.

[0027] Thus, make-up using foundation, which may be relatively high coverage, advantageously appears less artificial after use of the device on the made-up surface.

[0028] The present invention advantageously allows for a relatively set make-up with relatively little transfer.

[0029] According to one preferred mode of the invention, the foundation composition dries quickly on the skin, e.g., in less than 20 minutes, through the use of volatile solvents and / or high levels of solids, and / or through the use of film-forming compounds.

[0030] For example, the foundation composition and / or the correction composition advantageously comprises volatile compounds (hydrocarbon solvents, hydrocarbon oils or silicone oils) that represent more than 50% of the solvent phase, or even more than 80% by weight, or even more than 90% by weight. This high proportion of volatile solvents can make it possible to obtain a quick drying and reduced transfer of said composition on the face. However, when drying times are long, it may be required for the foundation composition to be able to function by applying a correction composition or, as will be explained in detail below, by taking and / or transferring the foundation composition before drying.

[0031] The low transferability of the foundation composition can for example be promoted by the application, after step b), of an intermediate compound which improves the fixation of the make-up, said compound being in particular a fixing lacquer.

[0032] The foundation composition and / or the protective composition may also advantageously comprise at least one film-forming compound (e.g., a silicone resin, a polyacrylate, a latex, an acrylate dendrimer silicone, or a reactive silicone) to improve the staying power of said composition on the skin and thus to confer better transfer resistance.

[0033] The pattern created preferably reproduces the appearance of the user's natural skin texture or a predefined skin texture. The expression "skin texture" is understood to mean the appearance that is visible to the naked eye caused by the unevenness of the skin's relief. The pattern created may reproduce the appearance of the user's natural freckles or a predefined freckles.

[0034] In one variant, the pattern produced is different from that of moles, hi one variant, the pattern produced is not produced by the phenomenon of optical interference.

[0035] The device according to the invention makes it possible to produce the desired make-up effect in a relatively simple manner.

[0036] The term "cosmetic device" means that the device is adapted for use in contact with human keratinous material.

[0037] The device can be intended to contact a deposit of foundation composition present on the skin in order to create a desired pattern on said foundation deposit.

[0038] The expression "foundation composition" is understood to mean a high-coverage make-up product.

[0039] The coverage function may be provided by aggregated or non-aggregated particles, typically ranging in size from a few hundred nanometers to a few tens of μm. Thus, high coverage makeup products may generally include at least inorganic or organic particulate materials, such as excipients or powdered pigments (e.g., pigments, mother of pearl, interference particles, and mixtures thereof).

[0040] These particles may be initially included in the foundation composition or may be obtained instantly by transformation, for example by crystallization following evaporation of the solvent (in the case of salts), by a change in temperature (in the case of waxes or semicrystalline polymers), or by conversion treatment (for example a reaction between carbonates and divalent ions). For example, use may be made of products that crystallize like salts at their solubility limit, where crystallization occurs when the solvent is evaporated or absorbed by the skin. It is also possible to use crystalline polymers that turn white on evaporation.

[0041] More specifically, the foundation compositions used in connection with the present invention preferably contain a pigment, particularly preferably iron oxide.

[0042] The expression "plurality of visible substances imparting a heterogeneous appearance" should be understood to mean that the visible substances, due to their optical properties, such as color, gloss, or refractive index, impart a heterogeneous appearance that is visible to the naked eye without the aid of a magnifying device such as a magnifying glass.

[0043] The material is preferably a fiber, particularly preferably a colored fiber.

[0044] The substance may be in the form of an assembly of objects separated from one another, said separated objects being visible to the eye, or an agglomeration of objects, including visible agglomerates.

[0045] The substances deliberately modify the local appearance of the deposit of the corrective composition, for example as a function of concentration and / or color, to produce a desired appearance.

[0046] The deposit of the correcting composition comprising a visible substance formed on the deposit of the foundation composition may be continuous (i.e. in the form of a unitary deposit) or discontinuous.

[0047] The corrective composition is preferably colored, and particularly preferably contains a red dye.

[0048] Preferably, the method according to the invention comprises the steps of: a) applying a foundation composition to the skin; b) applying a correcting composition to the foundation composition to form a deposit of the correcting composition comprising a plurality of visible substances that gives a discontinuous deposit of islands and / or a heterogeneous appearance; Includes.

[0049] Therefore, the corrective composition is preferably applied onto a deposit of foundation composition already present on the skin.

[0050] As a variant, the foundation composition and the corrective composition are applied simultaneously to the skin to form the desired makeup.

[0051] As a further variant, the correcting composition is first applied to the skin and then in a second step, a foundation is applied to the skin so as to completely or partially cover the deposit of the previously produced correcting composition. In this case, the correcting composition can be caused to diffuse through the foundation film so as to form the desired make-up. The application of the correcting composition can for example be carried out by an applicator comprising an application surface that during step b) comes into contact with the surface to be made up, in particular with the foundation deposit, i) the applicator may comprise a reticulated area having properties for releasing the correction composition, the resulting discrete deposit of islands being related to the arrangement of areas on the application surface, said areas being present on the application surface of the applicator in particular consisting of reticulated reliefs and / or holes and / or areas with different physicochemical properties, and / or ii) The applicator may come into spatially non-uniform contact with the surface to be made up, in particular with foundations, so as to obtain discontinuous deposits of islands of the corrective composition.

[0052] The correcting composition can also be sprayed onto the surface to be made up, in particular onto the foundation deposit, so as to obtain a discontinuous deposit of islands. In this case, the method can for example comprise, prior to step b), a step of arranging for application to the surface to be made up, in particular onto the deposit of foundation composition, a mask with holes forming a stencil, and an applicator, in particular a sprayer, can spray the correcting composition through said mask, in particular during step b), the discontinuous deposit being related to the arrangement of holes in said mask.

[0053] In one implementation, the present invention includes: - selecting an applicator and / or a mask with holes that allows obtaining a predefined pattern reproducing the appearance of unevenness of the skin's relief and / or color, and proposing to the user the selection made among a set of applicators and / or masks with holes; - obtaining said pattern by using the method defined above on a foundation composition using a selected applicator and / or a mask with holes.

[0054] The set of applicators and / or the apertured shield proposed to the user may initially be present within the same make-up assembly, for example in different compartments thereof.

[0055] In one implementation, the present invention includes: - selecting a pattern which reproduces the appearance of the unevenness of the skin relief and / or color to be obtained, the choice of which is made from a set of predefined patterns being proposed to the user; - producing an applicator and / or a mask with holes that allow the generation of said pattern to be obtained on the foundation composition, depending on the selection made in the previous step; - obtaining, on the foundation composition, the pattern to be obtained by using the method defined above, using the selected applicator and / or the mask with holes. The present invention relates to a method comprising the steps of:

[0056] A series of predefined patterns may for example be suggested to the user by the software, the units may then be displayed on a display device.

[0057] The application surface of the applicator can be manufactured by 3D printing of a mold thereof, followed by a casting step.

[0058] The application surface of the applicator may be manufactured by laser cutting of a sheet material.

[0059] According to another of its aspects, the invention also provides an assembly for carrying out the above method, comprising: a) a foundation composition; b) a correction composition; and c) an applicator for applying the corrective composition onto the surface to be made up, in particular onto the deposit of foundation composition; d) an optional shield with holes; The applicator may comprise an application surface comprising a reticulated area having the property of releasing a correcting composition configured to form a pattern reproducing the appearance of uneven skin color and / or relief during application on the made-up surface, in particular on the foundation composition. As a variant or in addition, the applicator may spray the correcting composition to form a discontinuous deposit of islands. The arrangement of the holes in the shield is advantageously related to the pattern reproducing the appearance of uneven skin color and / or relief to be obtained.

[0060] According to another of its aspects, the invention provides an assembly for carrying out the above method, comprising: a) a foundation composition; b) a correction composition comprising a plurality of visible substances that give the appearance of a non-uniformity, said plurality of visible substances being preferably colored fibers; The present invention relates to an assembly comprising:

[0061] In one implementation, the removal and / or transfer of the foundation is performed by a device comprising a surface that contacts the deposit of foundation composition; a) the device comprises an assembly of areas for removing and / or transferring the foundation, the pattern obtained, in particular a discontinuous network, being related to the arrangement of said areas on the surface, these areas present on the surface of the device consisting in particular of a set of elements having the property of retaining different foundation compositions and / or holes for releasing the foundation and / or reliefs for locally transferring the foundation, and / or b) The device is placed in spatially non-uniform contact with the foundation so as to obtain a pattern, in particular a discontinuous network of islands.

[0062] In one implementation, the foundation is removed by spraying a material to obtain a pattern, in particular a discontinuous network of islands. The method includes a step of placing a mask with holes against the deposit of foundation composition prior to the spraying of the material, and a spray device sprays the material through the mask. The resulting pattern, in particular a discontinuous network of islands, is related to the arrangement of the holes in the mask.

[0063] According to another of its aspects, the invention relates to an assembly, in particular for carrying out the method defined above, comprising: a) a foundation composition; b) a device for locally removing and / or transferring foundation deposited on the skin; c) an optional shield having a hole; and d) optionally, a system for spraying the material; Equipped with The device comprises a surface including a reticulated area for removing and / or transferring foundation to form a pattern that reproduces the appearance of uneven skin color and / or relief, and / or a spray system for spraying material onto the foundation to locally transfer the foundation and to form a pattern, and / or an arrangement of holes in the shield related to the pattern that reproduces the appearance of uneven skin color and / or relief to be obtained.

[0064] A subject of the invention is also a makeup kit comprising a device as defined above and a mass of product for loading the device with a product to be applied to the skin.

[0065] The assembly comprises a device and a master surface for creating islands on the surface, in particular a master surface having some areas filled with product and other areas not filled with product.

[0066] The subject of the present invention is - a plurality of devices as defined above, each having a different arrangement of islands within its peripheral surface; - a mass of product for loading at least one of said devices with the product to be applied to the skin; It is also a makeup kit that includes:

[0067] Thus, the present invention can advantageously allow a user to choose the pattern they wish to create on their skin by selecting a particular device within such a kit.

[0068] A subject of the present invention is also a method for making up the skin comprising a step of transferring and / or taking a product present on the skin and / or applying the product to the skin using a device as defined above to create a visible area whose distribution corresponds to the distribution of islands on the surrounding surface.

[0069] The use of a device according to the invention can preferably make it possible to form a discontinuous network of visible areas to create a desired pattern.

[0070] The visible area can be created by transferring a product onto the skin, preferably containing a red dye.

[0071] The visible area can also be created by taking the product on the skin, the skin having previously received an application of the product, preferably a foundation.

[0072] The method may include a preliminary application of a foundation to the skin. After depositing a film of foundation, the device may then be used to recreate the appearance of skin grain and / or freckles on the made-up surface.

[0073] Treatment with the device is preferably carried out without sliding the peripheral surface over the optionally made-up skin, particularly preferably by rolling the peripheral surface over this optionally made-up skin.

[0074] The device is preferably brought into contact with a deposit of foundation present on the skin and moved relative to this deposit in order to locally pick up the foundation and to obtain the desired discontinuous network of patterns, particularly visible areas.

[0075] In this case, the peripheral surface particularly preferably comprises islands with properties for taking up the foundation present on the skin, these properties being different from those of the surrounding surface.

[0076] In one preferred variant, the device is placed in contact with a deposit of foundation present on the skin and is moved relative to this deposit so as to locally displace said foundation.

[0077] In this case, the islands of the device are undulating and protrude relative to the surrounding surface in order to locally make it possible to displace the foundation by contact of the islands with the foundation in order to obtain the desired discontinuous network of patterns, in particular visible areas.

[0078] These undulations have for example a height between 1 mm and 5 mm and a diameter, measured at the tip, between 0.3 mm and 5 mm.

