The stimulating plate preferably includes one or more selected from the group consisting of a light source that irradiates light toward the skin, a heat source that heats the skin, and a vibrating section that vibrates the skin. This makes it possible to apply one or more stimuli of light, heat, and vibration to the skin in addition to the pressure stimulus.
When one or more selected from the group consisting of the light source section, the heat source section, and the vibrating section are provided, the substrate on which the light source section is provided uses a material that can transmit the light from the light source section. For example, polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, acrylic, polystyrene, silicone rubber can be used. The transmittance of the substrate on which the light source section is provided is preferably 10 to 99%, more preferably 40 to 99%.
When one or more selected from the group consisting of a heat source section and a vibrating section is provided, the substrate on which the heat source section and the vibrating section are provided is made of the same material as the stimulation plate used when applying pressure stimulation. can.

As the light source, an organic light emitting diode (organic LED) or an inorganic light emitting diode (inorganic LED) is preferable because the size of the stimulation plate can be easily suppressed within a desired range.
Phototherapy, in which light is directed at the skin, is known to promote metabolism in mitochondria.

The wavelength of the light emitted from the light source toward the skin is not particularly limited, and may be appropriately selected according to the desired cosmetic effect or the like.
A preferable wavelength of light for improving nasolabial folds and fine wrinkles is 360 to 830 nm, more preferably 600 to 680 nm.

A preferred temperature for promoting blood circulation is 25-45°C, more preferably 30-41°C.

An eccentric motor or the like can be used as the vibrator.
Applying vibration stimulation to the skin stimulates many facial muscles and modiolas around the mouth, such as the zygomatic muscle, buccal muscle, masseter muscle, orbicularis oris muscle, so it is possible to effectively care for nasolabial folds and wrinkles around the mouth. Are known.
There is no particular limitation on the frequency of vibration, and it may be selected as appropriate according to the desired cosmetic effect or the like.
A preferred frequency for improving nasolabial folds and wrinkles around the mouth is 5,000 to 18,000 cpm, more preferably 7,000 to 15,000 cpm.

When the stimulating plate includes at least one selected from the group consisting of a light source that irradiates light toward the skin, a heat source, and a vibrating unit, the stimulating plate contains power for driving the light source and the like. Although the power may be supplied by a battery that has been installed, it is preferable to supply power from a separate main body.
The main body may further give a control signal or the like to the light source or the like as necessary.
The shape of the main body is not particularly limited, but if it is a headphone type, the user can wear it on his head or neck and move around freely. It is also preferable to have a shape and size that can be stored in a pocket of the user's clothes, such as a card type.

When the stimulation device has a stimulation portion main body in addition to the stimulation plate, the connection between them may be wired or wireless, but wired connection using lead wires is preferable.
If a lead wire is used, the lead wire near the stimulation plate can be used as a grip.
The grip part of the stimulator is not particularly limited as long as it is connected to one end of the stimulation plate and the stimulation plate can be operated and moved by moving the grip part. In addition to lead wires, for example, strings and rods can be used. Also, one end side of the stimulating plate may be extended and the extended plate may be used as the grasping portion.

(Stimulator 10)
An example of a stimulator will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG.
The stimulator 10 shown in FIG. 1 includes a stimulator main body 11 , a pair of lead wires 12 , and a pair of stimulation plates 13 connected to the stimulator main body 11 by the pair of lead wires 12 . In the stimulator 10 , the lead wire 12 functions not only as a lead wire for supplying electric power to the stimulation plate 13 but also as a grip for operating the stimulation plate 13 .

The cover sheet 16 can be made of resin such as polyethylene terephthalate. By providing the cover sheet 16, the stimulation plate can be protected from sweat and water.
A protective tape 17 is wrapped around the connecting portion between the light irradiation portion 15 and the lead wire 12 . Polyurethane can be used as the material of the protective tape 17 .
The stimulation plate 13 shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is used with the lower side of FIG. 3 facing inside (face side).

[mask body]
The mask main body has a function of fixing the stimulating plate to the nasolabial fold portion of the face by applying pressure to the nasolabial fold portion. The mask main body has a sheet-like base material having stretchability, and the sheet-like base material covers at least the nasolabial fold portion, the lower jaw, and the upper jaw and is fixed to the face.

