Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Process for making up an area of human keratin materials (P) using a makeup device having a transfer surface and a coat of at least one cosmetic colouring ink (4) 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 (P), the process comprising the following steps: —transferring at least part of the coat of cosmetic ink (4) onto the area (P) to be made up by placing the coat of ink (4) in contact with the area (P) to be made up, and then —forming a protective coating (8) by applying at least one composition comprising a film-forming polymer onto the area (P) of keratin materials to be made up.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for making up an area of human keratin materials using a makeup device having a transfer surface and a not entirely dry coat of at least one digitally printed cosmetic colouring ink borne by the transfer surface in which the at least one digitally printed cosmetic colouring ink is configured to be applied to the keratin materials, the method comprising: transferring at least part of the not entirely dry coat of cosmetic ink onto the area to be made up, which is dry, by placing the not entirely dry coat of ink in contact with the area to be made up, the ink comprising one or more water-soluble dyes, without addition of an intermediary fluid compound, and then forming a protective coating by applying at least one composition comprising a film-forming polymer, onto the area of keratin materials to be made up. 2. The method according to claim 1 , the protective coating being transparent. 3. The method according to claim 1 , comprising moving the transfer surface away from the area of the human keratin materials after the coat of ink has been transferred. 4. The method according to claim 1 , the composition comprising a solvent chosen from water and volatile organic solvents. 5. The method according to claim 1 , the composition being applied using a manual application system or by propulsion. 6. The method according to claim 1 , the ink(s) being deposited onto the transfer surface without being covered and without covering a layer of an adhesive. 7. An assembly for performing the makeup method according to claim 1 comprising: the makeup device comprising a substrate having the transfer surface and the coat of at least one digitally printed cosmetic colouring ink borne by the transfer surface the coat of cosmetic coloring ink being not entirely dry, the ink comprising the one or more water soluble dyes, without addition of an intermediary fluid component; and being transferable onto the area to be made up, which is dry, the at least one composition, comprising the film-forming polymer, which is capable of forming a protective coating on an area of the keratin materials to be made up, the composition being contained in a packaging assembly. 8. The assembly according to claim 7 , the substrate and the composition being contained in the same case. 9. The assembly according to claim 7 , comprising a manual application system for forming the protective coating. 10. The method according to claim 1 , the film-forming polymer being a vinyl film-forming polymer resulting from the polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing at least one acid group and/or esters of these acid monomers and/or amides of these acid monomers. 11. The method according to claim 1 , the film-forming polymer being a polyester obtained by polycondensation of dicarboxylic acids with polyols. 12. The method according to claim 1 , the film-forming polymer being an isophthalate/sulfoisophthalate copolymer. 13. The method according to claim 1 , the film-forming polymer is present in the composition in a solids content ranging from 0.01% to 20% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition. 14. A method for making up an area of human keratin materials using a makeup device comprising: providing a makeup device having a transfer surface and a coat of at least one digitally printed cosmetic colouring ink borne by the transfer surface in which the at least one digitally printed cosmetic colouring ink comprises one or more dyestuffs chosen from water-soluble dyes and is configured to be applied to the keratin materials, transferring at least part of the not entirely dry coat of cosmetic ink onto the area to be made up, which is dry, by placing the coat of ink in contact with the area to be made up, without addition of an intermediary fluid compound, and then forming a protective coating by applying at least one composition comprising a film-forming polymer, onto the area of keratin materials to be made up.
