Abstract

A system for forming a cosmetic composition. The system includes a dispensing arrangement in selective fluid communication with a plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles mounted on a movable carousel. The dispensing arrangement is configured to selectively dispense a plurality of the booster compositions together with a base composition corresponding to a formulation corresponding to a compatibility profile and consumer skin conditions to form a stable composition having efficacious concentrations of active ingredients into a receiving receptacle.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system for forming a cosmetic composition comprising:
a dispensing arrangement in selective fluid communication with a plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles mounted on a movable carousel, the dispensing dosing receptacles containing a plurality of booster compositions and a plurality of base compositions, the dispensing arrangement being configured to selectively dispense a at least two of the plurality of the booster compositions together with one of the plurality of base compositions corresponding to a formulation to form a stable composition having efficacious concentrations of active ingredients into a receiving receptacle as the cosmetic composition, wherein the system selects the at least two of the plurality of booster compositions and the base composition of the formulation for a consumer based on a compatibility profile and a skin condition of the consumer; and
circuitry configured to provide the cosmetic composition from the booster compositions and the base compositions not resulting in incompatibility between the booster compositions and the base compositions;
wherein the compatibility profile identifies at least two of the plurality of booster compositions being incompatible with each other and at least one of the plurality of booster compositions being incompatible with at least one of the plurality of base compositions.

2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a mixing arrangement.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the mixing arrangement includes a centrifugal mixing carriage arranged and disposed to move the receiving receptacle along a path that results in mixing of the formulation.

4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the mixing arrangement is within a common housing with the dispensing arrangement.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least two of the plurality of booster compositions are selected from the group consisting of a first grade exfoliating agent, a second grade exfoliating agent, a first grade whitening agent, a second grade whitening agent, a first grade anti-aging agent and a second grade anti-aging agent.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the base composition is an aqueous alcohol composition or an aqueous emulsion composition.

7. A system for forming a cosmetic composition comprising:
a plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles;
a plurality of booster compositions and a plurality of base compositions, each of the plurality of booster compositions and the plurality of base compositions being in one of the plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles, wherein a compatibility profile identifies at least two of the plurality of booster compositions being incompatible with each other and at least one of the plurality of booster compositions being incompatible with at least one of the plurality of base compositions;
a dispensing arrangement in selective fluid communication with the plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles, the dispensing arrangement being configured to selectively dispense the plurality of booster compositions with one of the plurality of base compositions in a controlled manner responsive to one or more inputs associated with the compatibility profile, the compatibility profile identifying incompatibilities;
a skin profile comprising skin information regarding a target skin area of the user;
a skin condition module including circuitry configured to determine a skin condition of the user responsive to one or more inputs indicative of consumer-specific skin condition;
a target formulation including circuitry configured to determine and generate a formulation including a base composition and at least two booster compositions corresponding to the target skin condition determined by the skin condition software module and compatibility profile between the booster composition and the base composition and not resulting in incompatibility; and
a device driver module including circuitry configured to direct the dispensing arrangement to dispense the formulation to form a stable composition having efficacious concentrations of active ingredients as the cosmetic composition;
wherein the system selects the booster compositions and the base composition of the formulation for the user based on the compatibility profile, the skin condition of the user, and the skin profile of the user.

8. The system of claim 7 , further comprising a mixing arrangement.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the mixing arrangement includes a centrifugal mixing carriage arranged and disposed to move the receiving receptacle along a path that results in mixing of the formulation.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the device driver module is further configured to, when carried out by a computing device, direct the mixing arrangement to move and mix the formulation.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the mixing arrangement is within a common housing with the dispensing arrangement.

12. The system of claim 7 , wherein the skin profile is generated with a skin analyzing device arranged and disposed to obtain skin information regarding a target skin area of a user.

13. The system of claim 7 , wherein the skin profile is generated from a consumer questionnaire.

14. A system for selecting and dispensing a cosmetic material, comprising:
a dispensing arrangement configured to hold a plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles, the plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles include at least two booster compositions from a plurality of booster composition and at least one base composition from a plurality of base compositions, the dispersing arrangement being arranged and disposed to dispense at least two booster compositions and the at least one base composition into a receiving receptacle;
a user interface configured to receive a skin profile from a user; and
circuitry configured to:
receive the skin profile received at the user interface;
determine a skin condition for the skin information from the skin profile;
generate a compatibility profile;
determine a formulation of at least two booster compositions and a base composition that satisfies both the skin condition and the compatibility profile that does not result in incompatibility between the at least two booster compositions and the at least one base composition;
transmit the formulation to the dispensing apparatus; and
control the dispensing apparatus to dispense the formulation from the plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles as the cosmetic composition based on the compatibility profile, the skin profile, and the skin condition;
wherein the compatibility profile identifies at least two of the plurality of booster compositions being incompatible with each other and at least one of the plurality of booster compositions being incompatible with at least one of the plurality of base compositions.

15. The system of claim 14 , further comprising a mixing arrangement.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the mixing arrangement includes a centrifugal mixing carriage arranged and disposed to move the receiving receptacle along a path that results in mixing of the formulation.

17. The system of claim 15 , the circuitry further configured to control the mixing arrangement to mix the formulation.

18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the mixing arrangement is within a common housing with the dispensing arrangement.

19. The system of claim 14 , wherein the skin profile is generated with a skin analyzing device arranged and disposed to obtain skin information regarding a target skin area of a user.
