Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Process for making up an area of human keratin materials using a makeup device having a transfer surface and a coat of at least one cosmetic colouring ink borne by the transfer surface and obtained by printing using at least one digital printer, the colouring ink being intended to be applied to the keratin materials. The process includes the following steps: forming a base coating by applying at least one cosmetic composition comprising an oil onto the area of the keratin materials to be made up, and producing a pattern on the area of the keratin materials by placing the coat of cosmetic ink in contact with the base coating present on the area to be made up so as to transfer the coat of cosmetic ink onto the keratin materials.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A process for making up an area of human keratin materials using a makeup device having a transfer surface, the process comprising: printing by a digital printer a coat of at least one cosmetic colouring ink having a pattern on the transfer surface thereby forming a pattern borne by the transfer surface, the colouring ink is configured for application to the area of human keratin materials; providing the makeup device having the transfer surface and the coat of at least one cosmetic colouring ink having the pattern borne by the transfer surface, forming a coloured base coating by applying at least one cosmetic composition comprising an oil onto the area of the human keratin materials to be made up, the cosmetic composition being a foundation or a lip gloss, producing the pattern on the area of the human keratin materials by placing the coat of cosmetic ink in contact with the base coating present on the area to be made up so as to transfer the coat of cosmetic ink onto the human keratin materials, the pattern only partially covering the base coating, moving the transfer surface away from the area of the human keratin materials after the coat of ink has been transferred, the transfer surface comprising a non-absorbent material so that the coloured base coating is not removed from the human keratin materials while transferring the coat of cosmetic ink having the pattern onto the human keratin materials and/or while moving the transfer surface away from the area of the human keratin materials, the ink being a pulverulent at the time of printing. 2. The process according to claim 1 , the cosmetic composition being anhydrous or comprising an emulsion. 3. The process according to claim 1 , the cosmetic composition comprising the oil in an amount by mass ranging from 5% to 95% relative to the total mass of the composition. 4. The process according to claim 1 , the cosmetic composition also comprising at least one cosmetic additive chosen from film-forming polymers, waxes, pasty compounds, thickeners, surfactants, fragrances, preserving agents, sunscreens, fillers, dyestuffs, proteins, vitamins, provitamins, moisturizers, ceramides and pH regulators. 5. The process according to claim 1 , the ink(s) being deposited onto the transfer surface without being covered and without covering a coat of an adhesive. 6. The process according to claim 1 , the oil being a non-volatile oil. 7. The process according to claim 1 , the ink comprising at least one water-soluble dye. 8. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the ink is a solid pulverulent at the time of digital printing.
