PRIORITY AND RELATED APPLICATIONS

This patent application claims benefit of priority to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/477,965 filed on Apr. 3, 2017, now U.S. Pat. No. 10,776,800, entitled “SKIN CARE COMPOSITION AND METHOD OF MAKING A SKIN CARE COMPOSITION,” the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference as if fully rewritten herein.

FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY

The present disclosure is directed to systems, devices, and methods including a skin care composition and a treatment skin conditions. More specifically, the present disclosure is directed to systems, devices, and methods including a skin care composition that has targeted active ingredients for treating target skin conditions and methods for creating customized skin care compositions.

BACKGROUND

Personalized skin care systems are desirable for consumers to provide a skin care composition that meets the skin care needs of the individual consumer.

Examples of personalized product lines include MaCrèmeSurMesure by Dr. Pierre Ricaud, Codage Paris, Customized TCM by Yue Sai, and prescription personalized serums (Re-Plasty) by Helena Rubinstein.

Helena Rubinstein uses a skinprofiler, a cutaneous analysis device that generates quantitative data to analyze a variety of skin attributes to diagnose consumers in-store and provide them with a personalized prescription product consisting of one universal serum base and single dose of concentrate. Helena Rubenstein products only consist of one single dose of concentrate containing actives that seek to address all skincare needs. In addition, the Helena Rubenstein product is a serum (aqueous based) product with water-soluble actives. The Helena Rubinstein skinprofiler measures elasticity, pigmentation, and texture of the skin and prescribes concentrate based on these results only.

Codage Paris has a custom-made skincare product line. Consumers use a website diagnostic tool in which they answer 23 questions that were developed by different specialists (including dermatologists, pharmacists, and nutritionists). Based on the results, Codage selects and formulates a composition in their existing line and sends consumers a final product within a week. The Codage Paris system does not include a base composition with personalized boosters. Codage Paris is a serum (aqueous based) product with water soluble actives. A diagnostic tool utilized for Codage is an online survey which automatically ‘prescribes’ a final product based on provided answers. The Codage Product provides a final pre-prepared formula for the consumer, which is sent directly from store to consumer, wherein no mixing is required.

MaCrèmeSurMesure by Dr. Pierre Ricaud similarly uses an online diagnostic tool in which consumers are given a questionnaire on their current skin and lifestyle. Based on the answers they provide, the website provides them with a cream base and combination of three active concentrates. Each “concentrate” for the MaCrèmeSurMesure only contains a single active ingredient. Typical “concentrates” for the MaCrèmeSurMesure products consist solely of pure extracts (100% active extract of chufa tubers, for example) and do not provide formulations. The MaCrèmeSurMesure product is aqueous based (water based moisturizing gel texture) and booster “concentrates” are water soluble extracts in aqueous form. The consumer is sent a kit with their products and mixes at home with a small mixing tool provided, which is not easily co-soluble. MaCrèmeSurMesure uses an online questionnaire to diagnose consumer.

Yue Sai is a Customized TCM Beauty Solution Ultimate Refining Serum that includes in-store formulations in China. The tailoring of the formulations were limited and included only aqueous based compositions.

There remains a need to provide an effective, skin care composition and method for treating skin that is customized to specific, individual customer target skin compositions and that is stable and efficacious.

BRIEF SUMMARY

In an exemplary embodiment, a method for managing a skin care system including generating, a user interface including one or more visual representations of a categorical skin condition, each of the visual representations corresponding to a severity score for the categorical skin condition. The method additionally includes generating, one or more severity scores responsive to one or more inputs indicative of a user-selected categorical skin condition. The method additionally includes generating a skin care regimen information including a cosmetic formulation based on one or more inputs associated with a severity score and one or more inputs indicative of a compatibility information associated with one or more cosmetic formulations.

In an embodiment, a skin care management system, including circuitry configured to extract one or more significant features corresponding to one or more skin conditions captured in a plurality of digital images. In an embodiment, the skin care system includes circuitry configured to generate severity information and cosmetic formulation compatibility information based on one or more inputs associated with extracting the one more significant features. In an embodiment, the skin care system includes circuitry configured to virtually display user-specific compatible cosmetic formulation information based on at least one parameter associated with severity information and the cosmetic formulation compatibility information.

Other features and advantages of the present disclosure will be apparent from the following more detailed description of the preferred embodiment which illustrates, by way of example, the principles of the disclosure.