[0079] In a preferred variant, the device is placed in contact with a deposit of foundation present on the skin and moved relative to this deposit in order to apply a product to the foundation so as to form discontinuous deposits of visible areas and / or to apply a product product to the foundation that includes visible substances that give it a heterogeneous appearance, The products have optical properties that locally modify the appearance of makeup to produce a pattern that reproduces the uneven appearance of skin relief and / or color.

[0080] Measuring Coverage In the case of liquid composition (25℃) The term "liquid composition" means a composition that has a measurable viscosity. A liquid composition is capable of flowing under the influence of its own weight.

[0081] The coverage of the liquid composition is measured at a finish thickness of 50 μm for the liquid composition.

[0082] The composition is spread onto a matte black contrast card and a matte white contrast card, for example Leneta Form WP1 brand card for the matte black color and Leneta 1A brand card for the matte white color.

[0083] The application can be performed using an automated spreader.

[0084] Measurements are carried out on the composition thus spread.

[0085] Solid composition (25℃) A solid composition is one whose viscosity cannot be measured.

[0086] The solid composition may be a composition molded in stick form or a powder composition, or a composition molded in the form of a loose or compressed powder.

[0087] a) For powdered, loose or compressed solid compositions, the composition is applied using the same contrast card as above and covered with a slightly rough transparent adhesive tape, for example Blenderm® brand adhesive tape from 3M company, reference number 15025, which is bonded to the contrast card via its adhesive surface.

[0088] The composition is 0.5 mg / cm 2 ±0.02mg / cm 2 is deposited on the adhesive tape so as to obtain a uniform deposition of

[0089] To carry out the deposition, a sponge may be used that is filled with the composition and mounted on an eroding machine that applies a predefined movement to the sponge, for example a single-use sponge of the Lancome-Photogenic type, used on the pink side.

[0090] b) The composition in stick form is melted, for example at 90° C., and then spread in liquid form on, for example, a matte black contrast card and a matte white contrast card of the same reference numbers as above, but not covered with Blenderm®. The spreading stick is kept at the same temperature as the composition, so as to avoid thermal shock.

[0091] The composition in stick form is thus deposited to a thickness of 50 μm when melted.

[0092] Measurements and Calculations Reflectance spectra were obtained on black and white backgrounds using a Minolta 3700-d spectrophotometer (diffuse measuring geometry / 8° and observation D65 / 10°, specular component excluded mode, small aperture (Creiss)) and a contrast card was optionally covered with Blenderm® as described above.

[0093] The spectra are expressed as colorimetric coordinates in the CIELab7 space of the International Commission on Illumination, in accordance with Recommendation 15:2004.

[0094] Contrast ratio, or coverage, is calculated by taking the arithmetic mean of Y on a black background, dividing it by the average value of Y on a white background, and multiplying by 100.

[0095] According to one particular mode, the foundation composition used in the context of the invention has a coverage value greater than or equal to 30, in particular greater than or equal to 50 and more preferentially ranging from 60 to 95.

[0096] Correction composition As mentioned above, the correction composition can make it possible to obtain a discontinuous deposition of islands. As a variant, the correction composition has a non-homogeneous appearance due to the presence of visible substances.

[0097] Particulate correction composition The corrective composition may be a particulate, especially a fibrous, composition.

[0098] The particulate correction composition may include pigments, such as colored powders and / or dyes and / or colored fibers.

[0099] As a variant, the particulate correction composition may comprise non-coloured materials, such as powders and / or waxes and / or polymers and / or salts.

[0100] In this case, the particulate correction composition can provide relief and / or whiteness and / or gloss effects.

[0101] For example, the correcting composition can be deposited in several different locations, for example by applying it with a brush, which can be loaded with particles at its tip, so that the correcting composition can be applied by lightly passing the end of the brush over the surface on which the foundation composition has been deposited.

[0102] In this case, the user can apply the corrective composition spatially non-uniformly onto the deposit of foundation composition.

[0103] As will be described in more detail below, other types of applicators may also be used to apply the particulate correction composition.

[0104] Corrective composition in fluid form As a variant, the corrective composition may be in fluid form during its application to the deposit of foundation composition.

[0105] In this case, the corrective composition may include a continuous medium, for example a medium in which visible matter is present.

[0106] The correction composition, which is in a fluid form during its application, in one implementation comprises: a) Contains visible substances, especially fibres; and / or b) Volatile solvents, in particular hydrocarbon volatile solvents such as ethanol, acetone, isopropanol, propanol, dimethyl ether, methyl ethyl ether, diethyl ether, and / or linear C8-C 16 Alkanes or branched C8-C 16 volatile hydrocarbon oils selected from alkanes (e.g. isododecane, isodecane, isohexadecane; decane, dodecane, or tetradecane, or undecane / tridecane mixtures), and / or volatile oils, in particular 8 centistokes (cSt) (8×10 -6 m 2 and / or comprising a silicone volatile oil having a viscosity of not more than 1000 nm / s, in particular a linear or cyclic silicone volatile oil containing 2 to 10 silicone atoms (e.g. decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane, decamethyltetrasiloxane, dodecamethylpentasiloxane, or polydimethylsiloxane, and mixtures thereof); c) in the form of a multiphase composition, in particular a two-phase composition, in particular one of the phases being transparent It is possible.

[0107] Preferably, the visible material comprises, in particular consists of, coloured fibres having an average length between 0.2 mm and 2.5 mm and / or an average diameter between 50 μm and 200 μm.

[0108] These fibers may be natural or synthetic, and may be inorganic or organic.

[0109] The term "fiber" should be understood to mean an object of length L and diameter D, such that L is much longer than D, and D is the diameter of a circle into which a cross section of the fiber may be inscribed.

[0110] The fibres generally have a length L ranging from 100 μm to 1000 μm, but may be shorter or longer.

[0111] The fibres may be longer than this, especially if they are very fine, for example having a diameter D of less than 5 μm, in which case the size may range up to 3000 μm.

[0112] The fibres may be shorter than this, especially if they are somewhat thicker, for example having a diameter D greater than 30 μm, in which case the lower limit of the size range may be 50 μm.

[0113] In particular, the L / D ratio may be between 3.5 and 2500, preferably between 5 and 500, particularly preferably between 5 and 150.

[0114] In particular, use may be made of textiles, in particular silk fibres, cotton fibres, wool fibres, flax fibres, in particular cellulose fibres extracted from trees, plants or algae, rayon fibres, polyamide (Nylon®) fibres, viscose fibres, acetate fibres, in particular rayon acetate fibres, poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) (or aramid) fibres, in particular Kevlar® fibres, acrylic polymer fibres, in particular polymethyl methacrylate fibres or poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) fibres, polyolefin fibres, in particular polyethylene or polypropylene fibres, glass fibres, silica fibres, carbon fibres, in particular carbon fibres in the glassy carbon form, polytetrafluoroethylene (such as Teflon®) fibres, insoluble collagen fibres, polyester fibres, polyvinyl chloride or polyvinylidene chloride fibres, polyvinyl alcohol fibres, polyacrylonitrile fibres, chitosan fibres, polyurethane fibres, polyethylene phthalate fibres and fibres formed from mixtures of polymers such as those mentioned previously, for example fibres used in the manufacture of polyamide / polyester fibres.

[0115] The fibres may be uncoloured or coloured, either inherently or by coating and / or treating said fibres with agents capable of imparting colour. Such agents may in particular be selected from cationic, anionic and non-ionic dyes, such as nitro or anthraquinone dyes, or from oxidative precursors used in hair colouring, or from graftable dyes. Preferably, the colouring agents used are anionic dyes, in particular dyes with sulphonic functional groups, and also graftable dyes, such as those used in textile processing.

[0116] The diameter of a fiber corresponds to its largest transverse dimension.

[0117] In a particularly preferred manner, the visible material comprises, in particular consists of, red-coloured or purple-coloured fibres.

[0118] For example, use may be made of the fibers used in documents JP2007210894, JP2007077098, JP2006052203 and JP2006052202.

[0119] In one implementation, the correction composition includes colored particles dispersed in a medium, which may be subtly colored or uncolored.

[0120] Such compositions may be applied to the skin by transfer using an applicator as described below.

[0121] The coloured granules may have a size between 0.3 mm and 2 mm, in particular between 0.5 mm and 2 mm.

[0122] The granules may be made of a material selected from glass, zirconium oxide, tungsten carbide, plastics such as polyurethane, polyamide, polytetrafluoroethylene or polypropylene, metals such as steel, copper, brass or chrome, marble, onyx, jade, natural mother of pearl and precious stones (diamond, emerald, ruby ​​or sapphire, amethyst or aquamarine). Advantageously, glass beads are used. For example, use may be made of the product sold by the company Sigmund Lindner under the name of the standard Silibeads®, these beads having the advantage of giving a glossy effect to the make-up. The colored granules may be deformable or non-deformable, solid or hollow, and coated or uncoated.

[0123] The particles may be colored from the outset or may be subsequently treated to impart or change color to the particles, for example by impregnation in a coloring composition.

[0124] The vehicle may be a carbopol gel, a guar gum gel, or an emulsion.

[0125] When the correcting composition is in liquid form during its application, it can be applied by transfer onto the foundation composition with an applicator. As a variant, a suitable composition can be sprayed onto the foundation deposit, as will be explained in detail herein below.

[0126] Application in the form of droplets When the correcting composition is in liquid form, the correcting composition can be applied to the foundation composition in the form of small droplets.

[0127] In this case, the correction composition may contain a mass content of solids ranging from 0.01% to 100%. In this case, the correction composition may be sprayed and may optionally contain a solvent, typically ethanol or a silicone- or carbon-based solvent.

[0128] The use of such solvents may advantageously allow for the production of droplets that dry quickly.

[0129] The corrective composition can have a surface and drying properties that can minimize spreading on the surface.

[0130] surface tension phenomenon In this case it is possible to apply the correction composition in the form of a continuous deposit, and a discontinuous deposit of islands can be obtained by surface tension phenomena.

[0131] In this case, a correcting composition may be used whose surface tension is higher than that of the surface. Preferentially, the difference is at least 3 points, preferably 10 points (surface tension expressed in mN / m). For example, since the surface of a foundation composition is somewhat hydrophobic due to the presence of fatty substances such as isododecane (surface tension = about 25 mN / m), the correcting composition has a surface tension of at least 28, preferentially more than 35 mN / m. Preferentially, the correcting composition has a surface tension of more than 50, for example being a water-based or predominantly water-based composition.

[0132] In this case, the mass content of solids may range from 0.01% to 90%.

[0133] When the discontinuous deposits are formed by surface tension phenomena and the correction composition includes a pigment, the mass content of solids in the correction composition can range from 0.01% to 100%.

[0134] When the discontinuous deposit is formed by surface tension phenomena and the correction composition does not contain a pigment, the mass content of solids in the correction composition can range from 1% to 100%. Such correction compositions can be applied by hand or by spraying.

[0135] Polyphasic correction composition As mentioned hereinabove, the corrective composition may be in the form of a multi-phase composition, in particular a two-phase composition.

[0136] In this case, one of the phases may contain a pigment or may be a non-pigmented material (powder or wax or polymer or salt or other material). For example, the correction composition may contain two immiscible liquids, one of which contains a dye or polymer.

[0137] Preferentially, one of the phases is transparent.

[0138] In this case, the mass content of solids may range from 0.01% to 90%.

[0139] When the correction composition is multiphase and contains a pigment, the mass content of solids may range from 0.01% to 90%.

[0140] When the correction composition is multiphase and does not contain pigments, the mass content of solids may range from 1% to 90%.

[0141] Solids concentrations ranging from 0.01% to 90% are used depending on whether colored or uncolored materials are used.

[0142] The multi-phase correction composition may be applied by hand or by spraying.

