A bangle and makeup kit combination assembly and method of operation provide a personal adornment, such as an annular-shaped bangle, that discretely stores and efficiently dispenses individual components of a makeup kit. The assembly comprises a makeup kit comprising multiple makeup components, such as eye and brow liners, trays, mirrors, and a makeup applicator. The assembly further comprises a bangle having an outer ornamental cover that is defined by a decorative surface. The bangle further comprises an outer annular member, a middle makeup retention member having slots that correspond with makeup components, and an inner annular layer. The bangle also includes an edge locking mechanism that secures the annular members and makeup kit components into the ornamental bangle configuration until disassembly for access to the makeup kit is desired. In this manner, the bangle can be worn as an ornament, and then disassembled to access the makeup kit contained therein.

A make-up assistance method includes: acquiring a facial image of a user; acquiring a makeup effect image selected by the user; extracting a make-up region from the facial image of the user, and transmitting the makeup effect image and information about the make-up region to a makeup matching server; performing, by the makeup matching server, a skin detection on the make-up region, so as to obtain skin information of the facial image; determining, by the makeup matching server, at least one makeup plan matched with the make-up region according to the skin information and the makeup effect image; presenting the at least one makeup plan; determining a difference between the makeup effect image and the facial image using a preset algorithm; and generating makeup modification prompt information for a region in the makeup effect image or the facial image where the difference is greater than a threshold.

A smart mirror includes a mirror having a reflective surface and a transparent surface; an image capture device configured to capture images of the user; a display disposed proximate to the transparent surface of the mirror, the display configured to augment a reflection of the user; and a processor configured to: analyze images of the user to identify a plurality of reference points corresponding to facial features of the user; assess a symmetry of the facial features of the user using the plurality of reference points; generate an individualized cosmetic treatment program based on the symmetry of the facial features; and cause the display to augment a reflection of the user with a first cosmetic instruction, the first cosmetic instruction configured to aid the user in applying a cosmetic material onto a first area of a face of the user according to the individualized cosmetic treatment program.

A modular multi-compartment cosmetics container assembly may have plurality of layers configured to releasably couple to each other, permitting a user to attach and detach various different compartment layers, or to just shuffle multiple compartment layers that may store different items into more desirable positions in the arrangement. Releasable attachment is provided by each compartment layer being formed with a hinge pin proximate to a top portion of a side wall of the compartment, and a hinge knuckle disposed proximate to a bottom portion of the side wall, where the hinge knuckle has an opening permitting it to clip onto the hinge pin of the adjacent compartment layer. A latch releasably secures each compartment layer in a closed position. Each hinge knuckle and latch may be pivotally mounted to its compartment layer, permitting movement into a retracted position, so the compartment can sit flush on a flat surface.

A method includes capturing, using an Internet of Things (IoT) device, real-time video of a user performing an exercise associated with a first exercise class. Real-time video of the user is displayed, via a display, concurrently with video of an instructor, to provide a visual comparison of the user to the instructor. Image analysis of the real-time video of the user is performed to determine a performance of the user, and a representation thereof is displayed. Biometric data associated with the user is received at the IoT device from a wearable device at multiple points in time. Heart rates are identified based on the biometric data, and scores based on the heart rates are displayed via the display. A recommendation for a second exercise class different from the first exercise class is determined based on a profile of the user, and displayed via the display.

A smart mirror can show live or recorded streaming video of an instructor performing a workout in a package that is attractive and unobtrusive enough to hang in a living room. The smart mirror includes a mirror surface with a fully reflecting section and a partially reflecting section. A display behind the partially reflecting section shows the video when the smart mirror is on and is almost invisible when the smart mirror is off. The smart mirror also has a speaker, a microphone, and a camera to enable a user to view the video content and interact with the instructor. The smart mirror may connect to the user's smart phone, a peripheral device (e.g., a Bluetooth speaker) to augment user experience, a biometric sensor to provide biometric data to assess user performance, and/or a network router to connect the smart mirror to a content provider, an instructor, and/or other users.

A method includes capturing real-time video of a user participating in a first exercise class, using an Internet of Things (IoT) device. The real-time video is displayed concurrently with video of an instructor via a display in communication with the IoT device, to provide a visual comparison of the user to the instructor. The method also includes analyzing the real-time video to determine a performance of the user, and causing display of a warning, via the display, in response to determining the performance of the user. Biometric data associated with the user is received at the IoT device from a wearable device, at multiple times. Heart rates of the user are identified based on the biometric data, and scores based on the heart rates are identified and displayed. A recommendation for a second exercise class is determined based on a profile of the user and displayed via the display.
