Description

Facial steam system

The present invention relates to a facial steam system capable of supplying steam to the face for cosmetic purposes.

As a general cosmetic method, functional cosmetics that help moisturizing, nourishing and activating skin functions are widely used. However, facial skin care is limited by cosmetics alone, and the skin protection effect is not as high as expected. The reason is that a protective barrier is formed as a thick protein protective layer under the stratum corneum of the skin epidermis and the skin epidermis and dermis layer are separated by the protein protective layer so that the waste accumulated in the dermis layer can be removed even if cosmetics having excellent skin protecting effect are used Is difficult.

In recent years, as a facial skin cosmetic method, there is a facial steamer that can supply skin steam to remove secretions and waste materials in the skin pores and expand the pores to more effectively remove secretions and waste products in the skin.

Among the conventional facial steamers, an ultrasonic vibrator is used as a means for generating steam, but steam generated through the ultrasonic vibrator generates artificial vibrations in water molecules, and steam is generated, the particles are thick and the temperature of the steam is low, There is a problem that it is not effective to expand. Therefore, in order to prevent the pores from shrinking due to the use of the ultrasonic wave, a separate structure for increasing the temperature of the steam is additionally required, thereby complicating the structure of the apparatus.

As described above, the conventional facial steam system requires structures for generating steam together with the low-storage-capacity water tank, resulting in a large volume of the apparatus as a whole, which reduces portability.
