A system and method for customizing the solution used in the sunless spray tanning process are provided. In at least one form, the solution is volumetrically mixed at the point of use, allowing for greater customization and a more consistent tanning result. Providing improved customization at the point of use is accomplished, in at least one form, by using a two-part tanning solution: one part being a high concentration DHA solution and another part being an activator solution. The two parts are mixed with one another at the point of use based on user preferences at the time of the tanning session to provide a specific final DHA concentration for a customized tanning result.

A lotion application machine for allowing automatic application of a lotion to the body of a user is provided. The lotion application machine has a rotatable platform, on which the user can stand and be rotated while the lotion is being applied. The lotion can be applied evenly to the entire body of the user.

The wound treatment apparatus combines an internal negative pressure (vacuum) pump and an internal positive pressure (compressor) pump connectable to an external oxygen supply for providing both negative pressure wound therapy and hyperbaric oxygen wound therapy to a wound site. The apparatus also includes a user interface operatively connected to an electronic controller that monitors and actuates the vacuum and compressor pumps. The user interface and controller enables the apparatus to provide multiple modes of operation and the ability to selectively change between negative pressure therapy operational modes and hyperbaric oxygen operational modes.

The present disclosure relates method of tanning a person including applying a moisturizer to an applicator and applying a tanning solution to the applicator. The moisturizer and the tanning solution are applied to the applicator in separate steps. The applicator is then contacted onto the skin of a person to apply the moisturizer and tanning solution.

A method and system are provided for managing a skin condition. The method includes determining, using at least one of an image capture device and a temperature sensor, a skin inflammation value. The method further includes determining, by a hardware processor, a risk value associated with an improper determination of the skin inflammation value. The method also includes triggering, by the hardware processor, an action relating to the skin condition based on the skin inflammation value and the risk value.

An apparatus (100) for applying product to the skin of a person in a booth (10), comprising: an applicator (57) configured to apply the product to the person; a first guide (40) configured to guide movement of an applicator in a first dimension, in order to enable the applicator to apply the product to the person at a plurality of different heights; and a second guide (20) configured to guide movement of the applicator in a second dimension, in order to enable the applicator to apply the product across the width of the person. The apparatus may comprise control circuitry for controlling the applicator in dependence upon the weight of the person.

A hand-held apparatus for the application of a sunless tanning composition to the skin of a user. The apparatus includes: a housing, the housing enclosing: an air mover, a nozzle, and a reservoir. The reservoir and nozzle are in operable gaseous connection with the air mover such that in use, a composition in the reservoir is expelled through the nozzle to form a spray. The apparatus is useful in methods for spraying a tanning composition onto the skin of an individual.

A portable applicator for uniformly applying insect repellent or sunscreen upon human skin. A jar-like container normally holds the liquid contents. The container is sealed by a circular lid. The lid supports a downwardly-projecting sponge wiper that is saturated with liquid for subsequent topical application. The underside of the lid has a glue area surrounded by a peripheral ring for securing the wiper, and channels for directing fluid. A wringer-saturator, in the form of a foraminous partition, is disposed between the applicator contents and the wiper. When the applicator is closed, the wiper is compressed slightly by contact with the wringer-saturator. As the lid is removed from the container, the wiper will expand slightly, absorbing and holding liquid. When the lid is reattached, the wiper is compressed slightly against the wringer-saturator and liquid is partially expelled. The wiper has a fiberglass fabric covering for preventing dripping and easing topical application.

Provided is a coating having a uniform and strong UV protective effect over the entire skin. A method for producing a UV protective coating on skin comprising a step of applying a composition comprising a UV protective agent to the skin, and a step of electrostatically spraying a composition comprising component (a) and component (b) directly onto the skin to form a coating on the skin, in this order or vice versa: (a) one or more volatile substances selected from the group consisting of water, an alcohol and a ketone, (b) a polymer having a film-forming ability.

The present disclosure relates method of tanning a person including applying a moisturizer to an applicator and applying a tanning solution to the applicator. The moisturizer and the tanning solution are applied to the applicator in separate steps. The applicator is then contacted onto the skin of a person to apply the moisturizer and tanning solution.