The mask main body may be composed only of a stretchable sheet-like base material, or may have members other than the sheet-like base material in addition to the sheet-like base material.
As members other than the sheet-like base material, for example, a skin cosmetic impregnated in the sheet-like base material, a waterproof layer that shields the hair from getting wet with the skin cosmetic that has penetrated around the ears, and an ear hook. A rubber cord or the like for

In the present invention, "having elasticity" means that the elasticity measured by the following test method is 0.70 cm or more. The stretching force is preferably 0.70 to 3.00 cm, more preferably 0.90 to 2.22 cm, even more preferably 1.10 to 2.22 cm.
When the stretching force is equal to or higher than the preferable lower limit, the sheet-like base material can be easily brought into close contact with the face, and sufficient pressure can be applied to the stimulation plate to easily fix it to the nasolabial folds. In addition, it is easy to apply a sufficient pressure stimulus to the skin of the nasolabial fold.
Since the elastic force is equal to or less than the upper limit, the burden on the face, especially the ears due to the ear hooks, when worn is small.

Stretch force can be measured as follows. First, a sheet-like base material is cut into a size of 5 cm long and 2 cm wide to obtain a test piece. A weight (300 g) is hung from one end of the test piece, the load is applied to elongate the test piece, and the vertical length (A) of the test piece is measured after 15 minutes. After measuring A, remove the weight from the specimen, and measure the vertical length (B) of the specimen after 5 seconds. From the values of A and B, the stretching force is obtained by the following formula (1).

Elastic force (cm) = A (cm) - B (cm) (1)

Examples of sheet-like substrates include non-woven fabric, silicon rubber, and urethane sheets. Among them, a nonwoven fabric is preferable because it has appropriate stretchability and water retentivity, and can be impregnated with a sufficient amount of skin cosmetics to be described later.
The type of nonwoven fabric used as the sheet-like substrate is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include nonwoven fabrics obtained by known production methods such as spunbond, meltblown, thermal bond, chemical bond, spunlace, and needle punch. Further, for example, a nonwoven fabric obtained by subjecting a fibrous web containing latently crimpable fibers to a fiber entangling treatment by a spunlace method and heating the fibrous web after the entangling treatment to develop a three-dimensional crimp (hereinafter referred to as a three-dimensional crimped nonwoven fabric) ). Among them, a three-dimensional crimped nonwoven fabric is preferable as the sheet-like base material. If it is a three-dimensional crimped nonwoven fabric, it is easy to obtain good stretchability.

Examples of such a three-dimensionally crimped nonwoven fabric include those described in JP-A-2008-285433, and commercially available products such as JP-95 (manufactured by Daiwabo Polytech Co., Ltd.). The three-dimensional crimp refers to a curved or curled portion formed by a stuffing box type crimper or the like, and the curved portion of the crimp is deformed and rounded.

Examples of the material of the nonwoven fabric include polyester monofilaments such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and composite fibers containing polyester. Composite fibers include composite fibers of polyester, synthetic fibers such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE) and rayon, and natural fibers such as cotton and silk. Among them, PET single fibers or composite fibers (hereinafter collectively referred to as PET-based fibers) are preferable. PET-based fibers exhibit good stretchability and water retention properties, and provide better cosmetic effects.
Thus, by using a nonwoven fabric, more preferably a nonwoven fabric of PET-based fibers, as the sheet-like base material, it is easy to obtain good stretchability.

Although the basis weight of the sheet-like substrate is not particularly limited, it is preferably 30 to 250 g/m ² , more preferably 70 to 150 g/m ² .
When the basis weight of the sheet-like base material is at least the preferred lower limit, sufficient strength is obtained, and handling at the time of mounting is improved. In addition, since sufficient elasticity can be obtained, it is easy to obtain good wearing comfort. Furthermore, it is easy to impregnate a sufficient amount of the skin cosmetics described later.
When the basis weight of the sheet-like base material is equal to or less than the preferable upper limit, it does not become too thick, and it becomes easy to adhere to the base material without twisting or wrinkling during mounting. Moreover, cost can also be suppressed.