[0143] Irrespective of the galenical form of the correction composition, the fibres present in the correction composition advantageously have the following characteristics: a) the fibres have a length between 1 μm and 10 mm, preferably between 0.5 and 5 mm; and / or b) the fibres have a cross section inscribed in a circle with a diameter between 10 μm and 1000 μm; and / or c) the fibers provide at least one optical effect, in particular color and / or luster and / or relief may have all or some of the following:

[0144] In general, the correcting composition can be applied by hand, by spraying, by means of an airbrush or by means of an applicator intended to deposit a correcting composition, in particular a foundation composition, by transfer onto the surface to be made up.

[0145] Discontinuous deposits on islands The discontinuous stack of islands can include contiguous islands and separate islands. As a variant, the discontinuous stack of islands can consist of a set of separate islands.

[0146] The discontinuous deposits of islands preferably have the following characteristics: a) the islands have an average size between 0.05 mm and 3 mm, preferably between 0.1 mm and 1.5 mm, particularly preferably between 0.3 mm and 0.9 mm, and / or b) the average separation distance between two adjacent islands is between 0.25 mm and 20 mm, preferably between 0.5 mm and 5 mm, particularly preferably between 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm, and / or c) the discontinuous deposit comprises at least 5, preferably at least 10, preferably at least 30, particularly preferably at least 100 islands; has all or some of the above.

[0147] The size of an island corresponds to its largest dimension.

[0148] The average size of an island corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the sizes of said islands, and the distance between two islands corresponds to the separation of the centers of gravity of said islands.

[0149] The average distance between two adjacent islands corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the separation distances of the two adjacent islands over the number of pairs of adjacent islands.

[0150] Unless otherwise stated, the size of the islands and the distance between two islands are measured at the time of application of the correction composition.

[0151] The density of islands in the discontinuous deposit is preferably 1 cm per 1 cm of surface area of ​​skin covered by the foundation. 2 5 islands per cm 2 Less than 1000 per

[0152] - islands with an average size between 0.4 and 4 mm, - the average separation distance between two adjacent islands between 1 and 5 mm; - 1cm 2 Number of islands greater than 1 per The discontinuous deposits of islands having the above features are preferably obtained to form a pattern which reproduces the appearance of freckles.

[0153] The islands are preferably non-reflective. The discontinuous deposits of islands preferably do not consist of deposits of glitter flakes on the foundation.

[0154] The islands are preferably applied according to a predefined pattern, which is described in detail herein below.

[0155] For example, the appearance associated with freckles may advantageously be reproduced by producing a discontinuous deposit of islands having at least two regions where the islands differ in at least one of their appearance characteristics.

[0156] Thus, the discontinuous deposit may comprise a first region and a second region, the islands present in the first region and the islands present in the second region differing in at least color and / or average size and / or density and / or shape and / or gloss.

[0157] Preferably, the discontinuous deposit comprises a first region and a second region, and the islands present in the first region and the islands present in the second region differ at least in terms of color and / or average size and / or density.

[0158] In one implementation, two different corrective compositions, particularly of different colors, are present in the first region and the second region.

[0159] The discontinuous deposit may also include a first region and a second region, and the islands present in the first region and the islands present in the second region differ in color from all or part of the deposit of the foundation composition in terms of at least a colorimetric difference ΔE in CIELab space. Note that ΔE is defined by the following relationship:

[0160]

number

[0161] where L1, a1, b1 are the coordinates in the colorimetric space of the first color to be compared and L2, a2, b2 are the coordinates in the colorimetric space of the second color in the CIELab system (index L is luminance, index a is red, index b is yellow).

[0162] This measurement of ΔΕ between a first area of ​​the face with few or no islands and a second area of ​​the face with more islands can be performed using a Chromasphere. The following protocol can be used: 100 mg of foundation is weighed and applied to the face with a bare finger. The corrective composition is then applied. After a drying time of 15 minutes, an image of the made-up cheek on the first area and on the second area, respectively, is taken using the Chromasphere. The measurement difference corresponding to ΔΕ reflects the desired non-uniformity.

[0163] Such variations in the appearance characteristics of the islands may advantageously make it possible to recreate a natural effect.

[0164] Advantageously, it is possible to obtain a discontinuous deposit of islands in a first region having an island density greater than the island density in a second region, the first region being on the cheek and the second region being on the periocular area or forehead.

[0165] In particular, it is possible to obtain a discontinuous deposit of islands in a first region having an island density greater than the island density of a second region and a third region, the first region being on the cheek and the second region and the third region being on the periocular area and forehead, respectively.

[0166] The resulting islands may have a colour difference ΔE in the CIELab space that is greater than or equal to 1, in particular greater than or equal to 3, relative to the colour of all or part of the deposit of foundation composition.

[0167] A discontinuous deposit can also be obtained by applying an electric and / or magnetic field and / or an overpressure after application of the corrective composition to the surface to be made up, in particular to a foundation deposit.

[0168] In this case, the strength of the magnetic field applied in the vicinity may be between 1 mT and 2 T, and the correction composition may include particles of non-zero magnetic susceptibility, for example based on iron or rare earth metals.

[0169] Removal and / or transfer of the foundation carried out in step b) The removal and / or displacement of foundation carried out in step b) preferably makes it possible to form a discontinuous network of islands that locally modify the appearance of the make-up so as to generate a desired pattern.

[0170] The foundation may be removed during step b) by being placed in contact with a surface having a plurality of regions with different physicochemical properties.

[0171] In this case, the surface is particularly preferably placed in contact with the foundation deposit and removed relative to the foundation deposit so as to remove the foundation locally and to obtain a pattern, in particular the desired discontinuous network of islands.

[0172] The surface particularly preferably comprises a plurality of regions with different retention properties with respect to the foundation composition: the surface comprises, for example, a plurality of absorbent and / or adhesive areas, in particular deposits of absorbent and / or adhesive compositions, which, upon contact with the foundation, allow the foundation to be removed.

[0173] At least one of the following materials may be used as the material constituting the adhesive area: oily, particularly thick, deposits, optionally having a viscosity between 2 Pa.s and 200 Pa.s, materials combining polymers or polymers with plasticizers having a Tg smaller than 10°C, optionally smaller than 4°C, and / or pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA).

[0174] More specifically, as the material constituting the adhesive area, use may be made of an elastomer, to which a plasticizer or solvent capable of lowering the Tg may be added.

[0175] These elastomers may be acrylic or methacrylic polymers, or acrylic or methacrylic copolymers, rarely crosslinked or non-crosslinked rubbers, or styrene-, butadiene-, butylene- and isoprene-based copolymers. In particular, use may be made of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS), styrene-ethylene / butylene-styrene (SEBS), styrene-ethylene / propylene (SEP) and styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS).

[0176] The use of thick oils and the use of pressure sensitive adhesives can be advantageous in removing the material if the foundation is relatively dry or powdery. The term "relatively dry" means that the coating does not have a greasy feel.

[0177] The absorbent area preferably allows the foundation to be removed by capillary action, in which case it is possible to use an absorbent area that is provided with, and in particular consists of, a fabric (an assembly of fibers that takes up the foundation between the fibers), a cardboard, a flocked support, one or more holes or one or more alveoli.

[0178] The flocked support may comprise an assembly of fibres held at one end, the fibres preferably having a diameter between 2 μm and 200 μm and a length between 0.2 mm and 5 mm.

[0179] These fibres can preferably comprise, in particular consist of, a polymer, preferably a polyamide, preferably polyamide 6-6 (Nylon®). A mixture of fibres of different sizes may be used, for example a mixture of fibres with a diameter of 200 μm and 10 μm.

[0180] When the absorbent region comprises one or more holes or pores, the diameter and depth of these holes or pores may be between 0.3 mm and 5 mm.

[0181] The absorbent zone may also comprise undulations, in particular made from cardboard or elastomeric material with a Young's modulus of less than or equal to 100 MPa. These undulations have a height of, for example, between 1 mm and 5 mm and a size, measured at the tip, of between 0.3 mm and 5 mm. The average space between two adjacent undulations may be between 0.1 mm and 1 mm.

[0182] It is also possible, preferably, to use absorbent areas which take up the foundation by surface tension effects, in which case the absorbent areas can have a high surface tension, for example greater than 40 mN / m.

[0183] The absorbent area capable of taking up the foundation by surface tension effects may be made, for example, from a metal, in particular from iron, from a metal oxide or from a ceramic, or from a polymer, the surface tension of which may be higher than that of the skin and higher than that of the foundation composition.

[0184] Areas that are absorbent due to capillary action or surface tension may advantageously be relatively easy to clean after use.

[0185] As a variant, the use of hydrophilic materials, such as magnesia powder, or hollow materials, such as pozzolana powder, or absorbent excipients, such as ceramic or sintered materials, may be made.

[0186] Oil-absorbing excipients that may be mentioned in particular are: - silica powders such as porous silica microspheres, polydimethylsiloxane-coated amorphous silica microspheres, silylated silica powders, in particular the powder sold under the name Dow Corning VM-2270 Aerogel Fine Particles by Dow Corning and the powder sold under the name Enova Aerogel MT1100 by Cabot, amorphous hollow silica particles, and precipitated silica powders surface-treated with mineral waxes; - Acrylic polymer powders such as polymethyl methacrylate / ethylene glycol dimethacrylate porous spheres, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate / lauryl methacrylate copolymer powder, - Polyamide powders such as nylon-6 powder, - perlite powder or magnesium carbonate powder, and mixtures thereof Examples include:

[0187] As a variant, the foundation is taken off by suction during step b).

[0188] In this case, a suction surface with holes may be arranged close to, in particular in contact with, the foundation deposit, so that the foundation can be taken up by suction through said holes during step b).

[0189] The suction is preferably carried out using a suction device generating a suction power of between 10 W and 1000 W, preferably between 20 W and 200 W. However, it is particularly useful for the treatment of relatively small surface areas, e.g. 2 When suction is performed in an area less than 10 W, suction powers less than 10 W may be used.

[0190] For example, use may be made of an assembly including a turbine suction of the above mentioned force.

[0191] The suction device may be equipped with a suction nozzle to which a suction surface having a hole is attached, for example by click-fastening.

[0192] The suction surface may be in the form of a sheet-form element with holes. The area of ​​the area in which the holes are present (including the area of ​​the holes) is, for example, 10 cm 2 From 150cm 2 Between, for example, 50 cm 2 From 80cm 2 It is between.

[0193] The perforated suction surface comprises perforations having a size of, for example, 2 mm or less, preferably less than 1 mm, for example between 300 μm and 500 μm. The perforated suction surface preferably comprises at least 50 perforations, for example between 50 and 150 perforations.

[0194] To perform suction, the suction device and the suction surface with holes may be placed close to the foundation pile and then, without moving, the suction is turned on for a few seconds.

[0195] It is particularly advantageous to use suction to topically remove liquid, greasy or water-based foundations or powder foundations.

[0196] In one example embodiment, the foundation is moved during step b) by being placed in contact with a plurality of undulations supported by the tool surface.

[0197] These undulations have for example a height between 1 mm and 5 mm and a diameter, measured at the tip, between 0.3 mm and 5 mm.

[0198] In one example embodiment, the foundation is transferred during step b) by spraying the material.

[0199] To do this, use may be made of a spray device generating a spray power of between 10 W and 1000 W, preferably between 20 W and 200 W. However, it is particularly useful for spraying onto a relatively small surface area, e.g. 4 cm 2 When spraying is performed in an area less than 10 W, a propulsion force of less than 10 W may be used.

[0200] For example, a blower equipped with a turbine or fan of the aforementioned force may be used.

[0201] The spray device may be equipped with a spray nozzle to which a suction surface with holes is attached, for example by snapping in. This surface with holes may have the same properties as the suction surface with holes described above.

