A hair styling apparatus comprising a body from which a plurality of spaced projections project. The projections are in the form of comb teeth or brush bristles for passing through a user's hair to style the hair. The apparatus further comprises a steam generator for generating steam and one or more steam outlets in fluid communication with the steam generator for receipt of steam therefrom. The one or more steam outlets are arranged to discharge steam onto hair through which the projections are passed in use. The apparatus further comprises an air mover for moving an airflow through the apparatus, and one or more airflow outlets in fluid communication with the air mover for receipt of an airflow therefrom. The one or more airflow outlets are arranged to discharge air at or proximate to the discharged steam so as to provide a barrier to the passage of the steam.

The present invention provides a method of pretreatment for nail coating, the method including irradiating plasma to a nail, before the step of applying a nail coating liquid to the nail, wherein the gas used for generating the plasma is one or more gases selected from the group consisting of nitrogen gas, oxygen gas and carbon dioxide gas.

In a context of personal care devices (100) comprising an air conduit portion (101) and an airflow generating mechanism configured to generate an outgoing airflow from the air conduit portion (101), a mist dispensing unit (10) is provided that is configured to be arranged downstream of the air conduit portion (101). The dispensing unit (10) serves to generate and let out a mist of a care product, and comprises a container (40) configured to contain a quantity of the care product. The container (40) is generally shaped as a hollow body at least partially surrounding an air space (13). For example, the container (40) can be one of generally ring-shaped and generally C-shaped.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a bottle cap with integrated therapeutic functionalities for enhanced skin care applications. The bottle cap comprises a cap body with a built-in straw for fluid extraction, a contact plate for skin interaction, and a physiotherapy component powered by a battery and controlled via a circuit board. The physiotherapy component may include vibration, thermal, or microcurrent therapy to enhance the absorption and efficacy of skincare formulations. Additionally, the system may incorporate a light source for activating photosensitive precursors and ensuring sterilization for hygienic use. A drop sensor regulates liquid dispensation, ensuring precise application. The bottle cap is designed for compatibility with various skincare formulations, offering a multifunctional, portable, and user-friendly solution that streamlines skincare routines by eliminating the need for separate beauty tools.

The present invention includes a vessel portion for accommodating contents in a vessel body; a lower cover portion sealing the vessel body; a pressurizing portion pressurizing an interior of the vessel body to discharge the contents; and an auxiliary portion elevating and lowering the pressurizing portion, wherein in the pressurizing portion, an upward movement and a downward movement may occur alternately and repeatedly while the pressurizing portion pressurizes an interior of the vessel body to discharge the contents.