The thickness of the sheet-like substrate can be determined in consideration of the material of the sheet-like substrate, usability, and the like. For example, the thickness of the sheet-like substrate is preferably 0.1 to 2.0 mm, more preferably 0.2 to 1.0 mm. Within the above range, it is easy to maintain the required strength and easy to mount.

The sheet-shaped base material includes a first pulling body that covers at least the lower jaw and pulls the lower jaw toward the ear; and a second pull body that pulls toward the
The first pull body and the second pull body are connected on both sides of the corner of the mouth or in the vicinity thereof.
Since both sides of the portions where the first pull body and the second pull body are connected at or near the corners of the mouth are separated from each other, it is easy to handle when worn. In addition, the mask body can be brought into close contact with the cheeks without twisting or wrinkling.

Although the specific shape of the first tensioning body is not particularly limited, it is preferable that the upper end of the first tensioning body has a shape that descends outward in the left-right direction from a portion that is connected to the second tensioning body.
If the upper end of the first tension body descends outward in the left-right direction from the connecting part, the area of the overlapping part with the second tension body is reduced when worn on the face. can. Therefore, when the stimulation plate is inserted inside the second pulling body, it is easy to secure a sufficient area for the stimulation plate to be in direct contact with the skin.
Moreover, it is preferable that the upper end of the first tension body is a convex curve. By forming a convex curve, it is easy to form an overlapped portion under the second pulling body when worn on the face. Therefore, it becomes easier to insert the stimulation plate inside the second tensioning body along the first tensioning body.

The specific shape of the second tensioning body is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the lower end of the second tensioning body has a shape rising outward in the left-right direction from the portion connected to the first tensioning body.
If the lower end of the second tension body rises outward in the left-right direction from the connecting part, the area of the overlapping part with the second tension body is reduced when worn on the face. can. Therefore, when inserting the stimulation plate inside the second pulling body, it is easy to move the stimulation plate quickly to a position where it contacts the skin of the nasolabial fold.
Moreover, it is preferable that the lower end of the second tension body is a convex curve. By forming a convex curve, it is easy to form an overlapped portion on top of the first tension member when worn on the face. Therefore, it becomes easier to insert the stimulation plate inside the second tensioning body along the first tensioning body.

It is preferable that the upper end of the second pulling body reaches a position covering both cheeks and below the eyes. This makes it easy to stably fix the stimulation plate inserted inside the second pulling body at the position of the nasolabial fold. Moreover, when the sheet-like base material is impregnated with a skin cosmetic, the skin cosmetic can be permeated over both cheeks. Furthermore, when the stimulation plate is provided with a light source for irradiating light, it is easy to prevent the light leaking from the cheeks from reaching the eyes and feeling dazzling.

It is preferable that a convex piece for covering the upper part of the nose up to the base of the nose is further provided at the center of the upper end of the second pulling body. This makes it easy to stably fix the stimulation plate inserted inside the second pulling body at the position of the nasolabial fold. In addition, when the sheet-like base material is impregnated with a skin cosmetic, the skin cosmetic can penetrate the entire nose. Furthermore, when the stimulating plate is provided with a light source for irradiating light, the convex piece scatters the light directed upward, so it is easy to prevent the light leaking from around the nose from reaching the eyes and making them feel dazzled.

Each of the first tensioning body and the second tensioning body is provided with a pair of ear hooks.
In addition, the sheet-like base material can be appropriately provided with holes, concave portions, or the like in order to facilitate wearing on the face. For example, an exposed mouth portion, a nasal insertion portion, an exposed chin tip, etc. can be provided.

By fixing the sheet-like base material to the ears on the left and right sides of the ear hooking part, the sheet-like base material can be fixed to the face in combination with the stretching force of the sheet-like base material. The ear hooking portion may be a hole (ear hooking hole) formed in the sheet-like base material or a rubber cord attached to the sheet-like base material, but the ear hooking hole is preferable.
In the case of the ear hook hole, there is no particular limitation on the shape. A combination of an oval hole, an oval hole, a triangular hole, etc. and a cut line or a cut hole can be used. Moreover, in the case of a combination of a hole such as a triangular hole and a cut line or a cut hole, there is no particular limitation on the positional relationship of the combination of the triangular hole and the cut line or the cut hole. In the case of rectangular cut holes, trapezoidal holes, triangular holes, and polygonal holes such as hexagons and octagons, it is also preferable to have rounded corners.

