Abstract
Problem to be Solved
To provide a beauty treatment face mask that may apply a beauty treatment action intensively to a portion of the face and may also effectively carry out a beauty treatment action throughout the entire face.
Solution
The face mask according to the present invention is formed of a base material sheet which has a beauty treatment action enhancement region containing a beauty treatment action enhancement substance for enhancing beauty treatment action in a portion corresponding to the facial portion where beauty treatment is especially required.
Description
- The present invention relates to a beauty face mask.
- Conventionally, a face mask for facial use formed with a base material sheet impregnated with a cosmetic composition such as a cosmetic lotion has been used for beauty treatment purposes (for example, Patent Literature 1).
- Furthermore, technology has been proposed whereby metals having different polarities are embedded in the entire face mask to obtain an effect due to the weak current (for example, Patent Literature 2).
- A beauty treatment face mask (pack) for covering a portion of the face has also been proposed (for example, Patent Literature 3).
- [Patent Literature 1] JP H9-313248 A
- [Patent Literature 2] JP H10-24108 A
- [Patent Literature 3] JP 2005-120043 A
- With the technology whereby metal is embedded throughout a face mask covering the entire face (Patent Literature 2), facial skin sensation and user perception is dispersed throughout the entire face, preventing sufficient effective application of the cosmetic composition. In addition, since there is a greater variety of components, not only do manufacturing costs rise but it also takes time to separate the materials when disposing. Skin sensation is a sense such as touch, pain, or temperature, which is perceived as occurring on the surface of the body by being received by receptor cells present mainly in skin. In addition, it is generally known to those skilled in the art that the user's perception or awareness of the beauty treatment-targeted portion (action in the brain recognizing which portion is being applied beauty treatment) is an important element for achieving beauty treatment effect.
- Although the beauty treatment face mask (pack) (Patent Literature 3) which covers a portion of face solves the problem of the above-mentioned
Patent Literature 2, there is a problem that treatment of the whole face is unable to be performed. - In view of the above, the present invention provides a beauty treatment face mask capable of effectively applying a beauty treatment action to the entire face by applying a beauty treatment action to a portion of the face in a concentrated manner.
- A first invention is a face mask for beauty treatment formed of a base material sheet, wherein the face mask is configured so as to cover the entire user's face, and has a beauty treatment action enhancement region containing a beauty treatment action enhancement substance for enhancing beauty treatment action in a portion corresponding to a facial portion where beauty treatment is especially required.
- As a result of trial and error, the inventor of the present invention found that by intensively applying beauty treatment action on a portion of the face with a face mask covering the entire face, it is possible to effectively carry out a beauty treatment action on the entire face as well. The following is considered to be the factors thereof. For example, when the relationship between a cosmetic composition impregnated in the face mask and the skin is closely observed, the action of the cosmetic composition is enhanced on the portion of the face coming into contact with the beauty treatment action enhancement region through the action of the beauty treatment action enhancement substance in the face mask of the present invention, and in addition to that, through the focusing of the user's skin perception and awareness (the above-mentioned action in the brain) on the portion of the face coming into contact with the beauty treatment action enhancement region (hereinafter referred to as “action intensive portion”), the cosmetic composition acts even more effectively in the action intensive portion. Meanwhile, even though the cosmetic composition works also in the portion of the face surrounding the action intensive portion (hereinafter referred to as the “peripheral portion”), there develops a difference in the level of action from that in the action intensive portion. Among the portions of the face, since the action intensive portion effectively absorbs the cosmetic composition and the contained amount of the cosmetic composition (hereinafter referred to as “contained amount”) becomes more abundant than in the peripheral portion, a portion of the cosmetic composition in the action intensive portion seeps into the peripheral portion which has a relatively low contained amount. As a result, the peripheral portion absorbs the cosmetic composition directly from the face mask, and the cosmetic composition also seeps in from the adjacent action intensive portion. The region of the above-mentioned peripheral portion then successively expands throughout the user's face. That is, by applying the beauty treatment action intensively to one portion of the face, it is possible to effectively carry out beauty treatment action throughout the entire face. Note that in the present specification, “action enhancement” may refer to one or both of action enhancement by activation or the like of a cosmetic composition and/or action enhancement by human facial tissue activation.
- A second invention is the face mask according to the configuration of the first invention, having a perception raising means for causing the user to perceive the beauty treatment action enhancement region.
- According to the configuration of the second invention, the user may be made to perceive the beauty treatment action enhancement region with certainty through the perception raising means.
