Abstract

A system forms 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 plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles being configured to separately contain each of a plurality of base compositions and a plurality of booster compositions; and
a formulation corresponding to at least two of the plurality of booster compositions together with one of the plurality of base compositions, the formulation corresponding to a compatibility profile and a skin condition of a consumer;
the dispensing arrangement being configured to selectively dispense the at least two of the plurality of booster compositions and the one of the plurality of base compositions to form the cosmetic composition into a receiving receptacle, the cosmetic composition being stable and having efficacious concentrations of active ingredients.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of base compositions comprise an aqueous alcohol base composition and an aqueous emulsion base composition.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of booster compositions comprise 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.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the one of the plurality of base compositions is selected from the group consisting of an aqueous alcohol base composition and an aqueous emulsion base composition.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least two 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 compatibility profile identifies at least one pair of the plurality of booster compositions as being incompatible with each other and at least one of the plurality of booster compositions as being incompatible with at least one of the plurality of base compositions.

7. A system for forming a cosmetic composition comprising:
a dispensing arrangement in selective fluid communication with a plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles, the dispensing arrangement being configured to selectively dispense a plurality of booster compositions with a base composition in a controlled manner responsive to one or more inputs associated with a compatibility profile;
a skin profile comprising skin information regarding a target skin area of a user;
a skin condition module including circuitry configured to determine a skin condition responsive to one or more inputs indicative of a 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
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.

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 an outer 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 and a base composition, the dispersing arrangement being arranged and disposed to dispense at least two booster compositions and 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;
transmit the formulation to the dispensing apparatus; and
control the dispensing apparatus to dispense the formulation from the plurality of dispensing dosing receptacles.

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 apparatus to mix the formulation.

18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the mixing arrangement is within an outer 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.

20. The system of claim 14 , wherein the skin profile is generated from a consumer questionnaire.
