A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions configured to cause a server computer system to perform steps comprising:
- presenting a digital personal care platform configured to provide a user interface for customizing formulations of personal care products and a user interface for customizing settings of a personal care device having a human-machine interface device, a treatment application device, and at least one computer-controlled component comprising a usage authorization engine and a treatment control engine;
- receiving, from a first remote computing device accessing the digital personal care platform, user-specified settings for a custom formulation of a personal care product, wherein the user-specified settings for the custom formulation are based on user input received by the first remote computing device via a user interface provided by the digital personal care platform at the first remote computing device for customizing formulations of personal care products;
- obtaining manufacturing parameters for the custom formulation based at least on part on the user-specified settings for the custom formulation;
- transmitting the manufacturing parameters to a manufacturing computer system, wherein the manufacturing parameters are configured to initiate or guide a manufacturing process to produce the custom formulation of the personal care product;
- receiving, from the first remote computing device accessing the digital personal care platform, user-specified settings for the personal care device having at least one computer-controlled component, wherein the user-specified settings for the personal care device are based on user input received via a user interface provided by the digital personal care platform at the first remote computing device for customizing settings of the treatment control engine of the personal care device, and wherein the first remote computing device is not in direct communication with the personal care device;
- obtaining operational parameters for the personal care device based at least in part on the user-specified settings for the personal care device;
- transmitting the operational parameters to a second remote computing device in communication with the personal care device, wherein the operational parameters are configured to modify at least one operational characteristic of the treatment control engine of the at least one computer-controlled component of the personal care device;
- and
- obtaining measurements of humidity, wherein the manufacturing parameters for the custom formulation and the operational parameters for the personal care device are based at least in part on the measurements of humidity,
- wherein the treatment control engine is configured to detect actuation of the human-machine interface device and activate the treatment application device in accordance with the at least one modified operational characteristic, and wherein the usage authorization engine is configured to determine whether the treatment control engine is authorized to activate the treatment application device before allowing activation of the treatment application device in accordance with the at least one modified operational characteristic.
