Treatment Application Garment
A treatment application garment, such as a glove or a sock, is disclosed. The garment allows for various treatments directed toward the fingers and toes, such as the fingernails and toenails. For example, each digit of the garment may contain an absorbent pad containing acetone. The hand or foot is inserted into the garment such that the nail is positioned below the absorbent pad containing the acetone, allowing the acetone to be constantly applied to the nail to remove polish therefrom. After the treatment is complete, the glove may be removed and the open end thereof tied off, thereby containing the acetone and the smell thereof within the glove. Other features and treatments are also disclosed.
Device for applying and removing nail polish
A device for applying or removing nail polish or nail art has a replaceable cartridge with a distal end removably coupleable to a proximal end of a handle. The cartridge has a reservoir that contains a liquid, such as nail polish or nail polish remover and a flow control member (e.g., valve) actuatable to allow flow of the liquid out of the distal end of the cartridge. The handle has a flow path therethrough that extends between its proximal end to an applicator implement (e.g., brush, sponge) attached to its distal end, the flow path in fluid communication with the flow control member when the cartridge is coupled to the handle. Selective actuation of the flow control member by the user (e.g., by squeezing the cartridge) allows fluid to flow out the reservoir and through the flow path in the handle to the applicator implement for application of the fluid by the user to a finger or toe nail.
Tool for removing nail polish and buffing nails
A nail care tool having an ergonomic elongated handle and a removable operational head attached to the handle is presented. The tool also has a removable scraper or end tip inserted in one of the ends of the handle, useful in cleaning critical cuticle areas. The operational head has adhered to it a lining of material commonly used in the nail care and maintenance processes; for instance, it may be a nail polish removal material or a nail buffing material. In some embodiments of the invention, the ergonomic handle and the head are interconnected in a nonpermanent manner by a male/female system; in such embodiments, the head may be engage or connected to the handle by screwing the head to the handle and, it may be disengaged or disconnected, by simply unscrewing it from the handle. In other embodiments of the invention, the handle is connected to the head by a hold/release system, allowing the User to connect the head and the handle by inserting an already assembled cartridge inside the handle into a rectangular internal cavity on the head. In order to disconnect the head from the handle, the User slides backwardly a button on the ergonomic handle without even having to touch the head. The hold/release system allows the User to easily attach or detach heads to the handle. The operational removable head required for any of the embodiments may have different shapes and operational lining materials, in order for the User to use the tool as an applicator—meaning being able to remove most of the nail polishes—or as a nail buffer.
SANITIZING AND CLEANING SYSTEM FOR FINGERS
Systems and methods for cleaning or sanitizing a finger. A container has an interior sized to receive a finger, the container having a bottom portion and a wall portion extending from the bottom portion to an opening along an edge of the wall portion through which the finger may be received. The wall portion and bottom portion each have an interior surface within the container. A plurality of bristles extend from an interior surface of the container for contact with a portion of the finger when liquid is in the container.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DISPENSING FLUID FROM A RUPTURABLE CELL
The present disclosure relates to a fluid delivery system that includes a surface contact a layer and a matrix of rupturable cells. The rupturable cells contain fluid confined with the cell. The fluid is absorbed by the surface contact layer when at least one of the cells is ruptured.
NAIL POLISH KIT FOR USE BY AN AUTOMATED NAIL POLISH APPLICATION APPARATUS
A kit for usage by a nail polish application apparatus, the kit comprising one or more nail polish capsules. Each of the nail polish capsule(s) comprises a body portion defining a reservoir containing a nail polish fluid and a non-screw detachable cover having an integrated nail polish applying element. The non-screw detachable cover is mechanically coupled to an upper face of the body portion to seal an opening in the upper face.
CRAFTING SCRAP COLLECTION AND NAIL POLISH HOLDER DEVICES AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
Provided for are devices having a crown with an opening defining an access to a cavity of the crown for the insertion of nail polish containers or crafting scrap materials, such as waste produced in vinyl weeding. Advantageously, the devices are anchorable for directional release and attachment to a surface. The crown may be hingedly positionable with respect to a vented suction base anchorable to a surface. Further provided for are methods of use of devices in the application of nail polish or in crafting, such as in vinyl weeding.
IMPLEMENTS FOR REMOVING NAIL POLISH
An implement for removing nail polish includes a container having a closed end, and an open end to a chamber for holding an amount of a liquid nail polish remover. A first pad is secured to the open end, is coupled fluidly to the chamber, and extends outwardly from the open end of the container to a first outer extremity. A second pad is secured to the closed end that isolates the second pad from the chamber, and extends outwardly from the closed end of the container to a second outer extremity. The first outer extremity is broad and round relative to the second outer extremity, which is comparatively narrow and blunt-pointed. The first pad has a first density and a first softness, and the second pad has a second density greater than the first density and a second softness less than the first softness.
Insect repellent layered strip
Nail polish remover strips are pre-sized for toe or fingernails and applied to a painted or artificial nail and left thereon for a predetermined period of time to dissolve the nail polish and/or nail bonding agent. Preferably a color change occurs to depict the appropriate dwelling time to dissolve the nail polish. Certain embodiments include odor reducing components. Preferably the strips are layered composites having an exterior odor impervious material, a layer of encapsulated acetone or nail polish removing agent, an absorbent layer, and a peelable backing, with the strips being sized to accommodate contact with a person's nail.
SQUEEZABLE NAIL TREATMENT CONTAINER
An apparatus is provided for providing nail or skin treatment. The apparatus includes a container, formed of a compressible material; an insert, disposed within the container formed of a compressible material, and configured to receive and surround at least one body part of the user; and an opening at a first end of the container which provides access to an interior surface of the insert, wherein the insert is configured to hold at least one substance configured to treat at least one of a nail and skin of the user.
