System and method for selective application of cosmetic composition to impart undereye brightening

A handheld device for selectively applying a composition to skin within an undereye region of a user, comprising:

• an applicator arrangement applying the composition to the skin within the undereye region;
• a detector arrangement obtaining image data corresponding to an image of an area of skin in the undereye region;
• a memory storage device storing past image data corresponding to images of a plurality of areas of skin previously imaged by the detector arrangement;
• and
• a processor and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium including a set of instructions executable by the processor, the set of instructions operable to analyze the image data and past image data to generate a target reflectance value based on the image data and past image data, wherein the past image data correspond to images of a plurality of areas of skin previously imaged by the detector arrangement, wherein the target reflectance value is higher than reflectance of at least half of the group consisting of the area of skin imaged, and the plurality of areas of skin previously imaged by the detector arrangement, determine a desired level of reflectance modification for a location within the area of skin imaged by comparing image data corresponding to reflectance of the location to the target reflectance value, and direct the applicator arrangement to selectively apply the composition to the location based on the desired level of reflectance modification.

A method for selectively applying a composition to skin within an undereye region of a user, comprising:

• obtaining, by a detector arrangement, image data corresponding to an image of an area of skin in the undereye region, the area of skin consisting of a plurality of skin frames imaged by the detector arrangement;
• analyzing, by a processing arrangement, the image data to generate a target reflectance value higher than reflectance of at least half of the plurality of skin frames imaged by the detector arrangement;
• determining, by the processing arrangement, a desired level of reflectance modification for a location within each of the plurality of frames by comparing image data corresponding to reflectance of the location to the target reflectance value;
• and
• selectively applying, by an applicator arrangement, the composition to each location based on the corresponding desired level of reflectance modification determined for the location.

A handheld device for selectively applying a composition to skin within an undereye region of a user, comprising:

• a detector arrangement obtaining image data corresponding to an image of an area of skin in the undereye region, the area of skin consists of a plurality of skin frames imaged by the detector arrangement;
• an applicator arrangement comprising a plurality of nozzles applying the composition to the area of skin, wherein each of the plurality of nozzles is aligned to apply the composition to skin within a corresponding skin frame selected from the plurality of skin frames imaged by the detector arrangement;
• and
• a processor and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium including a set of instructions executable by the processor, the set of instructions operable to analyze the image data to select a target frame from the plurality of skin frames, and to generate a target reflectance value based on image data corresponding to reflectance across the target frame, analyze the image data to generate a target reflectance value higher than reflectance of at least half of the plurality of skin frames imaged by the detector arrangement, determine a desired level of reflectance modification for a location within each of the plurality of frames by comparing image data corresponding to reflectance of the location to the target reflectance value, and direct the applicator arrangement to selectively apply the composition to each location based on the corresponding desired level of reflectance modification determined for the location.