[0202] To perform spraying, the spray device and the surface with the holes may be placed close to the foundation pile and then, without moving, the spraying is turned on for a few seconds.

[0203] It is particularly advantageous to use a spray of material to transfer topically liquid, greasy or water-based foundations, emulsion formulation foundations or powder foundations.

[0204] In this case, the foundation can be moved by a gas flow, in particular a spray of compressed air.

[0205] As a variant, the foundation is transferred by spraying a powder composition and / or by spraying a liquid, in which case a solvent capable of dissolving the foundation composition can be sprayed onto the foundation deposit.

[0206] Solvents that may be used to dissolve the foundation composition may include alkanes, particularly hexane, isododecane or octane, silicones, particularly PDMS, ether, acetone, ethanol, water, and mixtures thereof.

[0207] In one example embodiment, the foundation is moved during step b) by applying an electromagnetic field, the foundation preferably comprising particles of non-zero magnetic susceptibility and applied close to the foundation deposit such that the magnetic field moves these particles. In this case, the foundation may comprise iron-based or rare earth metal-based particles and the strength of the applied magnetic field may be between 1 mT and 2 T.

[0208] Discontinuous network of islands As mentioned above, the removal and / or displacement of the foundation carried out in step b) preferably makes it possible to obtain a discontinuous network of islands.

[0209] The discontinuous network of islands can include contiguous islands and disjoint islands. As a variation, the discontinuous network of islands can consist of a set of disjoint islands.

[0210] The discontinuous network of islands preferably has the following characteristics: a) the islands have an average size between 0.05 mm and 3 mm, preferably between 0.1 mm and 1.5 mm, particularly preferably between 0.3 mm and 0.9 mm, and / or b) the average separation distance between two adjacent islands is between 0.25 mm and 20 mm, preferably between 0.5 mm and 5 mm, particularly preferably between 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm, and / or c) the discontinuous network comprises at least 5, preferably at least 10, preferably at least 30, particularly preferably at least 100 islands may have all or some of the following:

[0211] The size of an island corresponds to its largest dimension.

[0212] The average island size corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the island sizes.

[0213] The distance between two islands corresponds to the separation of the centres of gravity of the foundation areas covered by said islands.

[0214] The average distance between two adjacent islands corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the separation distances of the two adjacent islands over the number of pairs of adjacent islands.

[0215] The size of the islands and the distance between two islands are measured immediately after the foundation removal and / or transfer has been carried out, unless otherwise stated.

[0216] The density of the islands in the discontinuous network is preferably 1 cm per cm of surface area of ​​skin covered by the foundation. 2 5 islands per cm 2 Less than 1000 islands per

[0217] - islands with an average size between 0.4 mm and 4 mm, - the average separation distance between two adjacent islands is between 1 mm and 5 mm; - 1cm 2 Number of islands greater than 1 per A discontinuous network of islands having preferably is obtained to form a pattern which replicates the appearance of freckles.

[0218] The islands are preferably formed according to a predefined pattern, which is described in detail herein below.

[0219] For example, the appearance associated with freckles may advantageously be reproduced by creating a discontinuous network of islands having at least two regions where the islands differ in at least one of their appearance characteristics.

[0220] Thus, the discontinuous network can include a first region and a second region, where the islands present in the first region and the islands present in the second region differ at least in color and / or average size and / or density and / or shape and / or gloss.

[0221] Preferably, the discontinuous network comprises a first region and a second region, and the islands present in the first region and the islands present in the second region differ at least in color and / or average size and / or density.

[0222] The discontinuous network can also include a first region and a second region, where the islands present in the first region and the islands present in the second region differ in color from all or a portion of the deposit of foundation composition in terms of at least the colorimetric difference Δε in CIELab space.

[0223] Note that ΔE is defined by the following relation:

[0224]

number

[0225] where L1, a1, b1 are the coordinates in the colorimetric space of the first color to be compared and L2, a2, b2 are the coordinates in the colorimetric space of the second color in the CIELab system (index L is luminance, index a is red, index b is yellow).

[0226] This measurement of ΔΕ between a first area of ​​the face with few or no islands and a second area of ​​the face with more islands can be performed using a Chromasphere. The following protocol can be used: 100 mg of foundation is weighed and applied to the face with a bare finger. The foundation can then be locally transferred and / or removed. After a drying time of 15 minutes, images of the made-up cheek on the first area and on the second area, respectively, are taken using a Chromasphere.

[0227] The measured difference corresponding to ΔE reflects the desired non-uniformity.

[0228] Such variations in the appearance characteristics of the islands may advantageously make it possible to recreate a natural effect.

[0229] Advantageously, it is possible to obtain a discontinuous network of islands, the first region having a greater island density than the island density of a second region, the first region being on the cheek and the second region being on the periocular area or forehead.

[0230] In particular, it is possible to obtain a discontinuous network of islands in which a first region has an island density greater than the island density of a second region and a third region, the first region being located on the cheek, and the second region and the third region being located on the periocular area and forehead, respectively.

[0231] The resulting islands may have a colour difference ΔE in the CIELab space that is greater than or equal to 1, in particular greater than or equal to 3, relative to the colour of all or part of the deposit of foundation composition.

[0232] Properties of the cosmetic device according to the present invention As mentioned above, according to another of the aspects of the invention, the invention relates to a cosmetic device having a peripheral surface including islands that are unevenly arranged within the peripheral surface, each island having a maximum dimension of at least 0.8 mm and having a shape and / or property for taking up and / or releasing a product present on the skin or to be applied to the skin that differs from the shape and / or property of the surrounding surface so as to result in the generation of a pattern on the skin whose appearance is related to the arrangement of the islands on the surface.

[0233] The islands may be undulating and protruding relative to the surrounding surface, in which case, as will be explained in more detail herein below, the islands may be placed in contact with makeup composition applied to the skin, thereby locally enabling the movement of said makeup composition to obtain a desired pattern.

[0234] In this case, release or entrapment of the product may result from an affinity of the product for the islands.

[0235] In one example embodiment, the islands have different physico-chemical properties than the physico-chemical properties of the surrounding surface.

[0236] Preferably, the islands comprise, in particular consist of, adhesive and / or absorbent islands, in particular of a deposit of an adhesive composition and / or an absorbent composition.

[0237] At least one of the following products may be used as adhesive composition: oily, particularly thick, deposits, optionally having a viscosity between 2 Pa.s and 200 Pa.s, materials combining polymers or polymers with plasticizers having a Tg smaller than 10° C., optionally smaller than 4° C., and / or pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA).

[0238] More specifically, as material constituting the deposit of the adhesive composition, use may be made of an elastomer, to which a plasticizer or solvent capable of lowering the Tg may be added.

[0239] These elastomers may be acrylic or methacrylic polymers, or acrylic or methacrylic copolymers, rarely crosslinked or non-crosslinked rubbers, or styrene-, butadiene-, butylene- and isoprene-based copolymers. In particular, use may be made of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS), styrene-ethylene / butylene-styrene (SEBS), styrene-ethylene / propylene (SEP) and styrene-isoprene-styrene (SIS).

[0240] The use of thick oils and the use of pressure sensitive adhesives can be advantageous in removing the material if the foundation is relatively dry or powdery. The term "relatively dry" means that the coverage does not have a greasy feel.

[0241] The deposit of the absorbent composition preferably allows the foundation to be removed by capillary action. In this case, it is possible to use an absorbent composition that comprises, in particular consists of, a fabric (an assembly of fibers that takes up the foundation between the fibers), cardboard, a flocked support, one or more holes or one or more alveoli. It is also possible to locally absorb the foundation by using absorbent islands in the form of one or more holes or one or more alveoli.

[0242] The flocked support may comprise an assembly of fibres held at one end, the fibres preferably having a diameter between 2 μm and 200 μm and a length between 0.2 mm and 5 mm.

[0243] These fibres can preferably comprise, in particular consist of, a polymer, preferably a polyamide, preferably polyamide 6-6 (Nylon®). A mixture of fibres of different sizes may be used, for example a mixture of fibres with a diameter of 200 μm and 10 μm.

[0244] When the absorbent islands comprise one or more holes or pores, the diameter and depth of these holes or pores may be between 0.3mm and 5mm.

[0245] The pile of absorbent composition may also comprise undulations, in particular made of cardboard or elastomeric material with a Young's modulus of less than or equal to 100 MPa. These undulations have a height of, for example, between 1 mm and 5 mm and a size, measured at the tip, of between 0.3 mm and 5 mm. The average space between two adjacent undulations may be between 0.1 mm and 1 mm.

[0246] Preferably, it is also possible to use absorbent islands which take up the foundation by surface tension effects, in which case the absorbent islands may have a high surface tension, for example greater than 40 mN / m.

[0247] The absorbent islands capable of taking up foundation by surface tension effects may be made, for example, from metal, in particular from iron, from metal oxides or ceramics, or from polymers, and their surface tension may be higher than that of the skin and higher than that of the foundation composition.

[0248] Islands that are absorbent through capillary action or surface tension may advantageously be relatively easy to clean after use.

[0249] As a variant, the use of hydrophilic materials, such as magnesia powder, or hollow materials, such as pozzolana powder, or absorbent excipients, such as ceramic or sintered materials, may be made.

[0250] Oil-absorbing excipients that may be mentioned in particular are: - silica powders such as porous silica microspheres, polydimethylsiloxane-coated amorphous silica microspheres, silylated silica powders, in particular the powder sold under the name Dow Corning VM-2270 Aerogel Fine Particles by Dow Corning and the powder sold under the name Enova Aerogel MT1100 by Cabot, amorphous hollow silica particles, and precipitated silica powders surface-treated with mineral waxes; - Acrylic polymer powders such as polymethyl methacrylate / ethylene glycol dimethacrylate porous spheres, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate / lauryl methacrylate copolymer powder, - Polyamide powders such as nylon-6 powder, - perlite powder or magnesium carbonate powder, and mixtures thereof Examples include:

[0251] In one preferred variant, the hydrophilicity of the islands may differ from the hydrophilicity of the surrounding surface.

[0252] The islands may thus be configured to allow removal of products, in particular foundation, applied to the skin while placed in contact therewith, such removal of the product advantageously making it possible to obtain a desired pattern.

[0253] The islands may be defined by pins that are movable relative to the surrounding surface, for example by electrically controlled actuators.

[0254] The use of pins that are movable relative to the surrounding surface advantageously allows the distribution of the islands to be altered, and in the context of the present invention, the user can thus personalize the placement of the islands within the device to obtain a pattern of their choosing, for example a particular desired skin grain and / or freckles on the skin.

[0255] In one implementation, the islands can be defined by grains of a product that can be transferred onto the skin and / or by a liquid. In this case, the product can advantageously be tinted. The liquid can make it possible to take up on a particular surface the product that is then transferred onto the skin. As a variant, a liquid is transferred onto the skin, the liquid being in this case preferably tinted.

[0256] The device may include islands having a greatest dimension of 2mm or more and / or islands having a greatest dimension of 3mm or more.

[0257] The device may include islands having a maximum dimension between 0.8 mm and 2 mm, islands having a maximum dimension between 2 mm (excluding limits) and 3 mm, and islands having a maximum dimension between 3 mm (excluding limits) and also 5 mm.

[0258] The number of islands having a maximum dimension between 0.8 mm and 2 mm may be greater than the number of islands having a maximum dimension between 2 mm (excluding limits) and 3 mm, and greater than the number of islands having a maximum dimension between 3 mm (excluding limits) and 5 mm.

[0259] The device may include islands of circular contour and / or islands of non-circular contour. The device may include contiguous and separated islands.

[0260] The device may include a greater number of islands of circular contour than the number of islands of non-circular contour.

[0261] The device may include adjacent islands spaced 2mm or greater apart.

