The device comprises a first interior portion for storing a first liquid, a second interior portion for storing a second liquid, and a valve intermediate to the first and second interior portions. The valve moves between at least two positions, a first position preventing the first and second liquids from mixing, and a second position allowing the first and second liquids to mix. The valve includes a first member protruding from a first side and a second member protruding from a second side.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for manufacturing cosmetic using instantaneous emulsification. Provided according to an aspect of the invention may be an apparatus for manufacturing cosmetic using instantaneous emulsification, which includes a housing which forms an outer appearance; an internal phase container which is replaceably coupled to the housing, and which stores internal phase fluid; an external phase container which is replaceably coupled to the housing, and which stores external phase fluid; a channel unit which generates emulsion by mixing the internal phase fluid provided from the internal phase container and the external phase fluid provided from the external phase container; and an operative unit which provides external force required to form and discharge emulsion at the channel unit by manipulation of a user.

Machine for dispensing a controlled quantity of a cosmetic composition The present application relates to a machine for dispensing a determined quantity of a cosmetic product into a receptacle from a reservoir, the machine comprising, on the one hand, a body configured such as to receive at least one cartridge forming a reservoir of the cosmetic product to be dispensed and, on the other hand, a dispensing zone configured such as to receive a receptacle capable of containing said quantity of cosmetic product to be dispensed, the machine being characterized in that the reception zone comprises an attachment member capable of interacting with a complementary part of the receptacle in such a manner as to effect the suspension thereof in the reception zone, the attachment member being mounted on a load cell.

An apparatus for creating custom perfumes is disclosed. The apparatus may comprise a body that may hold perfume refills and a mixing chamber connected to the perfume refills via a plurality of valves. The apparatus may be controlled by a microcontroller. The apparatus may receive custom formulas for creating custom perfumes from users. Upon receiving the formula, the apparatus may determine the quantities of perfumes that are to be added from each perfume refill to create the custom perfume. Further, a vacuum pump connected to the mixing chamber is activated. The amount of time required to extract the determined quantity of perfume from the refills to the vacuumized mixing chamber is calculated. Finally, the valves are opened for the calculated amount of time to allow the vacuum generated in the mixing chamber to extract the determined quantities of perfumes from each perfume refill to create the custom perfume.

Disclosed is a mixing container for using two types of contents by mixing. A mixing container according to an aspect of the present invention has: a first body having a first inner space; and an insertion head inserted below the first body. The insertion head comprises: a second body which has a center protrusion having a through hole and protruding downward by a fixed length; a piston which forms a second inner space by being movably inserted into the insertion head and closes the through hole by coming into contact with the center protrusion; and a bottom cap which covers the bottom of the second body. The center protrusion is released from the contact with the piston by means of the descent of the piston due to an external force, and thus the first inner space and second inner space communicate.

The instant disclosure relates to hair coloring base compositions and developer compositions that can be incorporated into a hair color cartridge, which combines the compositions and dispenses them onto hair. The hair color cartridge includes: (a) one or more hair coloring base compositions and; (b) one or more developer compositions, which can be combined to form an active hair coloring composition and dispensed onto hair. The hair coloring base compositions typically include one or more oxidative dye precursors; one or more alkalizing agents; one or more reducing agents; optionally, one or more cationic conditioning polymers; one or more surfactants; one or more water-soluble solvents; and water. The developer compositions typically include one or more oxidizing agents; one or more surfactants; and water. The unique components and fluid characteristics of the various compositions are such that devices or appliances comprising them accurately combine and dispense the hair coloring base composition(s) with the developer composition(s) in a predetermined ratio with excellent consistency for application to hair.

A device for dispensing a formulation of at least two compounds selected from a set of selectable compounds includes a plurality of containers storing the different selectable compounds, a pump associated with each container, a dispensing surface that includes at least two through openings configured to convey at least two selected compounds, a selector configured to connect the at least two through openings to the pumps for the selected compounds and to close the other pumps, and an actuator configured to activate all of the pumps and to only deliver the at least two selected compounds onto the dispensing surface.

A system for recalculating a formula previously used in preparing a mixture made from adding at least two components. The system includes a control system and salon management software. The control system has a processor, a computer-readable memory, and a display. The memory contains software configured to receive a formula defining instructions for blending a hair dye mixture using one or more blending materials and amounts recommended for the hair dye mixture. The salon management software is stored in the computer-readable memory and executed by the control system. The salon management software is in communication with the control system to exchange information on customers and formulas of hair dye mixtures associated with the customers.

A device for packaging and dispensing a cosmetic product prepared by mixing a first and a second bulk comprises: a bottle defining a bottle reservoir containing the first bulk; a cartridge defining a cartridge reservoir containing the second bulk and comprising a seal, the cartridge being arranged between a disassembled configuration and a mounted configuration; a seal opening mechanism adapted to open the seal in the mounted configuration, the bottle reservoir and the cartridge reservoir being in fluid communication in the mounted configuration; and a dispensing apparatus. The cartridge comprises a removable cartridge-sealing plug designed to cover the seal in the disassembled configuration and being replaced with the bottle in the mounted configuration.

A nail polish application apparatus, comprising a mounting element comprising a capsule compartment adapted to receive one or more capsules containing a nail polish fluid wherein the mounting element is moveable by actuator(s) in longitudinal axis crossing a nail polish applying space and in lateral axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and is rotatable by the actuator(s) around the longitudinal axis, a pressure applying element adapted to apply pressure on a body portion of the capsule(s) installed in the capsule compartment wherein the body portion defines a reservoir containing a nail polish fluid, the pressure builds an internal pressure in the reservoir forcing extrusion of the nail polish fluid to a nail polish applying element integrated with the capsule(s), sensor(s) adapted to generate sensory data depicting the nail polish applying space and a control unit adapted to operate the actuator(s) and the pressure according to analysis of the sensory data.
