A storage compartment for personal items consists of a first half shell, a second half shell, a separation panel, a hinging mechanism, a clamping mechanism, a mirror, and a lighting assembly. The first half shell and the second half shell are hingedly connected via the hinging mechanism. The clamping mechanism provides a locking mechanism to secure the personal items held within the first half shell and the second half shell. The separation panel can be used to organize personal items. In addition to mounting the mirror, the separation panel can also be used to mount a light source. Make-up items, tools, and other comparable items can be held within a structural body of both the first half shell and the second half shell.

The invention concerns the field of communicating objects intended to promote a smart environment. The invention more particularly concerns a communication system comprising: a recipient 1 for a cosmetic or pharmaceutical product or a wine or a spirit as the communicating object and at least two mobile telecommunication devices 110, 120. The invention also concerns an associated communication method. The recipient is incorporated into the communication system in such way as to adapt at least to the presence of the first mobile telecommunication device in the coverage area of the communication means of same. The recipient is therefore advantageously an actor of the communication system. The recipient promotes the smart environment defined by the communication system.

An energy-saving illuminated cosmetic container includes a container including a cover, an externally threaded hollow projection on the cover; a cover; a carrier in the cover and including an axial passageway, threads on an inner surface of the passageway for threadedly securing to the external threads, and an internal conductor; an illumination assembly in the carrier and including a light sensor, a light, a positive electrode member at one end, and a negative electrode member at the other end; a cosmetic stick including an applicator at one end and an attaching member at the other end; a sealing ring put on the cosmetic stick; and a biasing member having one end urging against the passageway to electrically connect to the negative electrode member, and the other end urging against a negative electrode of a cell assembly. A positive electrode of the cell assembly is spaced from the conductor.

Illuminated vanity mirror assemblies are disclosed. In one example implementation, an illuminated vanity mirror assembly includes a front panel having a front face and a rear face. The front face can include a reflective surface. The illuminated vanity mirror can include a mirror housing and at least one light source positioned within the mirror housing. The illuminated vanity mirror can include a first mount attached to the rear face of the front panel at or adjacent to the first edge of the rear face of the front panel. The first mount can have a downward facing lip. The mirror housing can define a cavity configured to receive at least a portion of the downward facing lip.

An illuminated vanity mirror includes a housing and a front mirror panel connected to the housing. A frame is connected to the housing and positioned behind the front mirror panel. A light emitter is connected to frame. The light emitter includes a plurality of LEDs facing away from the front mirror panel. The LEDs are positioned to direct emitted light toward the housing and the emitted light is redirected through the front mirror panel.

An applicator device includes a formulation assembly with a dispenser portion and one or more formulation reservoirs, the formulation assembly being operable to dispense a formulation from the one or more formulation reservoirs onto one or more regions of a biological surface. The applicator device also includes a photo-dose assembly operably coupled to the formulation assembly, the photo-dose assembly having at least one illuminator oriented to focus electromagnetic energy onto one or more focal regions of a biological surface.

An applicator device includes a photo-active formulation assembly and a photo-dose assembly operably coupled to the photo-active formulation assembly. The photo-active formulation assembly includes a dispenser portion and one or more photo-activatable formulation reservoirs. The photo-active formulation assembly is operable to dispense a photo-activatable formulation from the one or more photo-activatable formulation reservoirs onto one or more regions of a biological surface. The photo-dose assembly includes at least one illuminator oriented to focus electromagnetic energy onto one or more focal regions of a biological surface. The focused electromagnetic energy is of a character and for a duration sufficient to photo-activate the photo-activatable formulation dispensed from the one or more photo-activatable formulation reservoirs.