[0262] Discontinuous network of visible areas As mentioned herein above, the use of a device according to the invention can advantageously make it possible to obtain a discontinuous network of visibility areas.

[0263] The discontinuous network of visible areas preferably has the following characteristics: a) the visible area has an average size between 0.05 mm and 3 mm, preferably between 0.1 mm and 1.5 mm, particularly preferably between 0.3 mm and 0.9 mm, and / or b) the average separation distance between two adjacent visible areas is between 0.25 mm and 20 mm, preferably between 0.5 mm and 5 mm, particularly preferably between 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm, and / or c) the discontinuous network has at least 5, preferably at least 10, preferably at least 30, particularly preferably at least 100 visible areas has all or some of the above.

[0264] The size of the visible area corresponds to its largest dimension.

[0265] The average size of the visible areas corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the sizes of said visible areas.

[0266] The distance between two visible areas corresponds to the separation of the centres of gravity of said visible areas.

[0267] In the particular case of the formation of visible areas by removal and / or displacement of foundation present on the skin, the distance between two visible areas corresponds to the separation of the centres of gravity of the areas of foundation covered by said visible areas.

[0268] The average distance between two adjacent visible areas corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the separation distances of the two adjacent visible areas over the number of pairs of adjacent visible areas.

[0269] The size of the visibility zone and the separation between two visibility zones are measured immediately after the end of use of the device according to the invention, unless otherwise stated.

[0270] The density of the visible areas in the discontinuous mesh is preferably 1 cm per cm of surface area of ​​the treated skin. 2 5 visible areas per cm 2 Smaller than 1000 visible areas per second.

[0271] - a visible area with an average size between 0.4 mm and 4 mm, - the average separation distance between two adjacent visible areas between 1 mm and 5 mm, - 1cm 2 Number of visible areas greater than 1 per A discontinuous network of visible areas having the features is preferably obtained to form a pattern which reproduces the appearance of freckles.

[0272] For example, the appearance associated with freckles may advantageously be reproduced by creating a discontinuous network of visible areas having at least two regions in which the visible areas differ in at least one of their appearance characteristics.

[0273] Thus, the discontinuous network can include a first region and a second region, where the visible areas present in the first region and the visible areas present in the second region differ at least in color and / or average size and / or density and / or shape and / or gloss.

[0274] Preferably, the discontinuous network comprises a first region and a second region, and the visible areas present in the first region and the visible areas present in the second region differ at least in terms of color and / or average size and / or density.

[0275] The discontinuous network can also include a first region and a second region, the visible area present in the first region and the visible area present in the second region differing in color from all or a portion of the deposit of the foundation composition in terms of at least the colorimetric difference ΔΕ in CIELab space.

[0276] Note that ΔE is defined by the following relation:

[0277]

number

[0278] where L1, a1, b1 are the coordinates in the colorimetric space of the first color to be compared and L2, a2, b2 are the coordinates in the colorimetric space of the second color in the CIELab system (index L is luminance, index a is red, index b is yellow).

[0279] This measurement of ΔE between a first area of ​​the face with little or no visible area and a second area of ​​the face with more visible area can be carried out using a saturation sphere. The following protocol can be used: 100 mg of foundation is weighed out and applied to the face with a bare finger. A reticulated visible area is then formed by carrying out the method according to the invention. After a drying time of 15 minutes, an image of the made-up cheek on the first area and on the second area, respectively, is taken using a saturation sphere.

[0280] The measured difference corresponding to ΔE reflects the desired non-uniformity.

[0281] Such a change in the appearance properties of the visible area can advantageously make it possible to reproduce natural effects.

[0282] Advantageously, it is possible to obtain a discontinuous network of visible areas, the first area being located on the cheek and the second area being located on the periocular area or forehead, the first area having a greater visible area density than the second area.

[0283] In particular, it is possible to obtain a discontinuous network of visible areas in which the first area has an island density greater than the visible area density of the second and third areas, the first area being located on the cheek and the second and third areas being located on the periocular area and forehead, respectively.

[0284] The resulting visible area may have a colour difference ΔE in the CIELab space that is greater than or equal to 1, in particular greater than or equal to 3, relative to the colour of all or part of the deposit of foundation composition.

[0285] The invention can be more clearly understood upon examination of the accompanying drawings. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0287] The drawings do not necessarily respect actual proportions due to concerns for clarity of the drawings.

[0288] FIG. 1 shows the make-up result on skin P obtained after the method according to the invention.

[0289] First, the skin P is coated with a foundation composition 1, this deposit 1 being, in some cases, continuous (i.e. integral), as shown, or, in one variant, discontinuously distributed over the surface of the treated skin P.

[0290] The foundation 1 may be liquid or powdery and may be applied, for example, by fingers or by using an applicator (sprayer, sponge, airbrush, etc.).

[0291] In a second step, the user applies the correction composition so as to form discontinuous deposits 20 of islands 2 of the correction composition on the skin P.

[0292] In one example embodiment, the user applies the make-up product in a second stage so as to form a discontinuous network 20 of visible areas 2 on the skin P.

[0293] The present application may be carried out, for example, using the devices depicted in FIGS.

[0294] The islands 2 are separated within the discontinuous deposit 20 by a distance d connecting the centroids of the involved islands. The average separation distance between two adjacent islands 2 (arithmetic mean for the number of adjacent pairs of islands 2 that make up the discontinuous deposit 20) is, for example, between 0.5 mm and 5 mm.

[0295] When the discontinuous network of visible areas is formed, adjacent visible areas 2 are separated in the discontinuous network 20 by a distance d connecting the centroids of the relevant visible areas. The average separation distance of two adjacent visible areas 2 (arithmetic mean for the number of adjacent pairs of visible areas 2 constituting the discontinuous network 20) ​​is, for example, between 0.5 mm and 5 mm.

[0296] Figure 2 shows a top view of figure 1. The islands 2 or visible areas 2 can have different shapes, some islands 2 or visible areas 2 for example having a circular shape and other islands 2 or visible areas 2 having an oval shape, in particular an elliptical shape.

[0297] As a variant, all of the islands 2 or visible areas 2 making up the discontinuous deposit 20 or discontinuous network 20 may have substantially the same shape.

[0298] FIG. 3 shows one variation in which discontinuous deposits 20 of islands 2 of the corrective composition include islands 2 that are in contact, thus forming clusters 21 of islands 2, and islands 2 that are separate.

[0299] FIG. 3 can also represent one variation in which the discontinuous network 20 of visible areas 2 includes visible areas 2 that are in contact, thus forming a collection 21 of visible areas 2, and visible areas 2 that are separated.

[0300] 4 is a cross-sectional view of the surface of skin P made up according to the invention and covered with a product 81, in particular a foundation deposit 1 covered with a continuous deposit of a corrective composition 81 comprising a visible substance 4. The visible substance 4 can give the product an inhomogeneous appearance.

[0301] In one variant not shown, the product comprising the visible substance 4 , in particular the corrective composition 81 , is deposited discontinuously on the foundation deposit 1 .

[0302] In one variant not shown, the product, and in particular the corrective composition 81, is deposited discontinuously only on a portion of the foundation deposit.

[0303] The visible substance 4 advantageously makes it possible, for example, to produce relief unevenness which gives the made-up surface a more natural appearance.

[0304] The visible material 4 is shown to be fibers. As a variant, other types of particles may be used, such as separate granules or agglomerates of granules.

[0305] 5 shows a make-up result according to the invention, in which the discontinuous deposit 20 of islands 2 comprises first regions 30 and second regions 31. The discontinuous deposit 20 obtained after the make-up method according to the invention may comprise at least 10, preferably at least 30 islands 2.

[0306] The first region 30 is on the cheek as shown, and the second region 31 is in the periocular area.

[0307] The make-up according to the invention shown in FIG. 5 shows that the density of islands 2 present in the first regions 30 is greater than the density of islands 2 present in the second regions 31 .

[0308] The density of the island portions 2 present in the first region 30 is, for example, at least twice, particularly at least five times, the density of the island portions 2 present in the second region 31 .

[0309] First and second regions may be created whose islands differ from each other by other characteristics, such as color, average size, shape, and / or gloss.

[0310] In one variant not shown, the first area 30 is on the cheek and the second area 31 is on the forehead.

[0311] Discontinuous network of visible areas 2 In one embodiment example, Fig. 5 shows a make-up result according to the invention, in which the discontinuous network 20 of visible areas 2 comprises a first region 30 and a second region 31. The discontinuous network 20 obtained after the make-up method according to the invention can comprise at least 10, preferably at least 30, visible areas 2.

[0312] The first region 30 is on the cheek as shown, and the second region 31 is in the periocular area.

[0313] The make-up according to the invention shown in FIG. 5 shows that the density of the visible areas 2 present in the first areas 30 is greater than the density of the visible areas 2 present in the second areas 31 .

[0314] The density of the visible areas 2 present in the first regions 30 is, for example, at least twice, in particular at least five times, the density of the visible areas 2 present in the second regions 31 .

[0315] First and second regions may be created whose visible areas differ from each other by other characteristics, such as color, average size, shape, and / or gloss.

[0316] In one variant not shown, the first area 30 is on the cheek and the second area 31 is on the forehead.

[0317] FIG. 1A shows a make-up result on skin P obtained after one variant of the method according to the invention.

[0318] First, the skin P is covered with a foundation composition 1, this deposit 1 being, in some cases, continuous (i.e. integral), as shown, or, in one variant, discontinuously distributed over the surface of the treated skin P.

[0319] The foundation 1 may be liquid or powdery and may be applied, for example, by fingers or by using an applicator (sprayer, sponge, airbrush, etc.).

[0320] In a second step, the user locally removes the foundation so as to form on the skin P a discontinuous network 20A of islands 2A or of visible areas 2A.

[0321] As shown, it is possible to obtain a modification of the shape of the free surface S of the foundation deposit 1 by islands 2A in the form of depressions or visible areas 2A, which results in a local reduction in the thickness e of the foundation deposit 1.

[0322] These depressions can be obtained by placing the foundation 1 in contact with an adhesive surface or by suction, as will be explained in more detail herein below.

[0323] The islands 2A are separated in the discontinuous network 20A by a distance d connecting the centroids of the areas 200A of the foundation covered by the relevant islands. The average separation distance between two adjacent islands 2A (arithmetic mean for the number of adjacent pairs of islands 2A that make up the discontinuous deposit 20A) is, for example, between 0.5 mm and 5 mm.

[0324] As a variant, adjacent visible areas 2A are separated within the discontinuous network 20A by a distance d connecting the centroids of the areas 200A of the foundation covered by the relevant visible areas. The average separation distance of two adjacent visible areas 2A (arithmetic mean for the number of adjacent pairs of visible areas 2A constituting the discontinuous network 20A) is, for example, between 0.5 mm and 5 mm.

[0325] 1B shows a variant in which the removal and / or movement of the foundation carried out in step b) leads to the creation of a free surface S of the foundation deposit 1 comprising reliefs such as depressions and / or ridges. As shown, the free surface S comprises a succession of depressions and ridges and thus constitutes a discontinuous network 20A of islands 2A or a discontinuous network 20A of visible areas 2A.

[0326] FIG. 1C shows an example of makeup according to the invention, where a film 110 of a tinted makeup composition is applied to the skin prior to application of the foundation composition 1.

[0327] Once a film of foundation composition 1 has been applied, it is possible to form foundation-free islands 2A or visible areas 2A within the foundation composition 1 by localized removal of the foundation 1.

[0328] Such removal can be accomplished using the device of FIG. 6 in which the pins 42 are made of an absorbent material.

[0329] In one variant not shown, the method according to the invention makes it possible locally to bring about the formation, within the foundation composition 1, of islands or visible areas in the form of depressions as shown in FIG. 1A.