- A third invention is the face mask according to the configuration of the second invention, wherein the perception raising means is configured so as to cause the user to perceive a region including a central portion of the beauty treatment action enhancement region.
- According to the configuration of the third invention, the user may be made to perceive the central portion of the beauty treatment action enhancement region by the perception raising means.
- A fourth invention is the face mask according to the configuration of the second invention or third invention, wherein the perception raising means is configured so as to raise the user to perceive only a particular portion of the beauty action enhancement region.
- According to the configuration of the fourth invention, it is possible to cause the user to perceive only a particular portion of the beauty treatment action enhancement region, and not the whole. As a result, since the user's perception is focused on a narrow region, the above-mentioned intensive diffusion effect becomes even more effective.
- A fifth invention is the face mask according to any one of the configurations of the first through fourth inventions, wherein the perception raising means contains a substance whose color changes according to the contained amount of a cosmetic composition contained in the base material sheet, and is configured so as to allow the user's attention to continue to be drawn by causing the user to recognize the change in color.
- According to the configuration of the fifth invention, when the use of the face mask is started, the cosmetic composition is absorbed by the face of the user, and the contained amount thereof decreases. As the contained amount decreases, the color of the color change material changes. The change in color allows the user's awareness to continue to be drawn to the perception raising means. In this way, the cosmetic composition may be even more effectively applied to the portion of the face corresponding to the vicinity of the perception raising means.
- A sixth invention is the face mask according to any one of the configurations of the first through fifth inventions, wherein a substance having an effect of activating the cosmetic composition and/or a blood flow promoting effect is disposed in the beauty treatment action enhancement region.
- According to the face mask of the present invention, by applying the beauty treatment action to a portion of the face intensively, it is possible to effectively apply the beauty treatment action to the entire face.

face 100, the portions especially requiring treatment are, for example as illustrated inFIG. 3 , the temples G1, the under eyes G2 where dark circles may be of concern, the portions G3 prone to developing nasolabial folds, the corners of the mouth G4 where wrinkles may be of concern, and the jaw area G5 where sagging may be of concern, and the forehead G6. - As illustrated in
FIG. 2 , since thedecorative portions base material sheet 2 opposite to the side in contact with the user's face, when the user wears theface mask 1, thedecorative portions decorative portions base material sheet 2. - As illustrated in
FIG. 4 , when the user wears theface mask 1, the receptor cells in the skin of the user'sface 100 perceive the action of the action enhancing substance, as conceptually shown by the symbols x1 and x2. In addition, thedecorative portions face 100 in contact with thedecorative portions - The movement of the cosmetic composition throughout the user's
face 100 will be described conceptually while referencingFIG. 5 . The black dots inFIG. 5 are a conceptual illustration of the molecules of the cosmetic composition and illustrates that the larger the density of the black dots, the higher the amount contained. Aregion 100 a is a region in the user'sface 100 in contact with thedecorative portions face mask 1, aregion 100 b is a region around theregion 100 a, and aregion 100 c is a region around theregion 100 b. - In the first state illustrated in
FIG. 5(a) , theregion 100 a has a greater contained amount than theregions - In the second state (
FIG. 5(b) ) following the first state, the cosmetic composition in theregion 100 a moves to theregion 100 b due to the difference in contained amount between theregion 100 a and theregion 100 b. Theregion 100 a still actively absorbs the cosmetic composition from theface mask 1 by the action of the action enhancement substance. - In the third state (
FIG. 5(c) ) following the second state, the cosmetic composition moves from theregion 100 b to theregion 100 c due to the difference in contained amount of theregion 100 b and theregion 100 c. In the meantime, since the force homogenizing the contained amounts between theregion 100 a and theregion 100 b acts, the cosmetic composition moves from theregion 100 a to theregion 100 b. Theregion 100 a still actively absorbs the cosmetic composition from theface mask 1. - Next, the movement of the cosmetic composition throughout the
face mask 1 will be described conceptually while referencingFIG. 6 . - The first state illustrated in
FIG. 6(a) is the state before being worn by the user. The contained amount in thedecorative portion 12 a and the contained amount in theperipheral portion 2 a are sufficiently large. - In the second state (
FIG. 6(b) ) following the first state, since the cosmetic composition in thedecorative portion 12 a is effectively absorbed by the user's face, the contained amount decreases relatively quickly while in theperipheral portion 2 a, the contained amount decreases relatively slowly. - In the third state (
