Abstract
In a system for coating human skin, a chemical composition, such as a cosmetic or medical formulation, is uniformly coated over the entire body or selected parts of the body of the person being coated. The system includes atomization of the coating composition, containment of the atomized spray, and residual recovery which together yield a novel method for applying chemical compositions. An improved self-tanning composition is useful in conjunction with system is also disclosed. Also disclosed is a plural component self-tanning system.
Claims6
A plural component process for coating the human body comprising the steps of:
- providing a first component of a human body coating composition;
- providing a second component of the human body coating composition including an agent which would adversely effect the first component if mixed herewith;
- maintaining the first and second components of the human body coating composition separate from one another prior to application of the composition;
- mixing the first and second components of the human body coating composition;
- and
- spray-applying the human body coating composition onto a human body simultaneously with the mixing step.
A plural component self-tanning process comprising the steps of:
- providing a first component of a self-tanning composition which includes dihydroxyacetone;
- providing a second component of the self-tanning composition including a tan enhancing agent which would destabilize the dihydroxyacetone of the first component if mixed herewith;
- maintaining the first and second components of the self-tanning composition separate from one another prior to application of the self-tanning composition to effect self-tanning;
- and
- mixing the first and second components of the self-tanning composition;
- and
- spray-applying the self-tanning composition onto a human body simultaneously with the mixing step.