[0330] The depressions or islands of foundation-free areas advantageously make it possible locally to modify the coverage of the foundation film and therefore the appearance of a made-up surface due to the presence of a film of underlying colored make-up.

[0331] FIG. 1D shows a make-up result according to the invention in which the chemical reagents present on the pins 42 of the device of FIGS. 6 and 7 have been applied to the foundation deposit 1. FIG.

[0332] The applied chemical reagents are capable of reacting with compounds present in the foundation so as to enable the foundation deposit 1 to locally change color to form a discontinuous network 20 of visible areas 2.

[0333] Adjacent visible areas 2 are separated in the discontinuous network 20 by a distance d connecting the centroids of the relevant visible areas. The average separation distance between two adjacent visible areas 2 (arithmetic mean for the number of adjacent pairs of visible areas 2 that make up the discontinuous network 20) ​​is, for example, between 0.5 mm and 5 mm.

[0334] Figure 6 shows a device 40 for forming a pattern, in particular a discontinuous network or discontinuous deposit 20 of visible areas, in the context of a method according to the invention. In this specification, reference is made randomly to the device 40, i.e. to the applicator 40, when the device 40 is used to apply a product to keratinous material, optionally carrying make-up.

[0335] The device 40 comprises a peripheral surface 41 including islands in the form of pins 42 intended to come into contact with the skin of the user or, as a variant, with a foundation deposit present thereon. The device 40 is configured such that, during its movement over the keratinous material, a rotational movement about an axis X is imposed in the peripheral surface 41. In this specification, reference is made randomly to the peripheral surface 41 or to the applicator 40, when the peripheral surface 41 is used to apply a product to the keratinous material, optionally carrying make-up.

[0336] In one example embodiment, the pins 42 are provided with the product (not shown) to be applied to the skin and rotate with their peripheral surface 41 in contact with the made-up keratinous material, allowing the transfer to produce a discontinuous network of visible areas.

[0337] In one example embodiment, the pins 42 are provided with the product (not shown) to be applied to the skin and rotate with their peripheral surface 41 in contact with the made-up keratinous material, thereby enabling the transfer to produce discontinuous deposits of islands of the corrective composition.

[0338] In one embodiment, the pins 42 consist of an absorbent material based on Nylon® flocking, comprising a mixture of 200 μm and 10 μm diameter fibers bonded together on a support. The pins 42 in this case, during contact with the foundation composition, make it possible locally to remove the foundation, so as to obtain a discontinuous network of islands or visible areas.

[0339] As a variant, the pins make it possible to move the foundation while in contact with the pins so as to obtain the pattern, in particular the desired discontinuous network of islands or of visible areas.

[0340] In one example embodiment, the pins 42 contain a chemical reagent (not shown), for example dihydroxyacetone, that allows the foundation to change color, and the peripheral surface 41 can be transferred by rolling in contact with the made-up keratinous material to obtain a discontinuous network of visible areas, in this case the foundation containing an amine capable of reacting with dihydroxyacetone to bring about a color change.

[0341] An example of a method for manufacturing a device 40 having pins 42 that can be used in conjunction with the method according to the present invention will now be described.

[0342] 8 shows an unfolded surface representation of peripheral surface 41. As shown, peripheral surface 41 includes islands of circular contours and islands of non-circular contours. This peripheral surface 41 also includes contiguous and separated islands.

[0343] This unfolded surface has, for example, dimensions of 30 mm x 20 mm.

[0344] Starting from the pattern shown in Figure 8, a 3D file is generated in .STL format using Solidworks® software, in which the axis x and axis y are as shown in Figure 8, and the z coordinate is -2 mm for the colored areas and 0 mm for the white areas.

[0345] Then, starting from this file, an object that serves as a mold is created, for example using a 3D printer (Objet 30 from Objet Geometries Ltd).

[0346] Cross-linkable silicone (Silflo) is deposited onto this mould so that all surfaces are covered to a thickness of approximately 2 mm.

[0347] After it has set solid, it is removed. The silicone is then glued onto a roller about 1 cm in diameter.

[0348] The roller is equipped with a handle and a rotating shaft, making it possible to rotate the roller without significant friction.

[0349] The roller thus obtained can then be placed in contact with a pad that delivers adhesive so as to obtain a deposit with selectively adhesive areas on its pins. These adhesive areas can allow the removal of the foundation by placing the device in contact with a foundation deposit applied to the skin so as to obtain a discontinuous network of islands.

[0350] FIG. 7 shows an embodiment variant of a device 40 that can be used in connection with the method according to the invention, which comprises a reservoir 43 containing a product, in particular a corrective composition, intended to be applied onto a foundation deposit present on the skin and arranged to gradually distribute this deposit onto the pins 42 of the application surface 41 as the applicator 40 moves and comes into contact with the made-up keratinous material.

[0351] By applying the product it is possible, for example, to locally migrate the foundation present on the skin so as to form a pattern, preferably a desired discontinuous network of visible areas.

[0352] The reservoir 43 contains, for example, calcium chloride particles and is arranged to gradually distribute these particles over the pins 42 of the surface 41 as the device 40 moves into contact with the made-up keratinous material. These particles, when applied by the device 40 to the foundation deposit, are capable of locally displacing the foundation so as to produce a desired pattern, in particular a discontinuous network of islands.

[0353] In one example embodiment not shown, the pins are configured to create discontinuous deposits of islands of shaded color correction composition during movement of the device, in other words, the pattern obtained using the device produces an optical effect that varies strictly monotonically in intensity as the device moves along all or part of the path taken by the device.

[0354] It is also possible to use devices in the form of a plate with pins and / or absorbent areas and / or holes.

[0355] In an example embodiment, the pins 42 are movable relative to the peripheral surface. Depending on the system used, the pins 42 can be moved manually, magnetically, or electromagnetically. The pins 42 can be movable along the peripheral surface 41 and / or can be extended or retracted to create relief on said peripheral surface.

[0356] In the latter case, the pins 42 may be covered with a finely textured elastic surface, so that when the pins are extended, ridges appear on this elastic surface. For example, Fig. 9A shows the peripheral surface 41 with the pins in a retracted state, and Fig. 9B shows the peripheral surface 41 with the pins 42 as they appear after application of an electromechanical force.

[0357] The roller then serves to take up the corrective composition and then, by transfer, deliver this corrective composition onto the skin by simple pressure.

[0358] In one particular case, an electro-sensitive surface is used as the array (dielectric silicone is used in the actuator), such that the surface contains a drop of liquid, for example a drop of oil.

[0359] A plate made of elastomer with several of these arrays is produced, each array being about 2 mm in size and 2 mm apart from its neighbours. Each array is electrically connected to a generator delivering about 500 V. It is possible to choose the arrays to be charged to obtain a desired pattern, in particular to obtain a random array.

[0360] When a charge is delivered, the electrosensitive surface of each actuated array retracts, thus pushing against the liquid, thus causing the array to expand. Arrays that are not electrically actuated retain their original flat shape.

[0361] Such arrays are described in the publication "Millimetre-scale bubble-like dielectric elastomer actuators", Carpi et al., Polymer International (2009), Vol. 59, No. 3, pp. 407-414.

[0362] This array can be secured, for example by snapping, onto different types of surfaces (rollers, sponges, pads, or surfaces having a shape that matches a portion of the body) to form a cosmetic device that can be used in connection with the present invention.

[0363] This assembly then serves to take up the corrective composition and then, by transfer, deliver this corrective composition onto the skin by simple pressure.

[0364] It will be understood that according to one variant not shown, the device can have a peripheral surface equipped with a plurality of holes instead of the pins 42, through which the product, in particular the correcting composition, is distributed so as to obtain a pattern, in particular a desired discontinuous deposit of islands of the correcting composition or a desired discontinuous network of visible areas.

[0365] In this example embodiment, an alveolar material such as polyurethane foam may be used. Thus, a foam roller can be made and then part of its surface can be covered with an impermeable layer with holes, for example a smooth plastic handle with holes.

[0366] The handle has holes so that when the roller is pressed against the skin, the product, particularly the corrective composition, is transferred at the holes.

[0367] According to another variant not shown, the device comprises a number of areas of different, in particular hydrophilicity, instead of the pins 42. In this latter embodiment example, the corrective composition is preferentially present in the most hydrophilic areas, prior to application to the made-up surface, so as to form a discontinuous deposit of islands when applied.

[0368] The correction composition may also be selectively placed in the hydrophobic areas. In one such example embodiment, the hydrophilic areas may be made from aluminum and the hydrophobic areas may be made from copper or a silicone polymer, as in offset printing.

[0369] An ink containing a mixture of water and colored molecules can then be placed on the peripheral surface of the device: differences in surface tension will cause the water to locate in the hydrophilic areas and the colored molecules to locate in the hydrophobic areas.

[0370] The pattern can then be placed back onto the skin by simple transfer, either previously dried or not.

[0371] Devices may also be used which may or may not be uniformly covered with pigments which are non-transferable or poorly transferable when dry, after moistening said pigments with a suitable solvent, in particular with water, a product, in particular a corrective composition, which is transferable onto the made-up keratinous material is obtained.

[0372] Thus, by depositing the solvent in a particular pattern, it is possible to reproduce said pattern via transfer onto the skin by depositing a product, in particular a correction composition.

[0373] It is also possible to use devices with peripheral surfaces of non-uniform roughness or absorbency: in this example, two surfaces are used, one of which is quite smooth and the other is significantly rougher or more absorbent than the other.

[0374] For example, a viscous solution of a PSA adhesive polymer is deposited in a small area on a roller. The roller is then passed over a powder of small fibers (2 mm long, 20 μm in diameter). Only the adhesive areas hold the fibers.

[0375] When a roller thus treated is placed in contact with the product to be applied, in particular the correction composition, a large amount of said product, in particular the correction composition, accumulates in the areas with small fibers and can be delivered onto the skin by simple pressure.

[0376] It is also possible to use products that can be transferred onto the skin, in particular devices with discontinuous islands of corrective composition, with a smooth peripheral surface, which may be made of a less adhesive material such as PTFE.

[0377] The adhesion of the product, especially the correction composition, to the surrounding surface is sufficient to allow the roller to be operated.

[0378] Upon contact with the skin, the product, particularly the corrective composition, is transferred, leaving the roller with little or no product.

[0379] In one example embodiment, the product, particularly the islands of correction composition, supported by the peripheral surface are formed from a dry material, optionally with at least one of its faces being adhesive.

[0380] Upon contact with the made-up surface, the adhesive forces generated exceed the adhesive forces of the product, and in particular of the corrective composition, to the device and thus transfer occurs.

[0381] In another example embodiment, the product, particularly the correction composition, is formed from small fibers (typically 1 mm in length and 10 μm in diameter).

[0382] These small fibers are held to the peripheral surface of the device by electrostatic attraction and / or by a fluid and / or adhesive material. It will be understood that the device 40, according to one variant not shown, can have a surface 41 with pins 42, said pins comprising or consisting of a deposit of an adhesive composition. In this case, when the device 40 comes into contact with a foundation deposit, this deposit can be locally removed by the adhesive so as to form a discontinuous network of islands.

[0383] When the device comprises multiple adhesive areas, adhesion can be restored before each use, in particular by contact on a pad that delivers adhesive in a predefined pattern. As a variant, adhesion can be restored after washing, for example by removing a previously applied foundation composition.

[0384] In one example embodiment not shown, the pins are configured to pick up graduated shades of foundation composition during movement of the device, in other words the pattern obtained by picking up foundation creates an optical effect that changes strictly monotonically in intensity as the device moves along all or part of the path taken by the device.

[0385] It will be understood that, according to a variant not shown, the device 40 can have a suction surface 41 equipped with a number of holes instead of the pins 42, and the foundation can be taken up by suction through said holes when the device 40 is close to, for example in contact with, the foundation deposit. Suction of the foundation through the holes can make it possible to obtain a desired pattern, in particular a desired discontinuous network of visible areas. In this case, the device can be fixed or movable relative to the foundation deposit.