FIG. 6(c) ) following the second state, the cosmetic composition moves from theperipheral portion 2 a to thedecorative portion 12 a. In addition, the cosmetic composition moves from the peripheral portion (not shown) of theperipheral portion 2 a to theperipheral portion 2 a, and theentire face mask 1 exhibits a movement in which the contained amount is averaged-out. - An overview of the movement of the cosmetic composition in the user's
face 100 and theface mask 1 will be comprehensively described while referencingFIG. 7 . As illustrated by the arrow μl, the cosmetic composition is absorbed in a relatively large amount from thedecorative portion 12 a into theregion 100 a of theface 100. Meanwhile, the cosmetic composition is absorbed in a relatively small amount from theperipheral portion 2 a of thedecorative portion 12 a into theregion 100 b of theface 100. The cosmetic composition then moves on theface 100 from theregion 100 a to theregion 100 b due to the osmotic pressure due to the difference in the contained amount in theregion 100 a and theregion 100 b, as illustrated by the arrow C1. Meanwhile, in theface mask 1, as illustrated by the arrow D1, the cosmetic composition moves from theportion 2 a where the contained amount of the cosmetic composition is relatively large to thedecorative portion 12 a where the contained amount of the cosmetic composition is relatively small. - A modification will now be described using
FIG. 8 . Note that descriptions of matters in common with the first embodiment will be omitted. In a face mask 1A of the modification, in thedecorative portion 12 a and thedecorative portion 12 b, a pattern or coloring is applied such that the central portions 12 aa and 12 bb are more noticeable. As a result, the user is made aware of a portion of the action enhancement region in a focused manner. - A substance whose color changes depending on the amount of water (hereinafter, referred to as “color-changing substance”) may be added to the coloring ingredients of the central portions 12 aa and 12 bb. When the use of the face mask is started, the cosmetic composition is absorbed by the user's face and its contained amount decreases. As the contained amount decreases, the color of the color-changing substance changes, and the color of central portions 12 aa and 12 bb changes. The change in color allows the user's perception to continue to be drawn to the central portions 12 aa and 12 bb. As a result, the cosmetic composition may be more effectively applied to the face portion corresponding to the vicinity of central portions 12 aa and 12 bb.
- In addition, if the cosmetic composition contained in the face mask is reduced or the face mask continues to be worn even after it is not present, there is a problem that develops where moisture is absorbed from the user's face to the face mask. For this reason, there is an appropriate length of time for wearing the face mask, for example, 15 minutes to 20 minutes. By including in the coloring ingredient, a substance whose color changes depending on the amount of water, when the amount of water decreases, the colors of the central portions 12 aa and 12 bb change. As a result, the user may be alerted to the fact that the appropriate usage time of the face mask has elapsed.
- A second embodiment will now be described using
FIG. 9 . Note that descriptions of matters in common with the first embodiment will be omitted. As illustrated inFIG. 9 , in a face mask 1B, projections 2 b are formed on abase material sheet 2. The projections 2 b are formed on the side which comes into contact with the user'sface 100. In addition, anaction enhancement substance 16 is disposed within thebase material sheet 2. The region where theaction enhancement substance 16 is disposed is an example of the action enhancement region. According to this configuration, the receptor cells of the user'sface 100 wearing the face mask 1B sense the pressure from the projections 2 b in addition to the action of the action enhancement substance so as to make the user aware of the region where intensive beauty treatment is being carried out. Unlike the second embodiment, the projections 2 b may also be formed only in a region narrower than the region in which theaction enhancement substance 16 is disposed. In addition, theaction enhancement substance 16 may be disposed not within the face mask 1B but on the surface of the side not in contact with the user'sface 100. - A third embodiment will now be described using
FIGS. 10 to 12 . Note that descriptions of matters in common with the first embodiment will be omitted. As illustrated inFIG. 10 , in aface mask 1C, pockets 14 a, 14 b, 14 c and 14 d are formed in thebase material sheet 2. Aninsertion member 18 illustrated inFIG. 11 may be inserted into thepockets 14 a and the like. An action enhancement substance is disposed in theinsertion member 16. The portion into which theinsertion member 16 is inserted is an example of an action enhancement region. The user may select any of thepockets 14 a and the like to insert theinsertion member 16. As illustrated inFIG. 12 , for example, when theinsertion member 16 is inserted into thepocket 14 a, the side in contact with the user'sface 100 in thebase material sheet 2 becomes a raised portion 2 c. According to this configuration, the receptor cells of the user'sface 100 wearing theface mask 1C sense the pressure by the raised portion 2 c in addition to the action of the action enhancement substance so as to make the user aware of the region where intensive beauty treatment is being carried out. - The face mask of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
