Abstract
In one embodiment, a method for manufacturing an artificial eyelash includes configuring a placement mark on a surface, positioning a plurality of fibers on the surface based on the placement mark, placing a first adhesive near a base of the plurality of fibers to secure the plurality of fibers together, placing a second adhesive near the base of the plurality of fibers, and cutting the plurality of fibers in accordance to a predetermined shape. In particular, the second adhesive is a pressure-sensitive adhesive.
Claims27
A method for manufacturing an artificial eyelash kit, the method comprising:
- configuring a placement mark on a surface;
- positioning a plurality of fibers on the surface based on the placement mark;
- placing a first adhesive near a base of the plurality of fibers to secure the plurality of fibers together;
- placing a second adhesive near the base of the plurality of fibers, the second adhesive being a pressure-sensitive adhesive;
- cutting the plurality of fibers in accordance to a predetermined shape to form one or more artificial eyelash segments;
- and
- providing a third adhesive configured to be applied to a user's natural eyelashes;
- wherein, for each of the artificial eyelash segments, the artificial eyelash segment is configured to be secured to at least a portion of the user's natural eyelashes at a location corresponding to the second adhesive and where the third adhesive is applied to the user's natural eyelashes, and
- wherein an application of the second adhesive with the third adhesive creates a bond that attaches the artificial eyelash segment to the user's natural eyelashes and allows relative movement between the user's natural eyelashes and the artificial eyelash segment at the location.
A system for manufacturing an artificial eyelash kit, the system comprising:
- means for configuring a placement mark on a surface, wherein the placement mark indicates locations to place a plurality of fibers on the surface;
- a first adhesive configured to be applied near a base of the plurality of fibers to secure the plurality of fibers together;
- a second adhesive configured to be applied near the base of the plurality of fibers, the second adhesive being a pressure-sensitive adhesive;
- means for cutting the plurality of fibers in accordance to a predetermined shape to form one or more artificial eyelash segments;
- and
- a third adhesive configured to be applied to a user's natural eyelashes;
- wherein, for each of the artificial eyelash segments, the artificial eyelash segment is configured to be secured to at least a portion of the user's natural eyelashes at a location corresponding to the second adhesive and where the third adhesive is applied to the user's natural eyelashes, and
- wherein an application of the second adhesive with the third adhesive creates a bond that attaches the artificial eyelash segment to the user's natural eyelashes and allows relative movement between the user's natural eyelashes and the artificial eyelash segment at the location.