[0386] According to another variant not shown, the device 40 comprises, instead of the pins 42, a number of regions which differ in particular in hydrophilicity, for example a number of islands which differ in hydrophilicity from the neighbouring surfaces which surround them.

[0387] In the latter embodiment, the foundation may be selectively taken up in the most hydrophilic areas to obtain a desired pattern, particularly a desired discontinuous network of islands.

[0388] As a variant, the product can be present selectively in the most hydrophilic areas prior to application to the made-up surface, so as to form the desired pattern during its application.

[0389] As a variant, the foundation can be selectively taken up in the most hydrophobic areas to obtain a desired pattern, in particular a desired discontinuous network of islands.

[0390] The product may also be selectively placed in the hydrophobic areas.

[0391] In this case, as in offset printing, the hydrophilic areas may be made from aluminium and the hydrophobic areas from copper or a silicone polymer.

[0392] It is also possible to use devices with surfaces of non-uniform roughness or absorbency: in this example, two surfaces are used, one of which is quite smooth and the other is significantly rougher or more absorbent than the other.

[0393] For example, a viscous solution of a PSA adhesive polymer is deposited in a small area on a roller. The roller is then passed over a powder of small fibers (2 mm long, 20 μm in diameter). Only the adhesive areas hold the fibers.

[0394] When a roller thus treated is placed in contact with a pile of foundation, the areas with the smaller fibers will receive a larger amount of foundation.

[0395] Depending on the arrangement of the adhesive areas and therefore of the fibres, a pattern formed on the made-up surface can be imposed, in particular an arrangement of discontinuous islands in the form of a network.

[0396] It is also possible to use a device in the form of a plate with several absorbent areas making it possible to take up the foundation so as to obtain the desired pattern.

[0397] It is also possible to use a device in the form of a plate with a number of holes through which the foundation can be sucked up to obtain the desired pattern.

[0398] It is also possible to use a device in the form of a plate with a number of pins that, when placed in contact with the foundation, allows the foundation to be displaced, said displacement making it possible to obtain the desired pattern.

[0399] To obtain the desired pattern, use may be made of sandpaper or a brush which allows the foundation to be removed by local contact.

[0400] The user can place the device in uneven contact with the foundation deposit to obtain a discontinuous network of islands.

[0401] It goes without saying that droplets can be sprayed through the holes which locally modify the morphology of the free surface in order to obtain a desired pattern, in particular a desired discontinuous network of islands.

[0402] It is also possible to use a "pad" type applicator with a movable end that can randomly change its position. This principle is based on a guide membrane with holes, which can be flexible or rigid. In each of the holes a small axle is placed. The length of the axle is greater than the thickness of the guide membrane. The system is equipped with means to prevent the axle from exiting the hole without preventing it from moving. For example, another membrane can be placed on the back that blocks the axle's exit, or each axle is held by an elastic area, or each axle has one or two protrusions that limit its movement beyond a certain course. The movable axles can be moved individually or in groups by simple mechanical pressure, by hydraulic pressure, by electromagnetic or electrostatic forces. A system makes it possible to hinder the axles so that they do not move during application. This system can use mechanical, electromagnetic or electrostatic forces, and the presence of friction is such that the force when applying is not sufficient to move the axle, or a brake system that moves the axle when activated and hinders the axle when activated. Finally, a final flexible membrane can be added on top of the group of mandrels. In this case, the mandrels do not contact the skin but press against the flexible membrane, which then gives the flexible membrane an undulation due to pressure. For example, the guide membrane has a thickness between 1 mm and 1 cm. The mandrels have a length between 2 mm and 2 cm. The diameter of the mandrels is, for example, between 0.3 mm and 5 mm. The mandrels may or may not include a circular cross section.

[0403] FIG. 10 shows one variant of an applicator 40 for applying discontinuous deposits of foundation composition 1 and islands 2 in a single application motion.

[0404] The applicator 40 comprises a first roller 44 which moves against the surface of the skin P to be treated and which provides a coating of powdery foundation 1 on its application surface 45. The first roller ensures application of the foundation 1 onto the skin P as it moves against the skin P.

[0405] The applicator 40 also comprises a second roller 46 with pins 42 on its application surface 41. These pins support the islands 2 of the corrective composition as shown, making it possible to gradually obtain discontinuous deposits 20 of the islands 2 on the foundation film 1 as the applicator 40 is moved against the skin P.

[0406] The device 40 of FIG. 10 may also make it possible to apply the foundation composition 1 and to form a discontinuous network 20 of the visible area 2 in a single application operation.

[0407] The device 40 comprises a first roller 44 which moves relative to the surface of the skin P to be treated and which provides a coating of powdery foundation 1 on its application surface 45. The first roller ensures application of foundation 1 onto the skin P as it moves relative to the skin P.

[0408] The device 40 also comprises a second roller 46 with pins 42 on its peripheral surface 41. These pins support the deposit 22 of product as shown and make it possible to gradually obtain a discontinuous network 20 of visible areas 2 on the foundation coating 1 as the device 40 is moved against the skin P.

[0409] Of course, in one variant not shown, the device can be equipped with pins formed from absorbent areas that locally make it possible to take up the foundation composition so as to form a discontinuous network of visible areas.

[0410] FIG. 11 shows an embodiment variant for obtaining an applicator 40 with discontinuous deposits of islands 2 of correction composition on its application surface 41.

[0411] The applicator 40 has, for example, a smooth application surface 41 and, as shown, is in the form of a roller with a handle portion 47 .

[0412] An imprinting die 100 with holes 101 is placed on the mass of powdered corrective composition as shown, the arrangement of the holes 101 relating to the pattern of the corrective composition to be obtained.

[0413] Upon contact with the imprinting mold 100 , the user moves the applicator 40 so that a set of islands 2 of the correction composition are deposited on the application surface 41 .

[0414] The applicator 40 is then able to apply islands 2 of corrective composition onto the foundation deposit so as to obtain a predefined pattern on the made-up surface.

[0415] FIG. 11A shows a variant of one embodiment for obtaining a device 40 having multiple deposits of adhesive composition 120 on its peripheral surface 41.

[0416] The device 40 has, for example, a smooth peripheral surface 41 and, as shown, is in the form of a roller with a handle portion 47 .

[0417] An imprint die 100 with holes 101 is placed, as shown, on a mass of powdery adhesive composition 120. The arrangement of the holes 101 relates to the pattern to be obtained.

[0418] Upon contact with the imprinting mold 100 , the user moves the device 40 so that multiple deposits of the adhesive composition 120 are deposited on the peripheral surface 41 .

[0419] The device 40 can then place the foundation deposit in contact with the adhesive composition 120 so as to locally take up the foundation and obtain a predefined pattern on the made-up surface.

[0420] As a variant, as explained above, the mass of adhesive composition 120 can be replaced by a mass of product to be applied to the keratinous material to obtain a device having on its peripheral surface a plurality of islands formed of the product that can be transferred onto the skin.

[0421] FIG. 12 shows a perforated shield 50 consisting of a plate 51 with a hole 52 .

[0422] The arrangement of the holes 52 corresponds to the pattern to be reproduced, in particular the arrangement of freckles to be reproduced on the made-up surface.

[0423] 13 illustrates the use of a method according to the invention, in which a shield 50 with holes is positioned to impinge on a deposit of foundation composition 1. A sprayer 60 is raised in line with the shield 50 and sprays the corrective composition through the holes 52 to form discontinuous deposits 20 of islands 2 of corrective composition.

[0424] As a variation, the correction composition may be sprayed directly onto the skin to form discontinuous deposits of islands of the correction composition, or may be applied spatially non-uniformly by the user.

[0425] The discontinuous deposits of islands of the correction composition can also be formed directly by using an inkjet printer. The printing devices described in FR 2933582 can generally be used.

[0426] Figures 14a and 14b show another means that can be used to spray the correction composition 81 in the form of droplets onto the foundation deposit.

[0427] As shown in Fig. 14a, a brush 90 is used, which comprises a support 92 to which flexible bristles 91 are connected. For example, a toothed brush is used. The bristles 91 carry the corrective composition 81. These bristles 91 are restrained, as shown in Fig. 14a.

[0428] The bristles 91 are then released and return to the equilibrium position shown in Figure 14b. In doing so, the correction composition 81 is sprayed in the form of droplets onto the surface to be treated.

[0429] Figure 15 shows the application of a continuous deposit 70 of the correction composition in a first stage. As shown in Figure 16, the correction composition is configured to form a discontinuous deposit 20 of islands after being applied to the foundation composition 1 by surface tension phenomena.

[0430] 17 and 18 show an embodiment variant of step b) according to the invention, which results in the transfer of the foundation by spraying of a material.

[0431] In this case, a nozzle 210 for spraying a powder composition comprising particles 211 is raised in line with the foundation deposit 1. The particles 211 are sprayed onto the foundation composition 1 and, on impact, bring about a change in the relief of the free surface S of the foundation 1, as shown in Figure 18. This change in relief makes it possible to obtain the desired discontinuous network 20A of islands 2A.

[0432] As a variant, Figure 18 shows a make-up result according to the invention, in which particles 211 are dispensed onto the foundation film 1 by the device shown in Figure 7. In this case, the pin locally displaces the foundation and thus brings about a modification of the shape of the free surface S of the foundation deposit 1 so as to form, as shown, a discontinuous network 20A of visible areas 2A, the pin also making it possible to displace the particles initially present in the reservoir 43.

[0433] Of course, as a variant, the medium in liquid form may be sprayed in order to obtain a change in relief by the impact of drops on the foundation.

[0434] As a variant, a solvent capable of dissolving the foundation composition may be sprayed, in particular to move said foundation and to produce the desired pattern, in particular the desired discontinuous network of islands.

[0435] In one variant not shown, the foundation can be transferred by spraying with compressed air.

[0436] 19 and 20 show an embodiment variant in which a plate 50 with holes 52 is arranged to rest against the foundation deposit 1.

[0437] A suction system 220 comprising a handle portion 221 and a suction section 222 is positioned close to the foundation pile 1 such that a plate 50 with holes is inserted between the foundation 1 and the suction system 220 .

[0438] The user then starts suction, as shown in Figure 19. Suction is mainly performed in the foundation areas aligned with the holes and the suction system. It is thus possible locally to take up the foundation composition 1 by suction so as to obtain the desired discontinuous network 20A of islands 2A.

[0439] As a variant, a mold can be applied to the deposit of foundation composition, and then a pad with an absorbent composition can be applied to the mold, the foundation being taken up by the absorbent composition through the holes in the mold, and the pattern obtained on the foundation composition is then related to the arrangement of the holes in the mold.

[0440] FIG. 21 shows a perforated shield 50 consisting of a plate 51 with a hole 52 .

[0441] The arrangement of the holes 52 corresponds to the pattern to be reproduced, in particular the arrangement of freckles to be reproduced on the made-up surface.

[0442] Figure 21 shows the use of the method according to the invention, in which a shield 50 with holes is positioned to impinge on a deposit of foundation composition 1. A nozzle 210 for spraying particles 211 is raised in line with the shield 50 and sprays said particles through holes 52. On impact with the foundation 1, the particles 211 modify the morphology of the free surface S of the foundation deposit 1 so as to form a discontinuous network 20A of islands 2A, as shown.

[0443] Figures 22A to 22D show the different steps of the method according to the invention: A sprayer 122 is raised relative to a support 123 onto which it sprays droplets 121 of an adhesive compound dissolved in a solvent.

[0444] After the solvent has dried, a support is obtained as shown in Fig. 22B, which comprises a plurality of deposits of adhesive composition 120. This support constitutes an example of a device 40 according to the invention, which comprises a peripheral surface 41 on which are arranged islands, here in the form of deposits of adhesive composition 120.

