Abstract
A cosmetic treatment method. The method includes applying an adhesive composition to human keratin materials, especially the skin. The method includes bringing fibres borne by an applicator into contact with the adhesive composition present on the keratin materials. The method includes moving the applicator away from the skin, so as to release fibres which adhere to the keratin materials, the holding force for holding the fibres on the applicator being lower than the adhesive force for adhesion of the fibres to the adhesive composition present on the keratin materials.
Claims30
A cosmetic treatment method comprising:
- applying an adhesive composition to human keratin materials,
- providing fibers that are parallel from each other in a predefined direction that is the same direction for all the fibers, the fibers being bonded on an applicator each by a bonded end and having each an end opposed from the bonded end that is free from the applicator,
- after the fibers being provided, bringing at least some of the free ends of said fibers into contact with said adhesive composition present on said keratin materials,
- moving the applicator away from the keratin materials, so as to release from the applicator the bonded ends of said fibers thanks to their adhesion to said keratin materials by their free ends, a holding force for holding the bonded end of said fibers on the applicator being lower than an adhesive force for adhesion of the free ends of said fibers to the adhesive composition present on said keratin materials.
A cosmetic treatment method comprising:
- applying an adhesive composition to human keratin materials,
- bringing fibers borne by an applicator into contact with said adhesive composition present on said keratin materials,
- moving the applicator away from the keratin materials, so as to release fibers which adhere to said keratin materials, a holding force for holding the fibers on the applicator being lower than an adhesive force for adhesion of the fibers to the adhesive composition present on said keratin materials, the fibers being retained by a mechanical system on the applicator, this mechanical system being able to pass from a fiber-retaining configuration to a fiber-releasing configuration, a force to be exerted on these fibers in order to release them from the applicator being greater in the retaining configuration than in the releasing configuration, the mechanical system comprising a spring that grips the fibers between its coils in the retaining configuration, the spring being able to be stretched in order to open the coils and release the fibers.
A cosmetic treatment method comprising:
- placing fibers on an applicator by an electrostatic flocking method,
- each of said fibers having a bonded end bonded on the applicator and a free end opposed from the bonded end,
- applying an adhesive composition to human keratin materials,
- bringing at least some of the free ends of said fibers into contact with said adhesive composition present on said keratin materials,
- moving the applicator away from the keratin materials, so as to release from the applicator the bonded ends of said fibers which adhere to said keratin materials by their free ends, a holding force for holding the bonded end of said fibers on the applicator being lower than an adhesive force for adhesion of the free ends of said fibers to the adhesive composition present on said keratin materials.