The ear hooks provided on the first tensioning body and the second tensioning body may all have the same aspect and the same shape, or the first tensioning body and the second tensioning body may have different aspects or different shapes. There may be.
The size of the ear hook hole is not particularly limited, but the length is preferably 25 to 50 mm, more preferably 30 to 40 mm.

The mouth exposing portion is a portion that exposes the mouth when worn. In addition, exposing the mouth means exposing at least part of the cleft surrounded by the upper lip and the lower lip.
There is no particular limitation on the shape of the opening portion, and the hole may be spindle-shaped, elliptical, rectangular, trapezoidal, oval, or the like. In the case of rectangles and trapezoids, it is also preferable to give rounded corners.

The size of the exposed mouth portion is not particularly limited, but the width is preferably 40 to 60 mm, more preferably 45 to 55 mm. The length is preferably 16 to 30 mm, more preferably 20 to 25 mm.
The size of the mouth-exposing portion can be appropriately determined in consideration of the material of the sheet-like base material and the like.

The nasal insertion portion is a portion that exposes the tip of the nose when worn. When the tip of the nose is exposed from the nose insertion part when worn, the upper part of the nose insertion part of the sheet-like base material can cover part or all of the nose.
The nasal insert may be a hole or an incision. The shape of the hole is not particularly limited, and may be concave, double trapezoidal, trapezoidal, triangular, circular, elliptical, oval, drop-shaped, or the like. In the case of a shape in which two trapezoids are overlapped, a trapezoid, or a triangle, it is also preferable to give rounded corners. In the case of the notch, it is preferable to use a concave shape.

The size of the nasal insertion part is not particularly limited, but the width is preferably 30 to 50 mm, more preferably 30 to 45 mm. The length (the height from the base to the top surface in the case of concave characters) is preferably 10 to 20 mm, more preferably 15 to 20 mm.
When the sheet-like substrate does not cover part or all of the nose, the upper side of the sheet-like substrate may be cut in a concave shape along the contour of the outer nose without forming the nostril insertion holes.

The chin exposing portion is a portion that exposes the chin when worn. The exposed chin may be a hole or a recess as long as the chin can be exposed.

[Skin cosmetics]
The sheet-like base material of the mask body may be impregnated with a skin cosmetic. By impregnating the sheet-shaped base material with the skin cosmetic, the moisturizing effect of the stratum corneum can impart moisture and firmness to the skin. In addition, by impregnating the skin cosmetic, the adhesiveness between the sheet-like base material and the skin is increased, and the stimulation plate can be more reliably fixed to the nasolabial fold.
The sheet-like base material may be impregnated with the skin cosmetic in advance, or the user may impregnate the sheet-like base material with the skin cosmetic before use.

Skin cosmetics include, for example, serums, lotions (including whitening and UV protection), emulsified compositions containing oily components (emulsions), cleansing agents, and the like.
The composition of the skin cosmetic is not particularly limited, but polyhydric alcohols such as glycerin, dipropylene glycol, 1-3 butylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, sorbitol, and propylene glycol are used from the viewpoint of enhancing adhesion and enhancing moisturizing effect. preferably containing.

The content of the polyhydric alcohol in the skin cosmetic can be determined in consideration of the desired effect of the skin cosmetic, and is preferably 10-50% by mass, more preferably 15-30% by mass.
If the polyhydric alcohol content is at least the preferred lower limit, sufficient mask adhesion and moisturizing effect can be obtained, and the user can feel that nasolabial folds and fine wrinkles are reduced. In addition, it is easy to increase the adhesion between the sheet-like base material and the skin.
In addition, when the polyhydric alcohol content is equal to or less than the above preferable upper limit, sticky feeling on the skin after use can be suppressed.