[0445] The support of Fig. 22B is placed in contact with the foundation deposit 1 shown in Fig. 22C. A modification of the morphology of the free surface S of the foundation 1 is thus obtained by local incorporation of the foundation by the deposit of adhesive composition.

[0446] It is thus possible to obtain a discontinuous network 20A of visible areas 2A, the arrangement of which relates to the arrangement of the deposits of adhesive composition 120 on the support 123, making it possible to reproduce, for example, the appearance of freckles.

[0447] In one variant, droplets of a solid compound dissolved in a solvent at a high concentration are sprayed onto the support. Then, after the solvent has dried, the solid compound present on the support is placed in contact with the foundation. The deposition of the solid compound allows the movement of small portions of material, thus creating the desired pattern, especially the desired discontinuous network in the visible areas.

[0448] The purpose of Figures 23A to 23C is in particular to show that application of a product by means of a device according to the invention can be carried out before application of a foundation composition to the skin.

[0449] 23A illustrates the deposition of a chemical reagent 300 onto multiple areas of skin P. This deposition can be performed, for example, using the device 40 shown in FIG.

[0450] The foundation composition 1 is then applied to the skin P such that it is placed in contact with the chemical reagent 300, as shown in FIG. 23B.

[0451] FIG. 23C shows diagrammatically the discontinuous network 20 of visible areas 2 obtained after reaction of the chemical reagent 300 with compounds present in the foundation 1.

[0452] FIG. 24 shows the separate adjustment unit. a powder foundation composition 1, a particulate correction composition 81; an applicator 40 with an application surface 41 carrying pins 42 for applying said correction composition to a foundation deposit; a mask 50 consisting of a plate 51 with holes 52 whose arrangement reproduces, for example, the freckle pattern to be obtained; - a sprayer 60 for applying the correction composition in the form of droplets onto the foundation deposit 1; 1 shows a makeup kit according to the present invention, comprising:

[0453] As a variant, the make-up kit according to the invention comprises in a separate adjustment unit: a powder foundation composition 1, - a device 40 comprising a surface 41 with pins 42 for moving and / or picking up foundation present on the skin; a mask 50 consisting of a plate 51 with holes 52 whose arrangement reproduces, for example, the freckle pattern to be obtained; a spray system 60 for applying material, in particular droplets, onto the foundation so as to locally transfer the foundation; Equipped with.

[0454] FIG. 25 shows a makeup kit according to the present invention comprising a correction composition sprayer 60 and a set of shields 50 having holes, the arrangement of the holes 52 in the shields 50 being related to the correction composition pattern to be obtained.

[0455] The various shields 50 present in this assembly have different placement of holes 52 .

[0456] Thus, a user can select the corrective composition pattern to be obtained, for example a predefined freckle pattern, by selecting the obscurant 50 over another obscurant.

[0457] The invention thus makes it possible to personalize make-up.

[0458] Figures 26 and 27 show an assembly 80 according to the invention comprising several devices 40 and also a foundation product 1 to be applied with these devices 40. The devices 40 differ in the arrangement of the pins 42 on the peripheral surface 41. Each device therefore allows the generation of a different pattern on the surface of the made-up skin.

[0459] Before carrying out the method according to the invention, the user can select devices within this assembly 80, which the user can choose to generate a predefined pattern.

[0460] (Example) Example 1 The first, very covering foundation (Dermablend Professional, light color) is applied first. At this stage, the irregularities are hidden, but the appearance cannot possibly be considered natural.

[0461] Then use the roller described in Figure 6. A small blotch of brown foundation (dark shade "Infaillible") approximately 1 mm wide is placed onto the pin.

[0462] The roller is then rolled over the skin of the cheeks and forehead, resulting in a small speckle transfer, creating a natural effect.

[0463] Once the treatment is over, the color difference will fade slightly by stroking with a cotton pad or using a brush.

[0464] Example 2 An application session was carried out aimed at evaluating the effect of a base containing small coloured fibres layered over a very high coverage foundation.

[0465] Although high coverage foundations make it possible to obtain very efficient masking of pigmentation disorders, they have the effect of making the complexion look dull and unnatural.

[0466] Tint creams containing small colored fibers were applied over a coat of high coverage foundation. The compositions of these tint creams are shown below.

[0467] [Table 1]

[0468] When applied over different foundations (Vichy Normaderm Teint, Dermablend Nude, Dermablend Professional), the tint cream optimizes the thin film uniformity, especially in terms of color result.

[0469] Tint creams provide better dissolution of the colored film of these various makeup products onto the skin, resulting in a more natural, less caked makeup result.

[0470] Example 3 Examples of correction compositions that are in fluid form during application and contain volatile solvents The foundation is applied to the skin and left on for a few minutes, leaving a film, then sprayed with a composition made from dimethyl ether (60%), water (20%), ethanol (18%) and brown dye (caramel color) (2%).

[0471] Evaporation leaves behind small islands of beige color that appear on top of the foundation coat.

[0472] Example 4 Examples of discontinuous deposits of islands formed by surface tension phenomena A foundation in which perfluoropolyether particles (Fomblin) are incorporated is applied. The entire layer is evenly covered over the skin. An aqueous composition fluid containing brown dye (caramel color) (2%) is then sprayed. After a few seconds, the aqueous composition evaporates and small islands of beige color remain on the film formed by the foundation.

[0473] Example 5 Example of discontinuous deposit of islands obtained by applying an electric field and / or a magnetic field and / or a positive pressure after application of a correction composition Iron filings (granules with an average size of 0.1 mm) are incorporated into the foundation at a rate of 1 g per 100 g of composition.

[0474] Next, after applying it to the face, the same foundation is applied to the surface of the cheek as a protective layer. The make-up is left on for about 5 minutes. A rare earth metal magnet, which is 1.4 cm in diameter and produces a magnetic field with a strength of 1.1 Tesla, is then placed 4 cm from the skin. After a few seconds, the magnet is removed. The magnetic field causes the particles to move slightly, so that they become visible, especially in the center of the cheek.

[0475] Example 6 A water-based, high-coverage first foundation is applied. At this stage, the unevenness is hidden, but the appearance is not natural.

[0476] Then, the roller described in Figure 6 is used (diameter 3 cm). The pins make it possible to deposit magnesia particles. Each particle is approximately 1 mm in size. The roller is rolled over the layer of magnesia. The roller is then rolled over the skin of the cheeks and forehead. A transfer of small spots is obtained, giving a natural effect.

[0477] In one particular option, the system includes a magnesia powder dispenser as shown in FIG.

[0478] Example 7 The make-up obtained in Example 6 is lightly brushed to remove or separate material in the areas where the magnesia has been deposited.

[0479] Example 8 Make-up is applied according to Example 6. The nozzle of a Dyson model DC30 cordless vacuum cleaner is then brought within 2 cm of the resulting makeup deposit. This vacuum cleaner produces approximately 300 W of power.

[0480] Localized removal of material in the areas where the magnesia was deposited is then effected by suction.

[0481] Example 9 Apply powder foundation (L'Oreal Paris "Accord parfait"), applying 4 coats in succession to create a thick layer.

[0482] At this stage, the irregularities are hidden but the appearance is less natural.

[0483] Next, use a roller (3 cm diameter) as described in Figure 6. Make pins of absorbent material based on Nylon® flocking, containing a mixture of 200 μm and 10 μm diameter fibers bonded together on a support. Each pin is 5 mm long and has a tip diameter of 1 mm.

[0484] The roller is rolled over the skin of the cheeks and forehead, then the foundation is locally removed to give a natural effect.

[0485] Clean the roller before reusing it to treat a different area of ​​the face.

[0486] Example 10 A tool is constructed formed from a platform drilled with 16 holes. 16 mandrels pass through the holes and are driven by a motor and a set of gears.

[0487] Thus, when observing the front, 16 mandrels are visible, protruding 1 millimeter from the base.

[0488] One flocked slug of size 1 mm is bonded to each mandrel.

[0489] Apply a thick coat of foundation.

[0490] Hold the base against the skin for 1 second and gently pat the makeup away. You will notice the formation of tiny particles that improve the makeup.

[0491] Example 11 A completely lipophilic foundation is applied, which is a mixture of PDMS silicone (44%), volatile silicone (D5) (26%), and white and brown pigments.

[0492] Take the device formed of a chamber connected on one side to a compressed air inlet and on the other side to a concave membrane (in the form of a cheek) perforated with 61 holes, each with a diameter of 0.3 mm. This membrane is rigidly attached to the chamber and has a length of 16 cm. 2 It has an area of.

[0493] After applying foundation, the user brings the device (membrane side) to within approximately 1 / 2 cm of the skin and applies a jet of compressed air (2 bar) for 1 second.

[0494] The user then removes the device and applies a stream at a greater distance (3 cm) at low pressure (0.5 bar) to gently cleanse the skin.

[0495] After final drying, the coating is found to have small grains.

[0496] Example 12 Granulated citric acid powder is placed in the same device as above, with each granule having a size of approximately 0.3 mm.

[0497] These granules are sprayed onto skin covered with an emulsion-based foundation.

[0498] Example 13 Acetone is placed in the same device as above.

[0499] Acetone is sprayed onto skin and pigments covered with a foundation based on an acrylate polymer (Resin 28-2930 from Akzo Nobel).

[0500] Example 14 A foundation is produced based on emulsion and ferrite granules (8%).

[0501] A 1.1 Tesla rare earth metal magnet is broken into pieces with a hammer.

[0502] Small pieces of magnets (approximately 1mm each) were glued together using Araldite® adhesive to form a 16cm 2 The solid film is adhered to the substrate.

[0503] After applying the foundation and before it has completely dried, the membrane is lifted up against the skin. After 1 second, the membrane is removed. Granules are observed in the coating.

[0504] Example 15 A water-based, high-coverage first foundation is applied. At this stage, the unevenness is hidden, but the appearance is not natural.

[0505] The roller described in FIG. 7 (diameter 3 cm) is then used. The reservoir placed in contact with the roller pin is a small metal chest (aluminium) 5 cm wide, 5 cm long and 1 cm deep. The chest contains the lipstick formulation. The small metal chest also has a small piston that can be manually operated to advance the lipstick formulation towards the outlet to ensure contact with the pin during use. The pin is capable of creating a negative pressure in the foundation and depositing colored spots. Each particle is approximately 1 mm in size. The roller is rolled over the skin of the cheek and forehead. A transfer of small spots is obtained, giving a natural effect.

[0506] Example 16 First, apply a very high coverage foundation.

[0507] At this stage, the irregularities are hidden but the appearance is not natural.

[0508] A roller (3 cm diameter) as described in Figure 6 is then used. Pins are made from absorbent material using cardboard cut into small cylindrical sticks. Each pin is 3 mm high and has a diameter of 1 mm at its tip and at its base. On contact, the pins absorb some of the foundation.

[0509] The roller is rolled over the skin of the cheeks and forehead, then the foundation is locally removed to give a natural effect.

[0510] Clean the roller before reusing it to treat a different area of ​​the face.

[0511] (Example 17) A first, very high coverage foundation is applied, which contains polyvinylamine (Lupamine® from BASF) at a rate of 4% of the active ingredients.

[0512] At this stage, the irregularities are hidden but the appearance is not natural.

[0513] Next, a roller as described in Figure 6 is used. Its tip is made of an absorbent material. DHA is deposited on this tip. The roller is then rolled over the skin of the cheeks and forehead. Small spots are obtained, giving a natural effect.

[0514] Features described in a shown variant may be combined with variants not shown.

[0515] The phrase "comprising a" should be understood to mean "comprising at least one."

[0516] The phrases "between" or "ranging from" should be understood to be inclusive.
