Methods and systems for producing personalized products are provided. The method involves placing a plurality of ingredients in a primary container, heating at least a portion of the primary container to a temperature selected to melt the ingredients, placing the heated primary container into a centrifuge, blending the melted ingredients into a substantially homogeneous mixture by spinning the primary container in the centrifuge, and allowing the substantially homogeneous mixture to cool to form a solid product.

A tattoo ink mixing apparatus has a housing having a cavity, a plunger movable between a first position and a second position, and a dynamic member disposed in the cavity and adapted to engage with the plunger distal end. The dynamic member moves in response to movement of the plunger and alternatively creates a suction force and an expulsion force in the opening of the distal end of the housing as the plunger moves between its first and second positions.

The present invention relates to a dispensing system (10) comprising an assembly having a dispenser (11) of at least one cosmetic product, in particular makeup, and having at least two outlet interfaces (110), each of which can be mounted removably on the dispenser, the dispenser having at least two different base products and allowing these to be delivered in variable proportions, the outlet interfaces being able to receive the one or more products delivered by the dispenser.

{Problem}

To provide a dissolved hydrogen liquid-discharging pot that makes it easier for a user to use hydrogen water by making the pot capable of discharging or spraying a liquid in which hydrogen is dissolved continuously for a constant period at a prescribed pressure.

{Solution}

The internal pressure of a pressure chamber, the volume of which has been subdivided by an indicator line on a pot body, is maintained with hydrogen, which is generated by a hydrogen-generating agent disposed in a hydrogen-generating section, at a discharge pressure that is sufficient to discharge all of the liquid inside a bottle section while an on-off valve that opens and closes a discharge tube is closed, and when the on-off valve is opened intermittently or continuously, at a pressure sufficient for continuing discharge of the liquid inside the bottle section and performing continuous discharge of dissolved hydrogen liquid until the bottom of the bottle section is reached.

A dispensing system includes a container containing a flowable base formulation to be dispensed, an additive mixing device, and an actuable pump engine which draws the flowable base formulation from the container and pumps it through the mixing device. The additive mixing device includes a body with an internal cavity, an additive ingredient within the cavity, and a flow path/mixing chamber between an input and an output. With each pump of the device the additive ingredient is introduced into, and mixed with, a flow of the base formulation traveling through the mixing device. Multiple additive mixing devices may be interchangeable for different formulations, and the mixing devices may be refillable.

A portable custom cosmetic pigment dispenser creates a cosmetic pigment mixture that closely matches a person's skin color. The device is constructed with a color sensor at one end that scans the skin and records color values in a color space. A processor converts the color values into a colorspace. In one example, a user is presented with a sample of the color as determined by the processor and has an opportunity to accept or modify the color. Specific quantities of colored pigment are selected based on the corresponding weightings in the color space.

Customized cosmetics corresponding to user-unique factors are provided. An information processing apparatus can communicate with a cosmetic dispenser configured to dispense at least one of a plurality of cosmetics based on recipe information indicating a usage amount of each of the plurality of cosmetics. The apparatus includes a retrieve module configured to retrieve user-unique information unique to the user, the user-unique information including at least one of user attribute information related to the user's attributes, environmental information related to the user's environment, action information related to the user's action, and psychosomatic information related to the user's psychosomatic, skin information related to the user's skin, and information related to cosmetics which the user has used, a selection module configured to select the recipe information based on the user unique information among a plurality of recipe information, and a transmission module configured to transmit the selected recipe information to the cosmetic dispenser.

A storage and mixing device includes a mixing compartment, two pistons that each extend from the mixing compartment and end in a displacement section, each piston defining a passageway having a first opening communicating with the mixing compartment and a second opening communicating with an inlet at the displacement section, and a housing having two piston guides and a cartridge compartment connected to the piston guide, each piston guide slidably receiving one of the pistons, and each cartridge compartment receiving a removable cartridge that includes a cavity for containing separate substances and an opening sealed by a cartridge seal. The displacement section of each piston includes a piercing member for piercing the cartridge seal of the cartridge arranged in the corresponding cartridge compartment, such that the displacement section enters the cartridge cavity and displaces the contained substance into the mixing compartment via the inlet and the passageway.

Ingredient dispensing systems and methods in a fluid mixture system using a monitored chamber pressure are disclosed. One system includes a chamber, an inlet to the chamber, a set of ingredient reservoirs, in the chamber, storing a respective set of ingredients and sealed by a respective set of valve, a pressure source, and a controller. The system is programmed to set a pressure of the chamber using the pressure source and the inlet to the chamber. The system is also programmed to dispense, using the pressure, at least two ingredients from the respective set of ingredients by actuating at least two valves from the respective set of valves.

A multi-phase cosmetic composition mixing pack for mixing immiscible components of a multi-phase cosmetic composition such that they are temporarily miscible includes a container for holding the multi-phase cosmetic composition that has a first open end. The mixing pack further includes a mixing assembly disposed within the container for mixing immiscible components of the multi-phase cosmetic composition such that they are temporarily miscible, and an actuator assembly for actuating the mixing assembly. The actuator assembly comprises a stem receivable within the first open end of the container. The stem includes a cam surface extending along at least a portion of a length of the stem, and a cam follower surface defined on the mixing assembly, wherein linear reciprocating motion of the stem causes rotation of the mixing assembly.