The skin cosmetic may be impregnated in the entire sheet-like base material constituting the mask main body, or may be partially impregnated in the sheet-like base material.
When ear hook holes are formed in the sheet-like base material, skin cosmetics are impregnated around the ear hook holes, which come into contact with the ears when worn, from the viewpoint of improving the handleability when worn and preventing deterioration of the feeling of wearing. I prefer not to.

It is preferable to impregnate the nasolabial fold portion and the portion in contact with the periphery thereof with a skin cosmetic. As a result, the sheet-like base material in the portion contacting the nasolabial fold portion and its periphery adheres closely to the skin and the stimulation plate, making it easier to more reliably fix the stimulation plate to the nasolabial fold portion.
In addition, other than the nasolabial area and its surroundings, for example, skin cosmetics are also applied to areas that come into contact with areas where moisturizing effects of skin cosmetics are required, such as cheeks, the vicinity of cheekbones, around the mouth, and the tip of the chin. Impregnation is preferred.

The amount of the skin cosmetic impregnated into the sheet-like substrate is not particularly limited, but the mass (C) of the sheet-like substrate in the portion to be impregnated with the skin cosmetic (hereinafter referred to as the portion to be impregnated) and the skin cosmetic to be impregnated. The impregnation ratio represented by the mass ratio (D/C) to the mass (D) of the material is preferably 5-13, more preferably 7-20.
When the impregnation ratio is equal to or higher than the preferable lower limit, it becomes easier to adhere to the skin and stimulation plate.
In addition, since the impregnation ratio is equal to or lower than the preferable upper limit, problems such as dripping of the skin cosmetic can be easily avoided.
A specific mass ratio can be determined in consideration of the material of the sheet-like substrate and the type of skin cosmetic.

As a method for impregnating the sheet-shaped base material with the skin cosmetic, a known method can be used, and examples thereof include a method of impregnating the part to be impregnated by applying with a brush and a method of impregnating by spraying.

[Beauty treatment method]
(Cosmetic treatment method using mask body 20)
A cosmetic treatment method using the stimulator 10 of FIG. 1 and the mask body 20 of FIG. 4 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing an example of a state in which the mask body according to the present invention is worn on the face, and FIG. 7 shows a cosmetic treatment method performed by fixing a stimulation plate to the nasolabial fold.

Although FIGS. 6 and 7 are perspective views from the left side of the face, the same applies to the right side of the face. 7 shows only the stimulation plate 13 and part of the lead wires 12 of the stimulation device 10, and the illustration of the stimulation device main body 11 and the lead wires 12 in the vicinity of the stimulation device main body 11 is omitted.
As described above, part or all of the mask body 20 is preferably impregnated with a skin cosmetic.

As shown in FIG. 6, the first tensioning body 21 covers from the lower jaw 82 to the ears 81 when the mask body 20 is worn on the face. Also, the second pulling body 22 covers from the upper jaw 83 to the ear 81 and reaches below the eye 87 at its upper end. As a result, the entire cheek 84 is covered by the first tensioning body 21 and the second tensioning body 22 . The mouth 86 is exposed at the mouth exposure portion 31 .
The upper end of the convex piece 24 reaches the nose root 88c. It is covered by the body 22 and the convex piece 24 .

Also, when the mask body 20 is worn on the face, an overlapping portion 35 is formed between a part of the first tensioning body 21 and a part of the second tensioning body 22 . In the overlapping portion 35, the first tensioning body 21 is inside (skin side) of the second tensioning body 22. As shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, the overlapped portion 35 is formed in a substantially triangular shape from the vicinity of the lower ends of both nasolabial fold portions 85 to both ears 81 on the outside of both mouth corners 86a.

The mask main body 20 is attached to the face, for example, as follows.
First, the center of the first pulling body 21 in the left-right direction is brought into contact with the lower jaw 82 so that the mouth 86 is exposed from the mouth exposing portion 31, and the first ear hook hole 25 for the left ear and the first ear hook hole 25 for the right ear are attached. Ear hook holes 26 (see FIG. 4) are hooked on both ears 81, respectively.

Next, the center of the second pulling body 22 in the left-right direction is brought into contact with the upper jaw 83 and the nose 88 so that the vicinity of the nasal bridge 88a of the nose 88 is exposed from the nose insertion portion 32 and the mouth 86 is exposed from the mouth exposure portion 31. , the second ear hooking hole 27 for the left ear, and the second ear hooking hole 28 for the right ear (see FIG. 4) are hooked on both ears 81, respectively.

Thus, by wearing the mask body 20 , the first pulling body 21 pulls the lower jaw 82 toward the ear 81 . Second pulling body 22 also pulls upper jaw 83 toward ear 81 .
As a result, the mask body 20 is brought into close contact with the face in a pressurized state.
The mask main body 20 has a second left ear hook hole 27 on the first left ear hook hole 25 and a second right ear hook hole 26 on the first right ear hook hole 26 . The two ear hook holes 28 may be overlapped with each other, and these ear hook holes may be worn on the face by hooking both ears 81 at once.

Next, the stimulation plate 13 is inserted between the first tensioning body 21 and the second tensioning body 22 from each of the lower ends of the overlapping portions 35 on both sides. After the insertion, most of the lead wire 12 is arranged outside the mask body 20, so that the stimulation plate 13 is operated by moving the portion of the lead wire 12 outside the overlapped portion 35 as a grasping portion. and can be moved as appropriate.
After adjusting the position of the stimulation plate 13 to the nasolabial fold 85, the operation of the stimulation plate 13 with the lead wire 12 is completed.

When the position of the stimulating plate 13 is adjusted to the nasolabial fold portion 85 and the operation of the stimulating plate 13 by the lead wire 12 is completed, the stimulating plate 13 is pressed by the stretching force of the sheet-like base material constituting the mask body 20. , is fixed to the nasolabial fold portion 85 .
The stimulating plate 13 is pressurized by the mask body 20 and gives pressure stimulation to the skin of the nasolabial fold 85 . At that time, since the second pulling body 22 covering the stimulation plate 13 is pulled in the direction of the ear 81, the stimulation plate 13 acts to pull up the skin while pressing the skin.
Therefore, an effect of pulling up the skin of the nasolabial fold portion 85 can be expected.

2 and 3, when the stimulating plate 13 has the light irradiation section 15, by supplying electric power to the light irradiation section 15 from the stimulator main body 11 (not shown), the nasolabial fold 85 is stimulated. A stimulus of light can be given to it.
Therefore, activation of metabolism in the nasolabial fold portion 85 can be expected.
Furthermore, when the mask main body 20 is impregnated with a skin cosmetic, the skin cosmetic can be expected to have a moisturizing effect on the skin.

The wearing time of the mask main body 20 is not particularly limited, and can be determined in consideration of the type of the stimulation plate 13, the type of skin cosmetic used, and the like. For example, 5 minutes to 2 hours is preferable, and 10 to 30 minutes is more preferable.
If the wearing time is equal to or longer than the preferred lower limit, the effect of the stimulation plate 13 can be sufficiently exhibited.
If the wearing time is equal to or less than the preferable upper limit, the burden on the user will not be excessive.

The mask body 20 covers the cheeks 84 to below the eyes 87, and the convex piece 24 covers the nose 88 to the root of the nose 88c. Therefore, the cosmetic treatment can be reliably performed on the nasolabial fold portion 85 .
Moreover, even when the stimulating plate 13 has the light irradiation section 15, it is difficult for the light to leak out and cause glare. Also, when the mask body 20 is impregnated with a skin cosmetic, the cheek 84 and the entire nose can be permeated with the skin cosmetic.

[Action]
In the present invention, since the position of the stimulation plate inserted inside the sheet-like base material of the mask body can be adjusted afterward, sufficient stimulation can be given to the nasolabial folds regardless of individual differences in facial shape. can be done.
In addition, since the stimulation plate is placed inside the sheet-like base material and used, even if the stimulation plate has a light source, there is no need to make the sheet-like base material transparent, and the material of the mask body can be freely selected. High degree. For example, if the sheet-like base material is made of non-woven fabric, it can be impregnated with a skin cosmetic, so skin care with the skin cosmetic can be performed in parallel with the treatment with the stimulating plate.
